[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I always get business computers because consumer products always seem to be lower quality. I've been buying HPs because their styling is nicer but have always had problems with them, so I decided to go back to Lenovo. Very glad I did as it has worked much better so far than my HPs. I have noticed that what used to be a 10 hour battery has dropped in performance to be a 4 hour battery and not sure why the performance has dropped.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Compared to more compact Tiger Lake laptops, this is a cool-running Intel thanks to the 15" chassis and cooling system. However, even compared to the smaller E14 Gen 2 AMD that I am now using (and keeping over the E15 Gen 2 Intel), it is noticeably hotter while I do Unity 3D development, and battery life isn't the greatest (surely due in part to the 15" screen instead fo 14"). Unfortunately, I wound up returning the device due to two reasons:
1.) The E15 Gen 2 Intel's RAM runs in single channel mode, as there is only a single SODIMM slot with nothing else soldered like in the AMD variant.
2) I thought the 300 nit display would be the 72% NTSC panel, but it looks like the touch-enabled variant is much less vibrant, closer in color coverage to the 250 nit panels.
Still, overall a solid laptop (for an Intel). I really tried to like it, but some of the benefits of the Tiger Lake platform are lost on this particular model. For example, the support for quad channel LPDDR4X RAM that you see in other compact Tiger Lake laptops is noticeably missing here. However, the platform has other advantages. Thunderbolt 4 is really nice, as I was able to connect it to my eGPU (Razer Core X with a GTX 970 inside). However, when connected and playing middling demand games like XCOM2 or even low demand games like League of Legends, the machine is noticeably hot. The fans are pumping out some decent heat, although not that noisily. Consequently, it is a bit warm for keeping your hands on the laptop keyboard. I wound up putting the machine in a tent mode to let the hot air dissipate away from my USB-connected keyboard.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far my new laptop is working great. No lag, and the screen works great. And it isn't the standard shiny touchscreen. It has the dull non glare screen that I love while still being a touchscreen
