Other than those issues, this laptop seems quite capable. I'm not too picky, but the backlit keyboard is decent, and it comes with a number pad. Yes, the construction is plastic, but it's sturdy enough. I'm not purposely trying to bend it like reviewers on Youtube do. Speakers have a wide soundstage but lack bass, which is typical for most laptops. At the end of the day, if you're just looking for a decent laptop to do everyday things, this is a very good value and can serve you for probably the next 5-7 years (or longer if you're stingy like me).
Not going to get into the CPU-centric performance: it is a powerhouse. It is known.
Regarding the iGPU: very impressive, and options to increase performance from stock. Windows power plan has a setting to allow higher performance when plugged in. AMD software allows you to "allocate" up to 4GB as "VRAM.". This isn't actually necessary... the system will allocate system ram as VRAM as a game requires it (and beyond 4GB), but some games will refuse to run if they do not see X amount of VRAM, and there seem to be some other minor positives re: 1% lows etc when doing this.
I didn't check the bios to see if you can "allocate 8GB" as some people do -- because it is not beneficial.
Furthermore, the AMD software has advanced alot since this iGPU came out. There are now options to increase performance and/or battery life via driver-level upscaling (is the game doesn't need to support it natively); dynamic resolution (software will drop Rez when necessary to keep frame rate), and this tech that claims to reduce frame rate based on what you are doing in-game... thereby saving power. This could be great for a top-down 4X game, when you aren't moving the map.
All told this system can run games about as fast as a 1050ti - 1650. It meets the recommend requirements for just about every game from mid/late 2010's; it will run new games at reduced settings.
What else do you want for $425??
Also, regarding it's wireless card: I have had 0 problems. I can stream Cyberpunk with path tracing from another PC, to this machine, wirelessly, without any problem. No problems using speed test or stability tests (ping).
A really good deal 👍

4.5 out of 5 stars
85% positive in the last 12 months (126 ratings)
Better than the previous seller a few days ago that was like 76% positive, but there really needs to be some more vetting of these third party sellers with terrible recent reviews. It's no coincidence that these are almost all posted by staff, I'm sure.

not as simple as buying 1
I'm not trying to tell you what you need, but for anyone else considering - wifi 5 is faster than what you can get from your ISP; there are benefits to 6/7 over 5, but 5 is still really good!
