According to Lenovo's website, this model number corresponds to the 300 nit IPS panel 45% NTSC. If this is accurate, this is a pretty great deal if you're only doing productivity work. IPS, backlit KB, touchscreen, 11hr battery life, 15W 8-core 👍

Unfortunately, Soldered LPDDR5 means it's NOT upgradable.

I don't see where anyone has been able to confirm it's a TN panel. Even if it is, this is a $250 budget laptop... they had to make some cuts. This would still be a great deal, even with a TN panel.

Does this support USB-C charging? I cannot find a definitive answer on any spec list.

Someone posted that they bought it and yes it does. But that's all I've seen.

Please put YMMV or B&M in the title for all Microcenter deals. We in Bay Area do NOT have a Microcenter!

This thing is a good deal. I was shopping for a $250 laptop recently and they usually only come with 256GB of storage and a 5000 series ryzen.
No no... You should look at the third number. It is 2 here which means this is 4-5 year old CPU and hence worse than 5000 series.. AMD is fooling customers who look at the first number only..

The screen quality isn't going to be significantly better on this either.
Thanks for your input still simmering on it.

Ram not being upgradable instantly makes this worse than a Chromebook and Linux purposes only. Sub 200 computer u go. U think manufacturers would get it by now. Stop copying Apple trash practices

Warning to Windows users 8 GB is far too low since Microsoft with each update uses more ram.

You need at least 16gb
I tell people this all the time and everyone argues with me!

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank BraveString9284

The good : IPS screen lighted keyboard usb c charging - just picked one up
The bad : the touch pad is not great
The ugly : non upgradable memory 8gb (5.8 for the system 2.2 for video ?)
Battery?
You don't get a usb charger you get a barrel style charger.

Given it's low price, you should just assume TN.
TN is fine as long as you are facing it directly. My first gaming monitor was a $500 144hz TN monitor. Was totally fine for work and play for years.

People still don't learn. This is Zen 2. RAM or screen isn't the issue. You are better off getting that $350 Elitebook from a Microcenter with Zen 3, metal chassis. 3 year warranty.
Zen 2 vs zen 3 isn't that big of a difference for the kind of work this laptop will be used for.

That's how they get you, planned obsolescence

If this was under $200 8GB would be OK pill to swallow.
