Terrible display, Not IPS. Looks terrible from side view. Avoid buying this. I bought this and returned.

How hard is it to convert this to regular Windows 11? Do I just have to buy a new key?

No key needed. It's a few button clicks to get out of S mode.

Anyone know if this can be charged via USB-C? That would make the deal for me.

Overall a decent laptop and deal (IMHO) based on the included specs, price and realistic expectations (email/web browsing/zoom etc). RAM is easily upgradeable with the extra slot but as mentioned there is only one (1) slot for the NVMe PCIe3 hard drive storage. So if you wish to upgrade you'll likely have to clone the factory NVMe board to transfer to a higher capacity NVMe. It's not going to keep up with the $700 - $1200+ high end products, but for $230 or $220 it's a deal.

Agreed, for 220 this is perfectly fine. Great even. I remember the cheap laptops when I was in college (almost a decade ago at this point) and they were traaaaash compared to this. You could get by with this if you had to.
