Premium ultrabook, 2.2 pounds, and great specs and a very good ips display above 300 nits brightness and 121% srgb coverage. Ips in budget laptops have around 200-230 nits of brightness and around 65% srgb coverage

If this is within your budget this is a no brainer unless you need the touch/2-1 yoga
Just a heads up, no returns on computers with BH. Good price but having had issues with my current two Lenovo's, I may have to pass.
It should have backlit keyboard according to Lenovo website:

Best Buy website shows this exact same model with backlit keyboard:

Is this a good deal? Seems solid no? Based on specs, but good upgrade from the WM 330 or the recent Lenovo s340 deal for 420?

Very nice, especially for the 16 GB RAM and 512 SSD. The similar model has a non-PWM display with 98% sRGB, and I feel this is pretty decent configuration from Lenovo. Lots of them either have PWM or low sRGB gamut.

However, the brightness of the laptop is low though (250 cd/m2) if it matters to you...

This model does have Backlit Keyboard.

Only bummer for me is that I need 15 inche version. I would have bought it immediately.

Interesting. On this B&H listing, the Q&A section has a question that asks about a backlit keyboard. "LenovoProductExpert" replies that this model 81JB003US does not have a backlit keyboard. The Lenovo link you shared does not list the 81JB0003US, but the Best Buy link you shared does.

Can anyone speak to this model, 81JB0003US, specifically?
