As what always comes up guys, please know what you're buying - this is "Zen 3" architecture, not "Zen 3+" (hence the DDR4), and is manufactured using TSMC 7nm, the same node that manufactured their ryzen 5700u, though this chip is a lot more efficient.
Still wayyyyy better than the 7520u AMD kept trying to shove down our throats through laptops, and this one was released Jan 2023. More efficient than most laptop chips out there, so this could be a good bet.
"Ideapad" is holding me back though bc that's their plastic lineup.
It's a tossup, really. Can't complain for an 15.6" 1080p IPS 300-nit display, though it could be better.
Why can't they be decent human beings and give it a type C charger

If you don't care about the extra 1 years offer from Costco. I would get the IdeaPad Slim 5 (16" AMD) - Abyss Blue directly from Lenovo for $545 - cashback on certain sites will bring it to ~$500.
Same Spec w/ bigger battery 56 WHr, 1080p webcam, better build quality meaning Slim 5 metal housing w/ half a lb more in weight compared to a lighter plastic feeling on Slim 3.

Yes, there are other offers from Bestbuy, so just pick what you need that matches your requirement.
Especially the HP Victus deals w/ better CPU/GPU/Screen refresh, stock 8 GB of ram that can be upgraded to 16 GB or more (an extra 8GB can be had for $20-30 from Amazon), and If you don't mind the 5lbs weight,
Lenovo also has stacking coupons "extra5" and "buymorelenovo" that take that model to $492 (before CB). Definitely slicker than OP!

45% NTSC color gamut, FYI.
To be expected at this price point.

They've had this issue since the one I bought in 2010. Obviously it's built in self destruct feature that forces you to buy a new laptop.

Nope, look into a laptop with dedicated GPU. Here a example https://slickdeals.net/f/16814699-hp-victus-15-6-laptop-ryzen-5-7535hs-fhd-144hz-8gb-ram-512gb-ssd-rtx-2050-520-free-s-h

And that 5700U was really just a rebrand / refresh of the 4500U, also built on 7nm.

The 5700u a rebrand of the 4800u. The 7030u series is a rebrand of the 5800u series

You're right, I meant the 8-core 4700U/4800U rather than the 6-core 4500U.

Is this available in-store? Or any way to find out? Just don't want to pay them $15 for shipping or pick up?

Thank you so much for posting this! With all the discounts including military and my State's tax free school supply weekend, I was able to buy this for $481.50 (including free delivery and about $30 in free Lenovo awards). Very happy! Thanks again!!

$500 and no GPU. I really hope people aren't buying these. These should be budget priced in this market. $400+tax tops.
