I picked this up as well, hell of a deal for a laptop like this. Screen nits at 400 is also nice, this is a hot topic frequently complained about on SD forums around laptops this year. If you use the email sign up discount code, the code above, and the ID.me discount, it drops the price to $1063 pretax. Fantastic deal IMO, been watching everything lately and I think this is the sweet spot for the price and what it is coming with. Dont forget about the extended return policy!
"Ships in 2+ months"
May not be a deal breaker for some, but was for me unfortunately. Regardless, great find OP!

Also to help others make an informed decision, the 3060 looks to be 75 watts, which is perfectly fine for this price point and a non-gaming machine, but you're looking at around a 15% performance reduction compared to a higher (95, 120, or 130) watt 3060...likely more at this resolution. Temper your expectations accordingly (advice I need to follow more often than not).

Edit: just saw gyraxis had already mentioned the wattage in the thread, cheers my dude.
This one has a 75W RTX 3060 btw for those interested in picking it up for gaming.

Not even close to the same type of laptop. That's a gaming laptop with WVA FHD 16:9 screen and a full lb heavier. This is a productivity laptop with 16" IPS 2560x1600.
Are there any other gaming laptops with a similar price range going on sale this holiday, would love to pick one up.

This uses the same motherboard and cooling as the Legion 7 Slim. Bought mine for mobile work and gaming and it works great for it. This laptops is really quiet at full load in comparison to the gaming laptops. I have it mining Ethereum when I'm not using it and it gets 38Mh/s. The only complaint is the WiFi, plan to replace it with an Intel AX210.
indeed, however worth noting as others have, this 3060 maxq has a 75w limit, while the one found in the legion 7 slim has a 90w limit.

Wow, way to be cheap on a 1k laptop...
what?

Quote from JesseR6576 :
Tough to hold back on. Really wish it was a 5800h. Anyone know the return policy of Lenovo.com offhand?

Just picked up an open box Ideapad pro 5 from microcenter for 850ish but it's having a lot of wifi issues.
they have a holiday return policy:
https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/shop...q/#returns

you might want to wait for the 5800h version to come back avail. It seems like this model is still somewhat new to the north american market.

Quote from crazyking :
still not better than the deal i got previosly. putting the link here if you guys want to compare

The better screen is well worth the extra $, but you are comparing two different classes of laptop.

Looks like a pretty good deal. Combine with Chase 5% CB and Chase reward points, you can bring it to ~ $1050

Edit: Dont forget the SD 8% CB

Hi everyone, just checking in about something

Bought the ThinkBook 15 Gen3 AMD with the Ryzen 7 5700U, 16gb ram, 512gb SSD, 15.6" 300 nit screen etc for approx $700 inc tax after cashback + about $40 lenovo credits to use later.

I understand that this one has a slightly bigger, better screen, dedicated GPU but other than that, for the average non graphic-heavy user could this really be worth $400-500 more?

To answer your question, the cooling the of the 16P is the same as the Legion 7 Slim so it will have better CPU thermals then the Thinkbook 15, its a full H series chip as well.

The screen is the biggest difference you go from a 400 nit QHD 16:10 100% SRGB screen and good adobe RGB % to a 300 nit crappy 45% NTSC / 62% SRGB with bad contrast, light bleed and etc.

You don't need this unless you want to game or heavy media creation.
