At $349.99 at Best Buy as of November 7, 2026, it is a low price for a 16-inch laptop. It suits basic work, but check the RAM and storage you actually get.

Does it have 8 GB or 16 GB of RAM?

Listings conflict: one field says 8 GB and another says 16 GB. Confirm the configuration with the store before ordering.

Is the storage 256 GB or 512 GB?

The specs list both a 256 GB drive and a 512 GB SSD. Check the exact model number to be sure.

It uses integrated AMD graphics and a 60Hz screen, so only light or older games run well.
