  Based on the specs provided I can confirm this is a 14 inch non-touchscreen laptop under $1500 as per your requirements.

  I'd suggest upgrading the RAM, because they won't be upgradable I think (was the case on my P16s).

  No discrete GPU so no intensive gaming, photo or movie editing
  Only 512GB SSD. Can upgrade by adding an M2 drive (need to check but usually the case)
  45%NTSC is not great for photo editing, etc if colour accuracy needed. 75% NTSC is roughly equal to 100% sRGB.
