That laptop has 4GB of non-removable RAM soldered to the motherboard. With an expansion slot for more RAM.

I can't stand the new practice of soldering RAM to motherboards, even high end devices are doing it. Laptop vendors have not improved on laptops in years, every model we get at work is harder to work on and less reliable than the previous generations. Either soldered parts like RAM, taking away ports, motherboards hard to swap, keyboards hard to swap, changing models every year, changing battery shapes, all make it a pain to support in an enterprise environment. Used to be I can get a 3 year model availably from a vendor so we know we can get parts and same model systems.
