I went ahead and ordered a unit this morning with i7-8650U, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD for $275 and got $40 back using AMEX deal... never hurts to have a spare...

I have an Asus 15inch laptop with nearly the same specs. 8G of RAM, identical CPU, 1080p screen. As a laptop, it is really good for anything I do. That includes normal end-user junk, but also running a few VMs/Containers and creating server-side webapps.
I don't use MS-Windows, so perhaps my OS is just so much more efficient that a monster CPU isn't needed? IDK. Haven't seen MSFT stuff since Win7.
The 13.3 screen at 1080p is something I miss from a prior laptop. 15 in is just too large for my needs, but going to 768p means losing 200+ px of resolution, which I cannot have.
When I first got my Asus (also a used model), the battery life was over 8 hrs.
If this was a 10th-gen for $350 with all the other specs, I'd have already bought it - before posting here. The 10th-gen CPUs were a big jump in capability.
BTW, my desktops all run Ryzens with around 20K passmarks, so a 56t00 passmark system really isn't much different in real world uses for 95% of people.
Don't get a laptop without a real GPU if you want to do video editing, but for office and watching netflix, this is 100% fine.
The main reason I'd want a Dell is to get their better keyboards. All other brands seem to have shitty keyboards that wear our far too fast.

Big thing about the latitudes is the ease of repair. No funky hidden screws and no special tools needed.

Is it because I placed the order on the weekend/holiday?
So the answer is "it depends."
If you must have Win11 and you are non-technical (you did ask this question which could be easily researched online), then just buy a system that comes with Win11 pre-installed and spent $800+.
