8 GB in 2022 >???
Very nice machine otherwise, and depending on what one does with it, 8 GB could be enough.

I bought during that deal and while certainly disappointed with the RAM situation, it does good as a travel companion to watch shows and streams on. The screen is really great. Doesn't have onboard ethernet so had to buy a USB-C to avoid the crappy hotel WiFi but otherwise does all the things I wanted it to do.
Did notice the F5 and F6 keys in the middle of the top row is a bit spongy but they work fine and I hardly ever use those keys. Otherwise everything checks out nice. Hinge seems pretty solid but I'm not a person with a lot of laptop experience.
But overall this is a solid machine. It feels and looks premium with a nice modern build. I find the keyboard better than my M1 MacBook Air.
The screen is matte which is not common in a 2K screen so it's great outdoors. It also has 350 Nits so pretty bright. The blacks are super sharp. So much so that I only use dark mode now. For some reason I find the whites not as sharp as the blacks. So expect a good movie screen at 16inches. YouTube vids looks amazing.
I purchased this during the last deal primarily for the screen and it can't be beat. Find me another 2k 16" screen under 700 and you'll be hard pressed.
Don't let the Ram police persuade you otherwise if you're a basic user looking for a premium screen and well built machine for less than $1k.
At $600 I'm pleased.
