[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There's not much to say about it, as it's just a charger and it does its job of charging devices. The compact design is nice and the red cable clip is a nice touch. It's impossible to know how well-built it is without opening it up, so I just hope it lasts, but at least it's fairly cheap, especially when purchased with the computer during the Black Friday pricing. The main issue I have with it is that USB plugs are somewhat fragile, and this is a straight plug that will stick out from the side of the computer, an issue exacerbated by the fact many Lenovo laptops have both USB-C ports on the same side. So there's a decent risk of the connector and/or port breaking, and if the connector breaks, the power supply brick, which is where most of the cost is (not to mention the resulting waste), has to be replaced, since the USB cable is permanently hardwired into it.
They could (and should) have made it modular, made the connector right-angled (or at least have that as an option), or even made it magnetic. I ended up buying some right-angle adapters (CC) to go between the computer and the charger, which seems to work well, still charges fast, keeps the cord from sticking straight out and doing a u-turn since the ports are often on the opposite side of the outlet, and will hopefully result in the adapter breaking instead of the charger if something happens, but it's annoying to have to spend the money on them and the time researching them due to Lenovo's poor design. To be fair, most, if not all, brick chargers are like this, but that doesn't make it any less stupid of a design and doesn't excuse them for not improving it, and a mediocre design deserves a mediocre rating.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Small compact charger that is excellent if you travel a lot and want something that is not as bulky. I got this and had both the Lenovo Yoga 9 with the bigger battery that requires the 100W charger and another X1 laptop that runs with the 65 watt. Even though this is the 65W it was able to charge the bigger battery Yoga 9. Slower charging and in the conservation mode it remains at 77% charge instead of 85% as it does with the more powerful charger, but I am able to run the laptop with an external monitor and a USB C hub connected to a keyboard, the monitor, ethernet cable and a USB stick and the battery has not drained slowly or anything. This charger was able to maintain the charge for the Yoga 9 (this is the one with the OLED display that has the 100W charger requirement). The X1 runs obviously no problem as well.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent adapter. The adapter came quickly, I was able to get my laptop to turn on, fully charged! Yipppee!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing, light, better sturdier yet flexible cord than anything I've seen. Makes it easy to put away for travel or storage. Light. So light. It's actually better than the one that was shipped with the machine.
