Dell Inspiron 7425 2-in-1 14-in 16:10 display Ryzen 5 5625U 8GB upgradable 512GB SSD F/S $517.43

Dell has the Inspiron 7425 2-in-1 14-inch convertible (Yoga-type) on sale for $587.99. Unlike with most of their deals, the 12% Capital One Spring coupon [capitalone.com] applies, bringing this to $517.43. Important: The code you get from Capital One is not the coupon code, you need to copy & paste that onto the linked Dell page to get the actual coupon code. Also, you do NOT have to have any account with Capital One to sign up for Spring.

I was able to stack this with the Amex offer ($40 off $200 - Dell allows you to split payment across 3 cards so I added the pen to bring this over $600 including tax, so my net cost was under $400 before tax).

This is the lowest price I've seen for a 14-inch convertible with a Zen 3 processor. For me the highlights are the 16:10 display, pen compatibility, good port selection including 2x USB-C ports supporting Power Delivery and display, metal build, upgradability (2 SODIMM slots, very unusual in a convertible), and of course excellent Zen 3 performance. (AMD's 6000 series processors promise even better graphics performance, but the CPU architecture is still Zen 3.) The downside is the mediocre display - but it'll have decent viewing angles and contrast and you can't really expect better for the price - and heavy-ish weight.

The predecessor model (7415 2-in-1) has been well-reviewed, and this adds Zen 3 (vs. Zen 2), 16:10 display, and a second USB-C port replacing the proprietary charging connector.
