Given the other laptop deals for $600-$800 that come up on OZB this one seems like a bargain.

Surcharges: 1.2% card & PayPal, 2% AmEx.

Free shipping excludes WA, NT & remote areas.

14" FHD display
Intel i5-1335U processor
16GB RAM (2x8G)

The 1335U has good reviews and unlike other recent deals in the $600-$700 range it has 16gb of ram.

That HP was a POS

This MSI - whilst better - is still not OzB level

It's almost 2025 and 250nits 45% NTSC screens are unacceptable for any new laptop over $500

With Lenovo and HP, they will send the garbage and at least quote it in the specs

MSI and Acer will shout about the specs for an OLED model but then go sneaky for these bottom tier models

"14" FHD(1920x1080), IPS-Level" only tells you it's better than a TN panel so one level above e-waste

  If you're looking for a budget machine for a child or parent - at this pricepoint - there doesn't seem to be any real steals pre-black Friday
