You are simply judging it based on your use cases and for that, it may be fine. Any other use cases, whether Video editing or encoding, Coding with big projects, some rendering and 3D works, even high number of number processing in Excel will be very slow on this. Try comparing this with a 5800U for this kind of works. You will save huge time actually.

Here's some benchmarks from my NUC11 w/ external GPU.
Timespy 8632 (GPU 9755) (CPU 5225)
Firestrike 16037 (Phys 13231, Combined 7719)
That's probably enough CPU for most people shopping a $600 laptop.
Who codes for a living on a $600 laptop?

The problem is every comment here, you're taking personally. May be for use cases, i5-1135G7 is perfectly fine and you are okay with that. But saying that "The CPU is perfectly fine if you don't just run CPU benchmarks for a living." without knowing what other people do for living is a wrong statement. I have given you couple of examples and you don't need to be professional 3D artist or Content Creator for needing a Powerful CPU. There are plenty daily use cases.

You're the one pointing out this CPU sucks for 4K video editing, like someone is going to use a cheap 1080p laptop for 4K video editing. I'm no expert but that seems less than ideal.

My only heavy work is photo editing, although I'm starting to get into video (travel website). Even then I don't do a ton of editing work and mostly use the computer for writing.
I gather from the comments that this new version with 16GB and a slightly faster processor would be sufficient for my workload. But I'd love to hear opinions. Also.. does anyone know when this deal ends?
Or comparisons with this similar deal. I gather from the specs this isn't a much better version if at all, and certainly not worth the extra $200? https://slickdeals.net/f/15786592-msi-prestige-14-evo-2022-14-fhd-ips-i5-1240p-16gb-ddr4-512gb-pcie-ssd-thunderbolt-4-win11-pro-799-f-s?src=catpagev2

I'm currently out of the country but could have it shipped to a family house. But I'd prefer to be able to use the 30 day return policy if needed and thus order closer to when I return.

And 4K editing mainly depends on a video card, not entirely on the CPU. You have simply omitted other use cases. Here are couple of examples for you. Video Encoding using CPU (Not to be confused with Editing), Coding and Compilation work professionally, working with large datasheets in Excel or local Data stores, running scientific Data simulations. And believe it or not, a lot of people use at least some subset of these workloads in their laptops.
Just to give you an example, I can pick up a HP Pavilion 15 laptop with a Ryzen 7 5825U 8C/16T CPU, 16GB Ram and 512GB SSD with a 1080p 250-nits Touchscreen from Costco. Now that's not having TB, so no external GPU based gaming. But for Video Encoding, working on Excel data, Code compilation or running simulations, you really don't need a very color accurate display in the 1st place. Here a $599 laptop can do all those tasks easily and far better than any Intel 11th Gen Ultrabooks, limited to 4 Cores and you really don't need to spend $1000 on that.
