Wow so low of a screen res on description

16" HD Display
The 1600 x 768 resolution boasts impressive color and clarity. Energy-efficient LED backlight.

It can, but if you really care about that as secondary usage you would be better off waiting for a deal on a Ryzen 7 6800H (has a 680M iGPU comparable to low-end dedicated like 1650 max-q), whereas this one will be comparable to Intel Iris Xe (1/2 as much performance as 1650 max-q)

SD again made a mistake. 1600x768 is not FHD.

Is it the same as this one?
https://www.asus.com/us/laptops/f...00-series/

This one says it has a 1920x1200 screen, and backlit keyboard, but Best Buy listing says otherwise?

Yeah I don't think the screen is actually 768P, that's a major mistake on Best Buy's end.

Per Asus, "Backlit keyboard and integrated fingerprint sensor are optional." Better verify before you buy. Ot0her than the mediocre screen, this one seems legit for the price?

Is the AMD Ryzen 7 5800H a good cpu? Can the integrated gpu run modern games at lower settings?

Often times Best Buy gets exclusive models with different specs from the manufacturer so verify in store if you can. If this is the screen res, you will not be comfortable spending this amount and having to live with that display, absolute deal breaker for most.

No backlit keyboard if that's important to you.

For that price you should just buy a gaming computer. A15 Tuf was 699 last week.

some days you don't want a gaming laptop that only gets 1.5-2 hours of battery life.

I've got an EVOO LP7 that can play games all day but its 6LB and gets 1.5hr battery so its kind of useless as a laptop.
