This was available New for this price a few weeks ago. The New right now is only $50 more.
There's no reason to opt for an open-box.

So $499.99 brand new. Interestingly, this is on par with the PS5 and Xbox Series X, $ wise. I think this is better

Got my 7yr old a Chromebook but considering something like this instead. Is it overkill for a young kid?

It's descent for the price, I would still upgrade the ram to at least 16gb. 8gb is not good nowadays but it can be upgraded for cheap.

This makes the $499 13th-gen version from Walmart back in November (i5-13420H, 16GB RAM and 144Hz screen with 4050 GPU) seem like a tremendous deal now.

Don't forget to upgrade the ram if you buy this

Your best bet is waiting 11 months for the next Black Friday deal then, in the mean time this is a decent deal for others that don't want to wait 11 months or can travel back in time to buy old deals.

Fair point. There won't be a better deal anytime soon.

Not true.
There would be.
If you have a Microcenter nearby, it has 2 very good gaming laptops deals at this price.

There would be good deals in the next 2-3 months as they clear the stock for the new GPUs. You don't have to wait 11 months, SD history is a proof of that.

Why would I need to wait or travel back in time? I bought one in November for $499!

I also didn't say this deal sucked -- I merely compared this deal on an older refurb unit to a deal on a newer generation brand new unit which some people might appreciate (not you, obviously).

It was but the one I bought had a washed out screen. I returned it. HP Victus screens are only 250 nit and not that good. Better to opt for a LOQ or Nitro.

I read a few people complained about that. The one I bought looks fine, but I'll most likely return it (holiday return period is nice!) as I don't really have a use for it.

Both of those LOQ and Nitro that I looked at were 250 nit screen too.

How do the iGPU stack up against the dedicated cards like this one? Just saw a post for a four core iGPU here...
