Please not be critical of the deal as I don't submit deals often.This was in my cart for few days. Today morning saw a discount of $224.17 making it the final cost $336.25. Looks a decent one for the price. Prime membership needed and only 7 hours left at this price.

    It's good student study laptop. Great price.

      Enjoy the downvotes as people confuse 'critical' with 'needlessly negative'.

    1080p screen is very impressive at this price. This could be a very good economical option for those not interested in gaming.

    • AlexF on 15/10/2020 - 12:09

      Max Quantity != Min Quality.

      Even for gaming, the Vega 3 is modestly competent. eSports and older or less demanding games will run at 720p low. What computer are you gonna get that's better at gaming for ~$300.

  • mbck on 15/10/2020 - 10:58

    Windows 10 in s mode.

    Is this like Windows rt, but with the possibility to buy and get full version Windows? How much does that cost?

      You can turn off S mode: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/switching-out-of…

      S mode is the Windows 'safe mode' where you can only install apps from the Microsoft Store and browse the internet using Microsoft Edge.

      Switching out of this mode via settings is permanent and free, I did it on this exact laptop a few weeks ago.

        Oh wow, that's even better than rt (I mean everything is better than rt)

        This is a pretty good deal. For a basic no nonsense laptop. 15.6 inch fhd, ssd. Should be quick for most office based stuff. 8gb ram would be nice but for the price…

    Nice find. I visited and it had 96% claimed.. I should've just hit add to cart, because after reading the description, I clicked 'add to cart' and 100% claimed.

    Lesson to you all - don't hesitate.

    UPDATE: Kept on smashing the refresh key on browser, and I got one while on waitlist. Phew. It's not for me, but my mum and this is sufficient for her needs.

      Sorry to hear. When I posted the deal was only 12 percent claimed. I should have bought first and posted the deal. Nevertheless, snatched one when 96 percent fulfilled.

    • aravindaiti on 15/10/2020 - 12:27

      Awesome!

    I was expecting a HD screen at this price but it's FHD. Bargian!

    • shellshocked on 15/10/2020 - 11:19

      Probably were trying to clear it due to the Ryzen 3 4300u version being available. FHD screen in the US around that price point is normal.

  • open4highway on 15/10/2020 - 13:18

    Such a good deal.. waiting for the next sub 500 laptop for the sibling

  • BargainEnjoyer2022 on 15/10/2020 - 13:40

    Now the deal is expired, price is back to $550.
    worth it at full price? or look elsewhere?

    • brosk1s on 15/10/2020 - 14:47

      Look elsewhere I reckon.

      This $599 Inspiron 14 for example has 8GB of RAM, a faster CPU but worse GPU (not everyone is going to game with a dualcore laptop though), a touchscreen with active pen support and a couple hours more battery life over this laptop.

      And I don't even think that Inspiron is a bargain. Especially when Dell eBay can take longer to deliver in-stock products than Amazon US, the monitor I just bought from them has an est. delivery date of 15-25 days from now

      • shellshocked on 15/10/2020 - 15:33
        +1

        The CPUs is similar based on the Passmark score

        https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=AMD+Ryzen+3+3200U&i….

        It not worth the $263 price difference vs the Dell you listed. I'm assuming another lightning deal will happen considering the Acer is being superseded with the Ryzen 4300u model.

        • brosk1s on 15/10/2020 - 16:05
          +1

          I used Geekbench 5 for performance figures and on that benchmark at least, there is a significant difference. The 3200U scored 640 Single-core, 1377 All-core, the i3-10110U scored 1077 Single-core, 2118 All-core.

          Well thanks Sherlock, but that wasn't what he asked. What he asked was if it was worth it at full price, or if he should look elsewhere for $550, and at full price he should look elsewhere. Of course, if another deal at $335 comes up this is an amazing bargain.

  • pistachio1 on 15/10/2020 - 14:06

    I really needed that one, damn I missed it!

  • MatrixM on 15/10/2020 - 14:21

  • boxall on 15/10/2020 - 14:28

    Look at the specs they have listed:

    Graphics Coprocessor NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050

    :-)

    • Kurt cobain on 15/10/2020 - 14:31

      no knwledge regarding computers - is the graphics mentioned above good?

      • boxall on 15/10/2020 - 14:34
        +3

        This computer does not have a GTX 1050. It is embedded graphics. The 1050 is mid-level/high level (a couple of years ago)……

    • shellshocked on 15/10/2020 - 15:38

      Definitely doesn't have a 1050. Just the OnBoard IGP.

  • StevePER on 15/10/2020 - 15:38

    Dammit I've been watching that thing for weeks waiting for the price to drop and now I've missed it.

  • MrGareth on 15/10/2020 - 21:17

    I just sat staring at it because it was from the US and I had no idea if it had an AU plug included… by the time I thought "buy now think later" it was already 100% claimed :(

    • MatrixM on 15/10/2020 - 21:46

      Looks like it sold out around 11am
      How long have you been staring :p
      …jk, I've been checking back throughout the day too, hoping there's another sale somehow.
