I’m happy with my purchase so far. It seems solidly constructed. The display is sharp and bright. My only gripe is that the trackpad absorbs oils from fingers and looks smudgy and worn after just a few days.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Thinkpad is the first laptop I haven't encountered RAM limitations while working with large datasets in R. It saves me a lot of time to be able to computations locally, particularly when I'm working out in the field with limited internet access.

I wanted an AMD Rembrandt based laptop but the only ones available either were tiny (13") or had a discrete video card. The 6800 and 6850 processors had the 12 RDNA2 CU (compute unit) GPU which is where I wanted to be plus a CPU that could compete with a Cezanne 5700g CPU.
In short, the 6850u RDNA2 GPU is twice as fast as the Vega 8 on a Cezanne 5700g, the CPU is 80% of a 5700G.
Lenovo also gave a nod to fwupd which allowed me to update the BIOS (something that frequently comes with a bleeding edge platform) with Linux, no windows or USB drives necessary.
I did a "build your own" from Lenovo's site, which allowed me to specify my processor, memory, display and keyboard (backlight = yes), and battery capacity/charging speed. Any memory upgrade moved the system into dual channel and considering the scarcity of 6800/6850 AMD laptops without discrete GPUs and that I got to build it myself, it was the laptop of my dreams; or at least close enough. From ordering the laptop to delivery was less than three weeks; great.
My HP 5700g requires me to remove my Linux NVMe drive, boot into windows, spend hours updating windows, update the BIOS. Lenovo lets me just do a fwupmgr refresh fwupdmgr update.
The performance of the 6850u and the 680M graphics is great, the screen is great the sound is good enough the experience was great. Extra stars for never having to boot windows

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This would be one of the best laptops at this price. Great battery life and performance, although I didn't experience the full force of 32 gigs of RAM, because Windows 11 isn't super optimized yet.
I would recommend this to a friend!
