Pedestrian specs, but plenty useable and pretty decent for the price. Stuck with 8GB RAM, but the 512GB SSD is a nice plus at this price. Currently available for shipping, but ugh ... $19.85 shipping for me in IN. Save that by picking up in store if you can.

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.

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 👍

If your store was out earlier, check again. The Indy store restocked recently, 25+ now in stock. So I assume others have restocked as well.

I picked this up in North Jersey (Paterson) today -- they had a ton. I kept going back-n-forth between this and the Vivo (https://slickdeals.net/f/17440632-microcenter-b-m-asus-vivobook-s-flip-14-2-in-1-laptop-computer-quiet-blue-8gb-ram-256g-ssd-1920-x-1200-ips-touchscreen-only-299-99?src=SiteSearch) and the Dell 9410 (https://slickdeals.net/f/17478531-dell-coupon-50-off-refurbished-latitude-9410-2-in-1-touch-laptop-i7-10th-gen-299-50-free-shipping?src=SiteSearch). I keep feeling like I made a mistake. I'd be out of pocket $100 more after I added the additional ram. 16GB > 8GB but for $100 more w/ small HD. I like the touch screen but not sure if I'd really use it.

Quote from pippypoppy :
Damn tempting. Specs say it actually has a backlit keyboard, which is a must for me. Had been looking for something with 16gb ram, though (currently running win 10 w 8gb ram, and have seen several recs to go up to 16gb for win 11). Will have to consider this anyway at this price!
I'm gonna get down voted like crazy for this..... I've done some testing with some older Frankenstein PCs on Windows 11 for kicks and giggles. Windows really tries to maximize memory usage efficiency to keep things running smooth. It pre allocates and over allocates ram when there's extra to spare, cause why not right?

4GB was the limit for a decent experience. I could get productivity and web browsing with several tabs going pretty comfortably and with minimal hiccups at 4 GB. As well as some casual gaming at low and medium settings. Things run surprisingly smoothly at 100% ram utilization.

I personally have 32 gb's of RAM in my personal computers.... Cause why not? But personally believe that ram requirements are massively overblown.
