YMMV The coupon code used by the agent was CCHOLIDAY25. Hope its useful to someone. The chat representative didnt give this coupon code to me, but when the payment link was generated by the rep, i saw it on the payment page.
This saves $25. One of our members on this thread has detailed how to get in touch with the hp rep and get this coupon for the purchase.
HP has ran out of the backlit black keyboards! You can now only get the backlit option if you order silver or rose, both with silver keyboard. This is not surprising since white backlit shows up best with black background keys. silver background keyboards don't have as high visibility as black background keys with white backlit.

2 RAM slots, replaceable NVME and WiFi card, FHD IPS screen
only downside is the not so great battery size and probably not so great build quality.
but for sub-400, this is a no-brainer and can handle pretty much anything you can throw at it, especially if you take the 2x8GB 3200 RAM upgrade.
just wish other retails can price match on specific builds.

The laptop is not bad for a started but seesh working with them is difficult. Also you can use your .edu account to get the price lower.
1. The customer service taking your cancelation request cannot confirm whether it would be processed as cancelation or return.
2. After taking your cancelation request, they would have to wait for 2 to 3 business days for the factory to respond whether they have started working on the laptop in some way or the other, irrespective of the shipping date being 10 days away from the date of cancelation.
3. If they deem it to be already work in progress, then they would process it as a return and not cancelation even though you canceled today. And you'd be subject to the 15% restocking fees.
I'm pretty bummed about it.
Hope it clarifies for all.
Anybody else try cancelling the order, was that successful?
Update: End result, got nothing. They would not budge on the price match to themselves. After I requested to cancel, they "looking into other options." Came back with offer of 500 points in their loyalty program. I turned that down and they offered 2 year care pack for free. Turned that down and requested cancel. They then said it was processing and possible 15% restocking. I asked if the Wifi 5 upgrade could be added instead but they said the config could not be changed.
Update 2: I reconnected to the chat and got the same CSR (at least it gave the same name). Asked for the 2 year care pack and they added it.
What results did anybody else get from cancelling?

Trying to decide between the Samsung, WD, and SK Hynix SSDs… apparently SK Hynix runs coolest.
Now i have to figure out how to cancel my order from last night, without getting charged for it

***Order, wait a few hours and then call to cancel. You MUST call and wait a few hours. They will add a "recovery specialist" to the call who will offer you either free 2-year warranty or an extra $30 off.
