It weighs ONLY 3.22 lbs (1.46 kg). Not bad as it looks very light and portable for a sturdy business laptop.
Lenovo claims that the battery should last for 14 hours with 45Wh and Rapid Charge technology. But, definitely should take care of the work day is what I found online.
And, two Type-C ports with DisplayPort and Charging on both the ports - never seen on a laptop at this price range.
2 x USB 3.1 Gen 1** (one Always On)
2 x USB 3.1 Gen 1** Type-C (Power Delivery, DisplayPort, Data transfer)
Terrific deal, IMHO!

And, two type-C ports, which I have not seen in the $500 range laptops.
2 x USB 3.1 Gen 1** (one Always On)
2 x USB 3.1 Gen 1** Type-C (Power Delivery, DisplayPort, Data transfer)
Headphone/mic combo
HDMI 1.4
4-in-1 Micro SD card reader (SD, MMC, SDHC, SDXC)
Mini RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet (Full-sized adapter sold separately)
Recently bought an X270 on a similar deal, they advertised one item, delivered another and couldn't care less when contacted that they did a classic bait and switch. Pictures and description clearly showed features that were not included. Only one spec option & price to choose from so no confusion there.
Eventually, after escalating, they offered a further 10% discount or a free return - You should also check Lenovo-related forums about how long they can take to refund before you rely on that!

Even if they do some mischief, do you really think that we can't go after them? We can dispute the charge, take it to BBB, etc. It's not as simple as you claim to be but these mistakes, like I said, do happen for time to time. They will eventually correct it.
FWIW, the order email that I received clearly says the part and describes the config in detail as shown below:

Where ThinkPads lack in aesthetics, they make up for in build quality and cooling performance.
