Friendly reminder:
I'm following latest Renoir laptops for myself cos i wanna buy one too. I'm waiting for them for a long time now. When ever I post a new Renoir version laptop it goes oos pretty quick. Small businesses are buying this laptops bulk. So there's a pretty good chance this will be gone very soon too.
Friendly reminder 2:
I highly recommend you to buy three years extra warranty for $58. Since ram is soldered, any hardware issue might cost a lot excluding SSD.

***I am a little reserved about buying from lenovo again, since my legion y740 needs a mobo replacement in less than a year. I mean I noticed there were signs of something wrong 5 months in, but I decided that it was minor. I ended up sending it back to lenovo because I just want it check out, lenovo still has my laptop for about 2 months now and its really hard to get an update from them.

I think soldered ram is one of the stupidest ideas for a laptop. It gets damaged pretty easily by static, surges and few other factors and whenever that happens the only option is to replace the entire whole motherboard, I sure hope they refurbish them otherwise it's too much electronic waste just because of few chips.

You might get a better price from your employee perks program too. I didn't add this to post because not everyone has access to it but taking the price down even further is possible.

As first poster mentioned warranty won't matter much if they take weeks or months to fix it. The inconvenience of not having a laptop which you require for more than few days would change my view of warranty. Then there's a question of how often the product malfunctions as well, some of my customers complained that with HP and few others they waited on a working laptop longer than they used it because it's either wasn't fixed properly or they were send something different in return. I would say the best warranty is when it doesn't break or if it does it can be fixed in few days by either technician at the house (like Dell had option) or by taking it to nearby repair dealer.
