Terms of the previous offer
- Do not rely on the old £499 Prime-member price unless it reappears after signing in and checking the basket.
- This is an integrated-graphics everyday laptop, not a gaming machine.
- The listing says Core Ultra 5 but not the exact chip in the title; check the detailed model/CPU line if that matters for your workload.
Why the previous offer stood out
- The original £499 price was strong for a new mainstream 15.6in Samsung laptop with Core Ultra 5, 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD.
- Sold by and dispatched from Amazon reduced marketplace-seller risk compared with third-party-only offers while that offer was live.
- The spec remains a sensible everyday/student balance, but the higher rechecked price makes the value case much weaker.
