I think the description and title both clearly mention an IPS display.

I can confirm. I got in on the last deal and it is in fact touchscreen. Great value at this price point

one concern I have is that the unit seems a little finicky trying to power back up after it goes to sleep or is shut down. not sure how, if all, that can be resolved (unless this is considered 'normal' behavior)

1 x 16gb memory stick is a really odd choice.

Quote from sdfan567 :
This comes with 2 year warranty
Plus some (many?) credit card extended warranties both:
1) Cover "manufacturer refurbished" items that come with a warranty.
2) Will add a year (sometimes more) AFTER a COMBINATION of manufacturer PLUS extended warranties expire.
*CAREFULLY CHECK EXACT VERBIAGE of credit card extended warranties as they VARY GREATLY AND/OR IN SUBTLE WAYS, even on different credit cards from same bank.

*Make sure you're reading correct card benefits guide with full extended warranty contract/terms for your particular card's benefits package (e.g. Mastercard "Elite" vs. "World Elite" vs. "Platinum", etc.).

*There can be somewhat of a gray area when it comes to credit card extended warranties on "manufacturer refurbished" purchases, so you can call card bank's extended warranty line (often a separate administrator), possibly get them to email you response, and keep that response in your files.

i agree, got this for my mom last time. this is touch and she likes it

on the sleeping thing, that is a OS issue not the laptop. MS has always be hit or miss with their sleep, hibernate, etc. its a "feature" you just have to deal with.
This is an amd problem. Intel machines do not have this problem.

this thing is fast , great deal for the price. Starcraft ready.

How does this compare to the Dell Inspiron 15 3535 Laptop: Ryzen 5 7530U, 15.6" FHD Touch, 8GB DDR4, 512GB?

I have both but didn't open the Dell yet.

Dell is better. I should have bought two of those.

For anyone curious, based on AMD's naming conventions, this is Zen 2 architecture.

No dual Channel ram = poor igpu performance
single stick of LPDDR5 doen't necessarily mean it's not dual-channel capable.

Got one from the last deal. It is a touch screen and it came with a carrying case. Condition was excellent.
