Picked this up today and opened it. There is a single 8GB RAM stick with an empty slot. So memory is upgradeable. Great laptop. Thanks OP.

I bought this laptop but haven't picked it up. Is this better than the Lenovo Ideapad 3?

Yes it is unless you really want touch screen.

- HP deal has 6 core CPU vs this Lenovo is 4 cores.

- SSD in the HP deal is 512GB (twice as big) vs the 256GB in this Lenovo

- The ram in the HP is 8gb which is less than the 12gb in this Lenovo, but it's easily upgradable and can do dual channel. This Lenovo has soldered on ram (4gb).

Using a Target Red Card will reduce the price by 5% or $22.50. $427.49 before taxes is what I paid.
You can also save 5% with Discover. I am using that for this deal.

USBC docking with power delivery? Aluminum chassis or plastic?

I just bought this laptop for my son yesterday after considering the Lenovo deal at BB (that one has touchscreen, but may be a lower build quality). Decided to get this HP because of the aluminum chasis. I do not believe it has USB-C charging. And since I bought Target gift cards at 10% off a week ago, plus I had a 5% off birthday coupon from Target Circle, the deal came out to be $450 - $22.50 - $47 = $385. Not super slick, but still a great deal!

Trying to decide between this one and the $430 Lenovo I bought from Best Buy for Black Friday. Before I return one can anyone confirm if this one has an SSD slot after they opened it up?
