This is the one I have been waiting for!
It's only the best value for practical laptop that can game very well. Don't let the non-oled dissuade you. The matte ips is superior for actual physical experience. The oleds on the more expensive legions have so much glare that you can see yourself and every light fixture reflect straight into your eyes no matter what you do.
Plus with the AMD apu, this is the ONLY high end rig That will push 8 hour battery sessions for those of us with jobs. Just have to disable the 5080.
also.. anyone who cries about the hard drive being hard to replace.. let me tell you how the internet is moronic. You DO NOT have to remove the cooling chamber to access it. The primary hard drive SLIDES out. It is literally in the manual that comes with the laptop. No tools required or any nonsense from these reviewers that never actually touched the laptop (made me realize every YouTube reviewer is a scammer).
Only downside is HP service. But if you have Amex.. you are good for a while on extended warranty.
If it has two slots I expect both to be accessible. I'm a lot of situations you may need to remove both SSDs before selling or donating the laptop.
