There are some minor nitpicks worth going over. First of all, there’s no USB-C port on the right side, which can make it difficult to integrate the computer into an existing home office setup. The screen is also limited to a 60Hz refresh rate, which can be a problem with some AAA games.

However, you can upgrade both RAM and storage and still get the discount. The 16GB/512GB 15-inch model costs $1,500 as part of this sale, a $200 discount, while the special 13-inch version costs $1,350, a $150 savings.
