At first a ultralight notebook in the business segment with good AMD processor looked quite interesting. But upon further examination it isn't too enticing.

First, the 7736U is a rebrand of 6850U (Pro version of 6800U) which came out in Jan 2022. So this is 2 year old technology. Both AMD and Intel are talking about the next generation with pretty good improvements all around slated for later this year.

Then according to notebookcheck, the SSD and WiFi modules are soldered. The SSD being soldered is especially bad, since flash storage do wear out. So HP is going the way of Apple, and that is a poor decision for longevity.

I noticed MicroCenter is selling the 32GB RAM + 1TB SSD version for $800. IMO $100 is worth the upgrade especially because neither is upgradable.

Also recall HP and Costco was selling a few Pavilions Plus 14 with 8840HS or 7840U (1 generation ahead) for roughly the same price recently.

All around it is an ok deal but not exciting.

Costco Pavillion plus 14 is not a touchscreen. There are people who care about that.

Why solder the SSD? This is a horrible practice. I'm dealing with a Dell from work that has a soldered SSD it's 4 years old and the SSD is dying, the performance is still good. Under normal circumstances I would just replace the SSD. Now I'm just waiting for it to die to get it replaced.

Meh, while I like USB C, it still makes sense to include at least one USB-A IMO, with having to use a dock or adapter.

Intel new Lunar lake is already going to have RAM right on the SOC going the Apple pioneered way of SOC from 2020. They will eventually get to integrated SSD to streamline design and manufacturing. Apple can say FU to the vars, Intel may not be able to do it as much since they need everyone else to play ball for the windows world.

Snapdragon I believe all have LPDDR5X too so the the RAM upgrades coming to an end soon.

all soldered SSD is next!

3.42 lbs (1.55kg) seems slightly high given the size, but it's not terrible.

Interested as to why the wireless service says "WWAN LTE + 5G Ready (T-Mobile)" though, is it locked to T-Mobile somehow, or just works better on T-Mobile bands?

Also, does it have a SIM slot? Could be great for Google Fi subscribers like myself if so.
If you have can find info on the bands the modem uses that will give you an idea if it's geared towards Tmobiles towers.

I used to have a 3rd Gen i5 in 2011 with 16gb RAM that I considered adequate. This is a joke with 16gb of ununpgradeable ram. Don't buy this crap with soldered ram.

You're going to see massive discounts on Intel and AMD laptops. The new snapdragon elite cpu beats out the M3 and will be the future for laptops.
