Finding a decent laptop for under $500 USD is like walking into a field of landmines as OEMs will often cut deep corners or hide important drawbacks from potential buyers. This IdeaPad S340 15 deal isn't perfect, but it's one of the better laptops you can find for under $500.

I would wait for blackfriday/cybermonday. Last year I picked up an i7 ice lake version for $450. So how is a year later an i5 version for more a good deal?

Though I regretted it shortly after cause there was even a better deal for a laptop with slightly better specs next day which I missed :(
