Disappointed that you haven't been able to figure out the HDMI issues - luckily it works for my purposes, but I could see that being a deal breaker. Changing the HDMI settings/display timings didn't improve things?
I was quite interested in the Lenovo E495 myself, but it's too heavy for me...this laptop has probably spoiled me for future laptops in terms of weight. I'm not sure why the more mainstream manufacturers don't have anything equivalent for a reasonable price.
The other issue is that if i do 10 restarts in a row, i will definitely catch it in a state of incomplete restart where after it shows the restarting blue screen and then go to the black screen, it just hang after that and wouldn't go on to the bios boot screen. no problem ever with shutdown or sleep and awake from sleep. already turn off the fast startup thingy.
seems like no one else has these two problems and i've gone through 3 different m142. I am starting to think it could be related to some kind of driver issues? not sure what could be since i use the latest amd chipset and graphic drivers from amd itself.
I did a complete OS install so maybe missing some weird drivers or some settings somewhere?
Also, what do you mean by "basic usage"? Some web pages are pretty CPU intensive.

Also, has anyone experienced weird slowdowns that last a few seconds?

I suppose that windows should be smart enough by now to minimize or not use any virtual memory unless absolutely needed. but then again you never know... if you have 16gb ram you can completely disable the virtual memory and know that you will unlikely run out of ram as well as ensure that windows will not try to use virtual memory inadvertently.
weird slowdowns maybe due to cpu being overwhelmed sometimes? also i supposed things could sometimes slow down momentarily if you are having to use virtual memory?
Edit: This is on firefox by the way.

I even order a 32gb sodimm and that worked fine on the motile. so you can even go to 32gb ram even if just one sodimm slot. but i decided that a little overkill so that 32gb is going into my lenovo p52 laptop ws

However, the RAM benchmark is in the 45th percentile (43.7) with a 176 nanosecond latency. Again, I have no idea if this is that bad, but can anyone try the benchmark tool with their 16gb chips? Or perhaps recommend a better tool?
