it says that 4gb is soldered. do you know if there are two slots for expansion, or do you need to get a single 16gb ram stick to upgrade to 20gb?

If you get any deal with ideapad 5 and IPS screen, you should get that. While you can always wair for better deals within the return period.
This deal is a better one if you can live with 14"...

My pleasure. Yes approximately 575 through some cash back on my credit card and after selling the 4GB stick for about $20. That’s the exact Crucial RAM stick I bought and it worked.

Almost certainly not, it sounds like that configuration means having one soldered 4 GB stick and then replacing the other stick with a 16 GB one, so no dual-channel.

Yeah, but you're still stuck running at 2666. That's gonna kill the integrated Vega graphics.
I'd go for one with non-soldered graphics and replace the RAM instead. I bet those $300 Motile 14"...
