[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's a pretty reliable piece of hardware. You can throw pretty much any workload at it and it will respond with not much problem.
the colors are a little brighter for me, but you can adjust that in the settings

Great Workstation But Accessories Are a Problem

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros:
* Incredibly fast (i9-11950H chip)
* Great screen (3840x2400)
* Not as heavy as I expected (excluding the AC adapter) for a workstation laptop
* Incredibly fast (i9-11950H chip)
* Great screen (3840x2400)
* Not as heavy as I expected (excluding the AC adapter) for a workstation laptop
Cons:
* The 230W AC adapter is as heavy as most laptops (almost 2 pounds!)
* Lack of accessories: There's a 4 month wait to get a second AC adapter (which means I need to haul the 2 lb adapter between my home and office each day) and the latest Thunderbolt 4 docking station shows "Unavailable"
* At times the screen will not appear on power up and I need to re-power the unit

great performance, has gpu bugs (as of 12/26/2021)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm going over the pros and cons of this workstation after 3 weeks of usage:
Pros:
1. Handles high quality renders perfectly (tested with SOLIDWORKS Visualize 2021)
2. Plenty of RAM, can run multiple heavy programs without slowing it down, but Windows will be much more generous distributing your ram to programs such as web browsers.
3. nice battery life for such a high performance system, extremely fast charging
4. camera cover switch and microphone enable button provide further control of privacy

3. nice battery life for such a high performance system, extremely fast charging
4. camera cover switch and microphone enable button provide further control of privacy
Cons:
1. The Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) has been showing up quite often, crashing the system and interrupting my work. The errors happen mostly when I switch power saving modes (from high performance to battery saver) or when I unplug the charger. The main errors are "video_tdr_failure (nvlddmkm.sys)", and "video_memory_management_internal", which are likely due to driver incompatibility of the RTX 3080. Upon switching power states, it seems like the laptop fails to deliver sufficient power to the GPU or properly turn its power consumption down, which causes it to crash. I have tried a few driver updates so far (NVIDIA Studio drivers), none have helped. I hope that this issue will be fixed in an update soon.

2. Weird keyboard layout - The fn key is on the left side of ctrl, which takes some time to get used to. It also doesn't have a number pad, which could be a problem if you need to keep typing in numbers fast. The touchpad is nice, but the force needed to click it feels above average.
3. The red TrackPoint button (ThinkPad's joystick for cursor navigation) sometimes decides to point left on its own, which causes a slow but consistent drift on the cursor. It doesn't happen often enough for me to want to send it back for a fix though.
4. The laptop is thermally stable and has powerful fans. There is sufficient air flow through the bottom vents when it's placed on a flat desk, you probably won't need external fans or cooling pads. However, it won't do well on your lap or on a cushiony surface, it gets pretty hot.
5. While the soft-touch rubbery material on the main body is very comfortable, it very easily shows marks from sweat/skin oil.
Note: Don't attempt to use the laptop GPU for crypto mining, it's not designed for it! you can damage all sorts of components in the system (GPU itself, battery, cpu, fans, ...). Instead, use this beast for creative stuff, coding, cool designs, engineering simulations, and machine learning. These activities can potentially make you a lot more money without wearing out your system!
