Description copied from previous deal..

Got something a little different here. Pretty nice units with under 1kg and still 2 in 1

Intel i5 1135G7
8Gb Ram
256Gb SSD
FHD
Win 11
12 Month Warranty.

These units fall under our B Grade Condition. The specific issue with these is that batteries are around 70% and the antiglare screen has a slight keyboard impression on the matt. If you are keen, you can pull the antiglare off, but it's technically part of the factory screen. Pen's are not included.

    In what way are these refurbished?

    Is there a warranty or did someone simply get a screen wipe a slap a refurbished sticker on them?

    • +2

      Probably ex lease stock

      • +5

        At 70% battery and the issue with the screen, I'd say they're well used and wouldn't qualify for "refurbished" unless something material has been done to them.

        • They are listed as refurbished to qualify for ebay discount

          • @easternculture: Actually, they are listed as "used", not refurbished. The latter word actually has some meaning on eBay - not much but some.

  • Yes same question as TEER3X, Might buy one for $69 at most

  • +2

    Cheap for laptop with TB4

    • +1

      This the key piece of missing info.

    • +2

      mmm where are you seeing this? I've just gone through the X30W-J manual and there's no mention of upgradeability. Pictures of the X30W-J mainboard also don't show a sodimm slot.

      • Yep the teardown vid was a different model number I dun messed up… Sorry all

  • +7

    Best part is I added this in cart and kept it for few hours so eBay/seller offered lower price $223 and on top of that applied coupon BFRF15 to get final price of $189.72…

    • +2

      Have added one to my cart and will pull the trigger if the seller does the same for me 😅

    • +1

      Funny thing, none have been sold in last hour. Probably everyone has it sitting in cart waiting for the discount haha

    • Ah so you were able to apply a discount even after you accepted their discounted offer?

      • Yes..

        • Nice…

    • lol I got same offer few weeks ago but no code so it came to he 215ish

      I couldnt wait till sales season so just got it at that price

  • Thanks OP bought 1

  • neato, been needing a runabout windows laptop.

  • hi OP, is the ram upgradable ?

    • +1

      See Dan24 post above. Yes, almost definitely

    • +1

      read Dan24's comment

    • +1

      Update: I was wrong, it is not

    • +4

      It isn't upgradable. I have one.

  • +4

    There is NO free sodimm slot.

    Dynabook's spec listing would also testify against this: 8GB / 16GB / 32GB Onboard LPDDR4X (4,266 MHz), you arent going to mix n match sodimm (ddr4 in this case) with lpddr4.

  • +1

    16Gb of ram will be nicer

  • +6

    Just sharing if anyone thinking of getting it. I got same one last deal paid around same price. Amazing laptop for around or sub 1kg weight. I bought it to replace Surface Pro 5 and this thing is day and night compared to it. Mine has about 73% battery life and touch screen is beauty. Normal word, excel, browsing, youtubing, I'm so happy with it. It can charged using 65w powerbank as well. I used about 20-30mins everyday and charge it about once every 5-6 days (my previous surface only 30% batt life last about 20mins or less full charge) so its a big win for me bang-for-buck factor for this weight laptop. My 2c

    • Thanks.

    • Don't you miss the high-res 2736 x 1824 display of the Surface?

      • Actually no. I prefer FHD for small screen laptop. Also I have portable 2k screen which I attached to it when I needed more Windows workspace but very seldom.

  • +5

    These are great laptops. Greate for school. Weighing less than 1KG. Display is really good quality with AES 2.0 digitiser so you can use AES stylus. Iris XE igpu is quite capable for enoding videos. Original battery is 54w. The A grade battery life was 43w and the B grade battery life was 37w. The battery can be replaced. Only con would be that the RAM is not upgradable. However I was surprised how much you can do with 8GB RAM. If you are not running a server or doing intensive graphics work 8GB is surprisingly usable.

    • Agreed. Same RAM and SSD with old Surface Pro but it was heaps faster. Perhaps the 11th gen proc compared to 7th gen surface pro 5. The weight is just amazing

  • +2

    Same amount of RAM as a brand new MacBook Pro.

    • not anymore

  • OOS

    • +1

      Back in stock..

      • Says OOS again - they are probably playing silly buggers

  • Dyna Blaster or is it Bomberman?

  • These are laptops at our office and I personally have had two instances where the fan/bearings have given up and created a very loud screeching sound, requiring replacement. I've heard similar also from others but YMMV.

  • +1

    I have problems with their grade A multiple times (sound, usb not working, condition is bad, another has cracked chassis - email multiple times no reply, not even after I lodge a return ticket)…. Not going to risk on their grade B….

  • I got this laptop for my daughters school work. Highly recommended love it and so does she.

  • This any good for a 9 year olds school laptop? His older sister has surface laptop go which has been great, but the price of them has ramped up loads since i got that a few years ago.

    Ideally something around same screen size 12 inch with an i5.

  • Damn missed out

    Let me know if anyone's considering cancelling their order

    • just keep it in your cart and check back later you might even get an offer from the seller

  • I snagged one thinking it had a spare RAM slot then went into a full Sad Panda funk when I realised the truth… Then I ordered a pretty kickass SSD to deal with all the thrashing of page/swap files…

    I'll probs be installing Linux on it, which has options lighter on RAM, so it might be fine for lightweight stuff.

    • Hopefully you didn't listen to my comment… In my defence I also drunk my own Kool aid and bought it too. It does say max memory of 32gb in the specs on this particular listing I gave them feedback saying they should highlight when ram is soldered and not confuse people by stating a max memory that corresponds to a different soldered ram config. Looks like a good machine regardless.

      • +1

        nah you're good. I found that same video for the wrong model all by myself.

        Then convinced myself it would be fine with 8gb and the rest of the laptop is pretty good.

        Then jj said he wanted it..

        • 8gb ok in 2024, will let you know my view for 2025 next year

          • @easternculture: I'm using latest Ubuntu (fat Linux) with a few general apps open including 2x Firefox Windows and 1 Chrome (~30 tabs total) and I'm at 8.1GB usage now. I'm sure I could make 8GB work for a vast majority of tasks.

            Problem is I prefer to use VMs for a few things and 8GB isn't enough.
