This seems to be a good deal for the higher end specs I was looking for. I have a kid going off to college and was specifically looking for a laptop with the following criteria at the lowest price: 14" touchscreen, 32gb RAM, Copilot+, either a Intel Core Ultra 9 or a Ryzen AI 9 processor. Most in this price range either didn't have the RAM or the high-end processor. If you're looking for AI capabilities, make sure they have enough TOPS to handle it. Copilot requires at least 40, and even some gaming laptops that have great specs didn't have this. This one has 48 NPU and up to 67 GPU.

Here are the official specs:

Another Copilot+ option that is a step down in processor but a nicer display. I was able to check this out in person at my local warehouse and build quality feels really solid.
