Great deal for a sub $300 for home use.

The display is good enough for indoor at 250 nits, 1080p IPS True Colors. Other Lenovo laptops use horrible TN to hit this price. I use a 250 nit Gateway/Dell with no issues indoors.
The Intel 12th Gen i3 pairs great with another 8GB ram ($15). The 12th Gen 6-core is big improvement from 8th/10th Gen 4-core.
Wifi 6 has the strong Intel 2x2. Other laptops use weaker 1x1.
Charging uses the more reliable power port. It doesn't appear to use USB-C charging.

You can't expect highest spec parts for $250, but this dell use quality name brand parts.
If you do lots of work outdoors and travel alot, look for 400-500 nit, go for Latitude 5000/7000 series/Thinkpad L13, expect to spend $250(refurb) to $600(new)

Buy these x86 windows laptop with extra RAM slots, its going to be less available once ARM X on Windows goes mainstream in 1-3 years. Probably be the last x86 laptop that your ever need.

This laptop may also include space for a 2.5" SATA SSD HD with caddy and cable for extra expansion.

On my chromebooks I can attach USB C charger to any side and it charges my chromebook but this laptop has special port for charging and can't use USB C charger for charging this laptop

There are many disassembly videos on YouTube showing ram install and upgrading options.

It is very solid. But probably a lot of people are keeping their powder dry for Black Friday deals. Heck you might see this for $199 as a doorbuster type deal.
But probably not online

I have an extra 8gb RAM sitting around but with different specs (DDR4-2400 and CL17). Would it be fine if I add it to this laptop to make it 16GB memory?

That will make the RAM go down in speed from 2666 to 2400. You'd have more total memory but it would make things run slower.

Just received mine today, opened it up and was pleasantly surprised to find caddy, cable and screws for a 2.5" drive.
