This was first listed in the Costco holiday brochures that were sent out, price $699.
Then ~week ago, Costco's holiday savings website section (and on the app too) updated, showing $799-$200 = $599. The advertised price dropped $100!
It originally showed on Nov 28 only. But now the latest ads show 11/29-12/2 (online only).
This is why some of you guys are posting conflicting info--Costco itself has beeen inconsistent in their advertisements for this. But it's clearly going to be $599. I think this is the best deal for an all-around 15/16 incher this season *for non-gamers*. This can do all the office stuff, video editing, 100% sRGB IPS screen that won't have burn-in (newer OLEDs aren't as susceptible but still do, so OLEDs may be sexy but not as good for long long-term longevity). My only real concern is that it's potentially hot/loud. I saw consistent reviews on both Swift Go 14s and 16s saying this. Build quality is lower than the Lenovo Yoga as well.
Out of curiousity, I installed Counterstrike 2 on it to see how it would fare and my testing showed nearly constant thermal throttling with it only able to achieve about 50% of the fps that the integrated GPU can on a laptop with better cooling.

Touchscreen kills it as usual. Buy a tablet if you want touch.
