This touchscreen Core i7 laptop with 16GB RAM is under $500

It’s rare to find a laptop that offers great specs and features for under $500. But today, Lenovo is doing just that via its official eBay store account. The Lenovo Slim 7, which features a touchscreen, a Core i7 processor, and 16GB of RAM, is going for $495.99. That’s over $700 off its original price. The catch? It’s refurbished.

Though it has a slightly older processor, the same model is still going for about $900 if you want a brand-new one. Lenovo’s eBay store is even beating out the company’s own online listing for the refurbished version, and for some reason eBay offers a two-year Allstate warranty with it. That’s double the coverage from the factory store.

We called this laptop “boring yet sensible” in our review. While the model on eBay offers a 13th-gen processor and less RAM (16GB, which is as low as I’d go for Windows 11 at this point), its 14-inch touchscreen is upgraded to an impressive 2880×1440 resolution.

Other highlights include a 1TB SSD, infrared webcam for Windows Hello support, two USB-C/Thunderbolt ports, and a full-sized HDMI port. Unlike some other recent sales on eBay, you don’t need a promo code to get the lowest price, so it should be available until the stock runs out.
