Or for $496, HP 14-inch Athlon-3050U/8GB/256GB SSD Laptop is also good value
Anyone knows Whats 300U like? is it ok
are the versions with Pentium / Celeron / Athlon too outdated and unappealing?
i'm not sure how it translates to realworld usage
what would u get?
or should i go with r3-4300u? https://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/officeworks/p/acer-14-sw…
Edit - oh shit … i think the latter is is actually the new design (2 USBA), they used wrong pics with old design
(I'm wanting old design with 3 USB-A's hmm)
What cpu is it? I v never seen it b4…

slower than any ryzen in existence ever
how does it compare with Pentium, and celeron N4120 plz?
Strongly NOT recommended just coz the stone age cpu, also close to 700 price tag shows their courage of daring to ask.
As for the second link, do yourself a favour and don't purchase. 1366*768 screen + Athlon CPU makes it a laptop that should've been out 5 years ago.
If you want go the Harvey Norman route, spend an extra $200 and get this instead:

The performance uplift of the Six core AMD R5 4500U will be significant over this deal. The R5 4500U is faster than any mobile i5 and a lot of i7/9s.
the 3USB-A ports make it perfect for dads, or even schools doing BYO devices
dat cpu boi
