This is not bad for an entry level machine, but TN is a deal breaker for many. I am expecting low $300s to get a 11th Gen i3/ IPS display / 8GB/ 256GB again soon.
I grabbed one not too long ago

Looks good. Hard to find entry notebooks with memory slots.

IPS Panel and backlit keyboard for $340 as a different option on the same Amazon page. Definitely a solid machine for everyday browsing, spreadsheets, etc. at a good price.

I got the certified refurbished version of this not long ago. It's a great machine with 1 ram shot, m.2 slot, backlit keyboard, and the TN panel is actually a good brightness with good viewing angles.

I'd definitely recommend if you're looking for a solid, cheap laptop.

The benchmarks on the 1115 are similar to those on the 1125 quad core (though certainly lower in some applications). I have 2 HPs with similar specs and they were frustratingly slow until I added more RAM. With the added RAM I haven't had any issues with basic browsing, streaming, spreadsheets, etc.

Try OLED screen if you need a good display.

I tried a TN panel a year or two ago when I grabbed a laptop for my wife. I had to return it immediately. Unless you have low standards or have never experienced anything other than a TN panel screen, this should be an immediate pass. I appreciate the price point of TN panels but nowadays, phone and tablet screens are so good it is impossible for me to set my phone down and start working on a display like this. To each their own and this is otherwise a solid deal. Personally, any time I see "TN" in the description, I'm immediately turned off to the deal
