I suppose you're referring to this deal: https://slickdeals.net/f/17075347-dell-inspiron-15-3520-15-6-fhd-120hz-i3-1215u-8gb-ddr4-256gb-ssd-229-31?src=SiteSearchV2Algo
The price mentioned in that deal was with the 10% discount which SD no longer allows on Dell deals. If you consider 10% off in this deal as well, the price would be $234 (as mentioned in the description) which isn't really far off from $229. But yes, technically it's not the "lowest".
This is the lowest entry point for a 12th gen laptop (if you have the amex $50 offer) that allows

1. expansion of ram (I believe up to 64gb, I have 32gb on mine)
2. expansion of storage (both NVME and SATA)

i3-1215U might not sound like much, but it's faster than virtually all 11th gen laptop CPUs.
At this price point, that's what you're going to get, or worse. It could be 60 Hz and TN instead of 120 Hz and IPS.

I'm using a laptop with a 250-nit 45% NTSC screen right now and it's perfectly fine. It's not bright enough for outdoor use, but I don't use my laptop outdoors. I also don't do photo or video editing on it, or anything else where the somewhat limited color gamut matters either.

My much bigger concern with this model is that it doesn't have a USB Type-C port.

Thanks for this information. Is the ram upgradable to listed version DDR4, 2666 MT/s ?

Yes, you can install any DDR4 sodimm sticks, but the speed will be limited to 2666.

The screen is trash. From the SD description... "250-nits, 45% NTSC."

I think I wasn't clear enough which led to this misunderstanding. What I meant was that SD does not allow the price inclusive of the 10% discount to be mentioned in the title/deal price of Dell deals.
You only get that unique 10% discount once, right? It is a one time use?

Thanks for the staff being helpful to OP. Really cleared up the misunderstanding. Just goes to show even the SD pros need help sometimes.
Lol, No, It's not helpful. The most recent example is this Dell FP deal that was priced originally at $629 (inclusive of the 10% discount) but as soon as it made FP the price was changed to '$700 or less', with mention of the 10% sign up code but no mention of the discounted price anywhere in the FP description. This has been the case with all the Dell deals in the past 3-4 months.

I have no interest in replying to you, but I thought to clear this out for the rest of the people here. Everyone can search Dell deals and see the FP deals in the past 3-4 months compared to same/similar deals from before that.

With 10% off new sign up and the state tax, most of us will be paying a little over $250 making the current Amex offer worth it on this laptop.

^^ This ... My total comes out to 252 after tax with the 10% coupon. Just enough to get the 50 off 250 from AMEX making this a pretty slam dunk deal at $202 out the door price.
