I really don't get the TDs on this. I don't think you can find a laptop with similar specs for anywhere near this price. This is an ideal machine for kids homework, web browsing, and Office applications.

Most laptops in this price range lack 1080p resolution, lack NVME drive, and lack upgradable RAM.

To each his own, I guess.

Upgradable ram? Seems solid for the price if so, since it's a 15" with an i series processor.

Yes, RAM is upgradable. There is one open slot.

Not a clearance price, just a sale price. It's in their weekly ad. Staples occasionally runs these deals as "in store only". My guess is they are trying to drive more traffic to their stores. There is plenty of availability at my local stores... but of course, that may vary by area.

This is a good comparison to the acer refurb I just picked up on eBay for $220 with a Ryzen 3 3350.
The CPU performance is really close.

acer less.money
acer 2 yr warranty
acer supposedly has good speakers
acer heavier
acer has wifi6
acer is a refurb but mine.looked new
acer has black keys, lots of complaints on the silver on silver

overall I don't know if I'd rather have the Asus or not
