Asus Platform Specification: https://www.asus.com/us/Laptops/F.../techspec/
This specific model always has 8GB soldered, for both 8GB and 16GB model and there is no 4GB soldered model. This is actually a good thing as you can just drop another 8Gb stock to the empty slot and have 16GB memory in full dual channel. It also has a 2.5" Bay where you can add a SATA III SSD or HDD.

Probably mad about the screen. Seems like the number one gripe lately with budget deals. I feel this one is decent if it fits what you are looking for. Expandable and value-priced for a 17 inch. Folks always want to nit-pick. OP working hard to share. You can use rewards towards it too. Not sure about any coupons that would work at the moment.

i3-1125G4 is a quad-core. Yes it is!!! Same as the 11th gen i5 ----This i3 CPU gets same Passmark rating at about 10000 as the i5/11th gen CPU does------- BUT the i5 has superior IRIS graphics. I have the laptop mentioned above with the i3- 1125G4. But mine came with Win 10 -- I clean installed Win 11. Mine came with a Samsung NVMe.
Beware of laptops with the i3-1115G4 CPU --- This CPU is dual core/not quad core!!! and its Passmark is 6000 or so
Here; I'll take one for the team and do for you what you wouldn't do for the other person.
This laptop will get 8-9 hours of use on a full charge. This is based on multiple benchmarks showing the exact same laptop with the 32Wh battery getting about 5.5. This equates to approximately 10.3 minutes of runtime per Wh. hence, in this version you can expect about 8 hours of casual use. You might get a little less with heavy use or more with light use.

Follow-up question: Can someone tell me if the speed of RAM matters, from a dual channel standpoint? Do I need to match the speed of the soldered chip and, if so, what the speed is?

Watch out. One such as yourself could come along and give direct links to an answer which would trump your extrapolation. I hope they don't shame you so cruelly.
Beats my answer by miles in any event. I based my answer on reading similar deal threads, I must admit. You have put me in my place. Crawling back into my hole. I certainly was not intending to mislead.
