I can’t find the release date through my Google fu, any idea? I’m in the market asap for a friend to replace a dead laptop.
-
I placed order and amazon says deliver day is undecided, will notify by email

Ugh…
1000 GB Mechanical Hard DriveOther than no SSD, this is a killer deal
-
I can’t find any info on this new model. Anyone know what the scheduled release date is?
-
I like the small side bezel, so it is no larger than a 14 inch normal laptop, very nice machine
I am surprised it doesn’t have a ssd

No idea without looking at the bottom of the laptop. However, if I’m buying new, I’d prefer it have what I want out of the box.

And usually you will pay for it. If you know how to do simple things like upgrading the RAM/wireless card/HD yourself you can get much better deals.

Yes, obviously. But RAM and other hardware upgrades are easy. Hard drive upgrades are much more work because of what is involved in installing the operating system and drivers. I’ve done it before. It’s not worth my time for the small amount of savings.

I put a ssd to replace a spinner, in my desktop, I’m not much of a tech wiz, I followed directions from a utube video, and it worked out well, Same with memory upgrade on my desktop.
I would never try a laptop on my own, I’m afraid I would never get it back in one piece
We just purchased a similar laptop from Dell with a 256 ssd and a 7th gen i5 chip for $429, so there are choices with a ssd already included.
-
8th generation I5 has 4 cores and is 40% faster, I am betting on putting in a m.2 SSD or worst case switching the 2.5 ssd is not that hard.
-
same price here
dead

I was scared of doing a laptop mod for many years, but it’s really quite simple (assuming you have one of those laptops where the HD is easily removable.).
If you have to take the whole thing apart just to get at the HD, I just let the Dell tech do that for me.
I believe samsung SSDs come with the software to clone your existing drive (assuming it’s not larger than the SSD). You would also need an external usb enclosure to do the clone.
