Look like Costco just drop the price by another $50. Beware no backlight keyboard, the CPU it Zen 2 and small ~40wh battery for those who care about spec.
There alot of 16gb/512gb decent deals


Costco usually has the better made $400 Acer Swift on sale sometimes. Swift series has better metal construction than the more plastic Aspire series.

Amazon Prime has the $650 Acer Swift X with 3050 for mid gaming


Dell has $150-200 Latitude 5000 and 7000 series. Tank build, old Intel i5 8th Gen but fast. Battery life 16-24 hr. perfect for basic business travel. I got the 7000 series with 8gb for $75 with coupon.


Walmart has $280 Gateway with Intel 11th, 8-12 hr battery. Its on fragile side. Mine works flawless as on desk the last 2 years, i never take traveling.


Lenovo Outlet/Microcenter/Best Buy worth a look.

But really how bad is that chip? Is it how much they're charging it for? What's the intel chip comparison?

It's bad. I have a 8265u, which should be pretty close in performance. It is barely usable, but even have pressure just run the win11, let alone open tons of chrome tabs.
But it's usable for work and even 1080p lol gaming. Just not smooth.

Since it is based on Zen 2 architecture and from AMD's own website, it stated it to be quad core, it should be comparable to maybe a 10th or even 11th generation of i3 or i5. Just look up performance of Ryzen 3 3100 or 3300x But since it has been configured for mobile and low power, the actual performance will not be comparable to those 2 desktop CPUs.

Most likely still decent for office work, streaming video, and light gaming.

Search for the Dell Refurbished threads. They run coupons all the time where you can get used Latitude laptops for $300-500, and Dell offers a coupon to bring the price down to half that. Sounds like he got a truly amazing deal getting one down to $75.

Good jobs! That is a better deal all around. Just has no touch screen, but it makes up for higher SRGB color accuracy compared to this deal.
