Purchased this last week so here are few observations:

Contrary to the included image, there is no fingerprint reader on the touchpad. No big deal for me but it might be for someone else.
SSD is MZVL4512HBLU-00B07 [samsung.com], model PM9B1, PCIe 4.0 x4, Sequential Read 3500 MB/s, Sequential Write 2500 MB/s.
RAM is M471A1G44AB0-CWE - 8GB 3200MHz. It cost me $15 to buy an 8GB module on eBay [ebay.com]to replace the included 4GB module and upgrade to 16GB total system memory.
More than capable for these tasks.
Ryzen chips with integrated gpu's these days can crush any normal work and basic gaming ... The only deal breaker is the keyboard not being backlit . If that's not something you worry about the this is fine.

Price is now $500. Better than $750 but still a pass. Price has dropped lower than this at least twice in the past few weeks.

It's actually pretty quiet. For me the fans kick on when I'm playing League of Legends. Having multiple tabs or YouTube won't really make the fans go on.

How many tabs can you have open before it slows down

pretty stupid cooling design. primary exhaust is rear of the laptop behind the hinge for the screen
if you have your laptop on a stand and lid closed bc you use external monitors
when you run backup software or any other type of CPU intensive task, the thing can't cool itself, overheats and shuts down after 5 mins

i tried elevating the laptop on rubber stoppers and using the cooling pad stand's fans. no dice

if that lid is closed, it chokes the heat exhaust, and it shuts down. so f'ing stupid

CPU is Ryzen 7 5800HS which is a good thing because performance is nearly identical but 5800HS consumes 10W less power than Ryzen 7 5800H (35W vs 45W).

Any idea if the price on this will come back down?

Avoiding the dell from Costco due to hinge issues.

Will bestbuy do a price difference if the price comes down in 30 days?
