The build quality is comparable to that of similar budget laptops from other manufacturers. It's decent build quality given the price and the same quality as that of most sub $500 laptops. I've never had an issue with these.

If you want noticeably better build quality, you will need to spend at least double or triple the price.

Hmm, does "WVA (IPS) Display" mean authoritatively that those two display types (i.e. WVA and IPS) are indeed equivalent??

Absolutely not. You'll want a dGPU for VR, especially high quality graphics games like HL:Alyx

Ryzen 5 5500U is a Zen 2 (Lucienne) CPU. Per the OP -- and confirmed by the Inspiron 15 3525 support documentation linked below -- there is 1 x USB-C port on configurations with a Barcelo / Lucienne CPU. Note that the documentation does *not* specifically indicate the USB-C port supports PD/charging, so it appears to be data only.

No, at least per the Inspiron 15 3525 support documentation linked below. While both panels have the same spec for Horizontal View Angle (80 degrees L/R) -- and hence "wide view" -- there are differences in other specs, including brightness, contrast, and refresh rate.

The WVA display listed as Option 3 in the table has a stated 60Hz refresh and brightness of 220 nits. The SD linked deal has a WVA (IPS) display with a stated refresh rate of 120Hz and brightness of 250 nits, which is the one listed as Option 2 in the table.
