CPU on this should be the X2E94100, like the title says, but the description specs say X2E96100. ASUS sells direct, a $2200 version of this with the X2E96100. This is a weird config that has 512GB SSD instead of 1TB, but normally sells for $1899 and the 1TB version is $1699. More is less, it seems.

EDIT: It appears the OP has corrected the specs in the deal description.

I don't know why the downvotes. This is a fantastic deal. This price "fixes" the seeming price oddity of BestBuy carrying the 1tb model for cheaper than the 512gb model for the past few weeks.

I pulled the trigger on buying the 1TB model in open-box "excellent" condition for $1,500

I've been running this laptop (1TB config) for 3-4 months as my main, and its been working great. Only thing I've found that doesn't work great is Insta360 Studio (runs, but too slow).

Same here. Only issue was finding the ARM version of my anti-virus but Webroot seems too busy to update their software for ARM so I went with Malwarebytes which does have a native ARM version. Everything else is ridiculously fast and snappy...you can tell just navigating around Windows. Quoting a life-time anti-Snapdragon person here, the "tech dumb" are the ones missing out on a super fast 48GB laptop for cheap. Mine was $1315 open box and was like new.
