No they don't, only CHEAP ones.. they do this so that mfg that sold those chips on the spot market at a discount won't undercut the sodimm market.

I did the same. Costco's is more expensive but the 16GB and 4 year warranty is a better value for money to me too.

Its a shame that they didn't provide either 16gb or empty ram slot to run these 4000series to its full potential

I was looking to buy a laptop and pulled the trigger on this. I realize it's more expensive, but Costco gives you a 2 year warranty and this one has double the ram and storage and it's a 2-in1.

The screen is the real deal killer, I could live with 8gb ram but they really put the worst possible junk screen on this.

This is what happens when people who think they know open their mouth... DDR is double data rate... It didn't kill anything, you're thinking dual channel.

Yeah I think these IdeaPads are the best deal in the industry right now, but I'd definitely go with a model with 16GB and an IPS screen, especially since many have been available at basically this...

I ordered this last weekend and they kept delaying the delivery so I canceled. Also didn't want to deal with the TN panel viewing angles.

Exactly. And those people who say, oh 16gb will future proof it. No it won't. By the time 8gb is no longer feasible for browsing and general use, the other components in that laptop is also obsolete.
