$60 more for a moderately more powerful CPU than the R3-7320U version. (https://slickdeals.net/f/17275540-acer-aspire-3-cert-refurb-15-6-fhd-ips-ryzen-3-7320u-8gb-lpddr5-128gb-ssd-202-39). Both have the same weak iGPU Radeon 610M.

Passmark CPU (Single-Core)
Ryzen 5 7520U +6%
2532
Ryzen 3 7320U
2399
Passmark CPU (Multi-Core)
Ryzen 5 7520U +5%
9456
Ryzen 3 7320U
9045

Not for gaming but office tasks, 16GB RAM (both not upgradable) of this will ensure snappiness in multi-tasking, and larger 512GB SSD will likely save you the hassle of storage upgrade.

The USB-C charging capability is important for many users, which is rare to find in windows laptops at this price.

Is that Usbc also a thunderbolt port? Memory upgrade possible? Any extra SSD and/or NVME available?

This is a AMD laptop, it has a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port but no thunderbolt.
RAM not upgradable, but SSD is replaceable if needed (only 1 slot)

The information about memory is not accurate. No way this is upgradable, with soldered LPDDR5!

Same exact processor as the Ryzen 3 7320u... Just 200mhz faster. 😉

These are the Zen 2 versions of "7000 series" Ryzens. Like 5 year old tech, but made today... 🤷 ♂️ So it's new-old? or Old -new...

Yes, I believe R3-7320U is just a clocked down version of R5-7520U. They share the same design but different multiplier.
That's why the larger memory and storage here are more important if someone decide to take this one.
I have a 8GB laptop with windows 11 installed, the RAM is usually 80-90% utilized…
