Purchased an excellent one. I had mentioned here on SD I got the fair version a few weeks back but it didn't have a charger. So didn't take it. Once I saw how much a replacement charger was it was close to the excellent price which at the time was too much for my budget. But now at this price for an excellent one definitely seems like a good deal.

Not even close to the worst screen. More than enough for 99% of people. Still 100 srgb and ok brightness. People overreact to this kind of stuff. Whenever oled plus pro screens come out or whatever they are going to call it everyone is going to be calling oleds trash.

I bought one of these Excellent condition laptops and it came with scratches, wrong power adapter and smelled like cigarettes smoke. I'd recommend to buy a new one if you can handle 11th rank cpu, terrible 300 nit washed out color display, only 16mb ram, wifi6, all plastic construction. Returned same day mad dash get this thing out of my house. 👎

How does Used returned laptops make Slickdeals? And why would you want a laptop that's returned so much they have a refurbished version lineup in 3 conditions.

I picked one of these up in excellent condition, it looks good, a very tiny "dent" in the lid and still 11mo or warranty, but the gpu thermal throttles bad, some test I've done its throttling as much as 98% of the time. I've never seen the wattage hit 115, let alone 140. I'm gonna see what best buy will do but I've read that's a common problem with these laptops, too bad, because it is a great deal

I believe BB has the most liberal return policy... the real question is who buys these laptops knowing they are going to return in in few days and why???

I disagree... if you buy one just make sure it has little to no use. You can see how the battery is.
