Deal is dead.

EDIT: I'm wrong, it showed the normal price on my PC briefly but it appears to be back on sale again.

Shows as active for me.
Debating grabbing it to replace my 8 year old laptop with an i-3 5020u.

Looks like this can be upgraded to 16 gigs of ram per the Q&A on the Staples site.

Yep, I was able to get the deal after refreshing my browser. I had it in my cart right around midnight and it went to full price briefly, then when I tried again, I got the sale price. Sorry for the false alarm!

The specs look good. Low cost laptops usually are not using LPDDR, so the RAM should be upgradable.
Some people complain the silver keyboard on a silver machine and it may be hard to type.
Good point on that. In the past, most HP laptops have black keyboard on silver machine.
Not sure if that would affect the typing experience.

Bought one for pickup in case something better comes along for my 12 year old son 😂.

Don't mind spending a bit more but seems like a solid deal thanks.

In terms of bargain basement machines these are not bad specs at all.

1215U is a 6-core part with 2 performance cores and 4 efficiency cores. The fact it's a 12th gen part with performance cores means it actually outperforms my 2019 MacBook Pro in most workloads. This is exactly the type of CPU you want in a cheap machine for basic web browsing and productivity in 2023.

The integrated graphics are good enough for low end gaming or old games (many games playable at 720p, although I wouldn't recommend it for this purpose).

1080p FHD screen is good for this price point.

Unfortunately it's out of stock (as of right now) with estimated shipping January.

My only issue with this is the Non-backlit keyboard. Should be mandatory. How much to upgrade the RAM?

Bought this laptop over black friday with no complaints so far. After checking ram capacity in cmd prompts it says it can accept 64g of ram. Bought two 16gb sticks from crucial and threw them in and it shows 32gb installed in dual channel.

Thanks for posting this. Bought one to replace my wife's ancient laptop that is almost unusable at this point. She is mostly iPad based but it is useful for her to have a functional laptop on occasion.

I went to see a store demo and of course it wasn't on display.

What do you think about the screen? IPS or TN?

I know not all TN are bad and some are better than others. I'm curious about viewing angles and if the color is washed out.
