Picked it up this afternoon. Nice overall, screen manufacturer|device ID is CMN1538 Innolux IPS panel. Backlit keyboard is very nice with two levels of brightness control and off state. Will add 8gb stick, upgrade wifi to Intel 6 and swap drive for 1TB that I bought earlier. Will post pics once I get it opened. converted to Win 11 home with no issues. came with F21 latest bios installed.

Thanks appreciate it. However I successfully upgraded wireless card to Intel AX210NGW. Added 8GB memory and upgraded drive to 500GB NVME drive that I had around. The first picture is as configured from factory. The other two are after upgrades installed.

This is the "better" 4 core i3, if that matters to anyone.

Confirmed. I'm at Walmart now. No backlit keyboard on the I5 model.
Personally I'd rather have the i5 over a backlit keyboard. It is a benefit to performance and productivity all the time. While nice to have for lit function keys, other than for those that look at the keyboard when typing AND type in low light frequently, I don't see the regular utility of a backlit keyboard.

Just my thoughts on it.

Quote from LeviathanUltima :
These are some decent window laptops deals, but the screen are mostly TN which to me is a deal breaker. When combined with low nits, it really makes the exepreience crap. Colors are washed out unless you are a the optimal viewing angle.
The best 4-core i-series laptops that do manage to get down to this sub-$300 price point are typically best used as desktop replacements (so with an external monitor or perhaps in a fixed/ideal setup optimized for lighting and viewing angle) or as portable devices (so moving from one such desktop setup to another). They're rarely equipped with screens capable of proper mobile usage.

Good luck!

Just a kindly word of advice is HP bios locks their laptop to whatever card came pre-installed. Tried similar upgrades on HP and it will not boot. Will give foreign card is stalled. Even though the wifi 5 card maybe Intel, an Intel wifi 6 card most like will not work. Good Luck

Are there any instructions on how to open the laptop to do these upgrades? Thanks!

You can follow this guide HERE [manualslib.com]

I use a hair dryer over the rubber strips on the back of the machine to help removal. To pry the case use a credit card or a spudger. Do NOT use a screw driver or any sharp objects. Take care not to break any tabs.

I am not giving this laptop a thumbs up or thumbs down. I think a 12 series CPU would be more desirable. Memory is memory. It comes with 8GB another 8GB stick is $17 on Newegg. I think the Xe integrated GPU is a better option. There is no point in upgrading the NVME because of cost. Probably better off with a 12 generation i5 and spending a bit more to get that.

I guess I would say a soft pass or a coin flip considering the price.

Own this laptop. Very snappy performance. This i3 benchmarks better than some of the lower end i5's. I am disappointed by the battery life.though. The 9 hour battery life they market isn't even close.

Close, but this laptop has a much nicer IPS screen with far better viewing angles, and a Backlit Keyboard for the extra $34 (after redcard discount)
EDIT:...and the better 4 core I3 as the post below indicates. I didn't notice that. Thanks
It is more than $34 more...as if someone buys it at Staples they will be getting 2 - 5% off at Staples with whatever credit card they use there. That is why you should not included the redcard discount in your calculations.

Does the USB C port support PD-C?

Thanks, looks roughly similar to my 4 year old HP laptop.

FYI - at year 3, my battery started reporting errors, sometimes, on bootup, and then eventually got to the point where after 45 minutes of use, it might do an emergency shutdown at any moment. I bought a genuine HP battery on ebay for $35 and things are smooth sailing now. Also, the old battery was bubbling. So, glad I got that one out.
