7730u is pretty close in performance with Ryzen 7 5800H (45W) and using only 15W

Apologies for the criticism but;
$150 more for Ryzen 7 7730U - not $100 more
Title should probably include the fact that $399 gets you a 1366 X 768 display - and a crappy one at that (250-nits).
For crappy 250-nit "Full HD" add $30. "Full HD" has been the minimum on any halfway decent laptop for years. Here it's an upgrade.
The only (possibly) decent display offered (1920 X 1080) IPS, 400-nits adds $110
512 GB NVMe M.2 SSD add $110
For 16GB (2 X 8GB, DDR4-3200) add $80
HDMI 1.4b only
No USB-C charging or DP over USB-C
One USB-C port and two USB 3.2 ports
And, of course, HP build quality (or lack thereof) and intrusive bloatware

Ram might be upgradable?

If it weren't an HP I could endorse it. Too many failures across multiple product lines from them to ever want to touch HP again.

They may be 7000 series but are not based on Zen 4 technology, these are Zen 3 processors, same as 6000 series and 56XXU and 58XXU. Not a good buy at this price

This is bottom of the barrel in HP's lineup - below even the Pavilion line. Build quality is very plasticky, and lots of corners are cut (e.g., USB-C does not support display or PD, 720p webcam, 16:9 display).

HP also has a draconian restocking fee, charged even if you don't open the laptop.

This is worse than 6xxx series. This is equivalent to Zen 3 cpus. Last year we had 5625u and 5825u. AMD is reusing TSMC N7 again in 2023 and we are now doing GPU kind of renaming cpus year on year !!!
