[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a software engineer and a mathematician, this 2 in 1 offers me pretty much everything I need: Long battery life, good* stylus support and good Linux support. I installed Archlinux and most things I care about worked out of the box. (I read that it is possible to use the fingerprint reader and face unlock too but I haven't tried those myself.)
*: Stylus support is great for note taking but I would guess it is not suitable for an artists as it makes tiny wiggles if you try to draw diagonally.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The privacy guard screen is terrible. In regular mood (not privacy guard mode) it has a VERY limited viewing range - not more than a few degrees in any direction before some part of the screen starts to darken. I just had the screen replaced by an onsite service tech today. The replacement screen is no better. I am returning this machine.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this computer. It is easy to use and to set up! The battery life is amazing compared to the other computers that I have owned. I have been a Mac person for a lot of years and after this I will not be going back!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's powerful no doubt but the fan always turns on. Whenever you update your computer or install software, the fan goes off like crazy. However for normal tasks like browsing Google or watching YouTube, it's pretty silent.

Amazing Screen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] You can buy a Thinkpad without any second thought and what is amazing about this ThinkPad is the screen with 4K display. It gives you a truly immersive experience. It is also very portable.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pretty nice machine. Really like the screen.
I really wish there was a USB-C port on both sides! Having both USB-C ports on one side is surprisingly annoying.
Also, not sure why it's saying I bought the Linux pre-installed model. I WANTED to, but, Lenovo was going to charge $500 more for it than the Windows one. So I bought the Windows one and installed Ubuntu 20.04 LTS myself. It works like a charm with almost all driver support perfect out of the box. Only small tweak was the sound came out pretty awful when running Linux. I was able to find some tweaks to improve that.
