And does anyone know if the zenbook 14 at walmart with ryzen processor will ever go on sale?
Don't think it's a Zenbook so the build quality is good, it's crap build quality.
I have this laptop. I looked at a dozen or so at a local computer shop and this one stood out for the screen quality. I was dubious about the glossy screen but it lights up very bright and works well in situations that my work laptop would not be useable in. If you do any kind of graphics work, the wide color gamut is a bonus.
I had an HP Envy x360 that I really liked until the hinge broke after a couple years of normal use. Now it's going to take HP 2 months to fix. I'm not going to spend another $1000 for something and picked up this laptop used for $400.
It has far surpassed my expectations.
It feels well built to me and the excellent speakers were a surprise. The touchpad is great and also doubles as a number pad which is a nice feature.
I'm a fairly heavy Chrome user with a dozen or so tabs open at a time and this machine has not hung on me so far. If you check the benchmarks for the CPU, you'll see it's no slouch.
I will probably put in a 1TB SSD at some point.
I wouldn't recommend it for heavy gaming or 4K video editing but I don't think you can find another machine out there that matches up to this one at that price.

Maybe these issues are fixed in recent iterations, but mine is less than 2yrs old. It feels like an unpolished machine that tried to compete with more established ultrabook thin and light brands and ended up closer to/potentially worse than Acer Swift 3. Also, to echo others, 8GB soldered is laughable in 2024 - this thing is on a bullet train to a landfill.

Did Best Buy have any real bargain this BF?
