I picked this one up today. I bought the target $270 deal and wanted something similar. I purchased the Staples one for $350 that has been popular lately and then I happened to check Target and came across this and happy I found it. It's more than the Staples one but definitely worth it and with enough upgrades to justify the higher price from the $270 deal. Also it makes me happier about the purchase as it makes up for some of the Staples one's shortcomings(that one is okay too but the screen is pretty bad)
Notable specs:
i3 1125g4 Processor
8gb 3200mhz ram (2 slots upgradable)
256gb nvme
15.6 FHD IPS anti-glare, micro edge screen
Backlit Keyboard
1 SuperSpeed USB Type-C, 2 SuperSpeed USB Type-A, 1 Headphone/microphone combo, 1 HDMI
It doesn't have the rj45 like the Staples one and it doesn't have Wifi 6 either. So those are drawbacks but I think the IPS and Backlit keyboard make up for it. It also supposedly comes with Windows 10 s-mode which is a plus for me as I have no interest in 11 but I can't confirm as I didn't even go through the installations. I just put in a different drive that has Linux Mint XFCE on it.. Which btw for all the Linux people seems to work well(but I'm a beginner) The only issue seems to be that when it gets to the login screen, there is a bit of a delay before you can start typing. This happens on the 14" one as well but didn't happen on the Staples one for some reason... Anyway, I'll check back to answer any other questions may have..
