Yeah, a pretty good deal. If were 14" & backlit board, I'd be on it. Repped.

Agreed - for a do everything, take anywhere device, I've always liked higher end laptops with 13 to 14" displays. My favorite has been the Dell XPS 13 - ideal blend of all things I look for in a travel laptop.

But as part of our home tech ecosystem (including phones, iPads and Chromebooks), this has fit in really well so far. I'd never want to have to regularly take this thing outside of the house (the 15.6" screen size makes it less conveniently portable than I'd like and it honestly doesn't seem super durable) but is great to use around the home for various tasks - kids making Roblox games, using the Cricut machine, MS Office tasks... It's almost a more useful version of our old desktop that just sat in one spot - but this is more convenient as we can carry around the house as needed.

During the return period (too bad Best Buy's is only 15 days), I'm still scanning for a better spec'd laptop for our needs at this price point. So far I haven't found one (The Dell Inspiron deals right now are fairly tempting) - and based on use to date, I won't be sad if this is the one we stick with.

How do you get around the small hard drive sizes? Replace or just rely on an external drive always?

Also, would this be sufficient for video editing and music production (DAW)?

My laptops now never leave my den, yet I, too, like the 13.3" & 14" ones, having both currently. As such, I don't have great concern for anything more than basic exterior build quality, which I suspect includes this Lenovo, which I have zero complaints in my experiences.

IdeaPad 1 is the bottom of their consumer range - build quality is not great. And this is a Zen 2 processor, using technology from 4 years ago. Not a great deal at the price, esp. considering small battery and low-res webcam and lack of creature comforts like USB-C display and PD, fingerprint reader, backlit keyboard, etc.

One more question, if the USB-C port is data only can a port replicator be used to drive a display?

Yes, it is on the lower end of the laptop scale. However, care to point out one for $399 that has all these specs plus better build quality, Zen 3, backlit keyboard, larger battery, fingerprint reader, USB-C display/PD, better webcam, etc.?

https://slickdeals.net/f/17264833-dell-inspiron-16-laptop-16-1920x1200-ryzen-7-7730u-16gb-ram-1tb-ssd-480-or-less-free-shipping
$480, $432 with email signup coupon.
Ryzen 7 7730U with Zen 3, 16-inch display with 16:10 instead of 16:9, metal build (Inspiron 5000 series, middle of the range), double the storage, about 30% larger battery, USB-C with display and PD, 1080p webcam, backlit keyboard, fingerprint reader. Only downgrade is no touch.

So literally every box checked for $2-50 more.

This model definitely don't have the fingerprint reader. I just got it the other day and for this specific model, it didn't have it.
