The QHD screen is brighter with better color accuracy at 100% sRGB coverage. You will be interacting with the screen the most, so why not get the best available?
Edit: The QHD is a gsync panel along with dolby vision support. Also the 16:10 ratio on the QHD is subjectively better for document processing. You can see the full specs on Lenovo's website.
Good to know, the specs are not accurately reflected on the Walmart page for the QHD display. To me, I would have preferred FHD with G-Sync and Dolby Vision if the QHD was missing those features. If QHD is available with VRR and DV, that would be the clear winner. It's just not going to get the frame rates you might want for competitive FPS shooters with a laptop level RTX 3070 at QHD. Desktop QHD it will not reach 165hz, so the monitor will not be fully utilized.

If I use it mostly with a VR headset like hp reverb g2, is it better to get the 1080p display to spare some gpu power for the VR headset as the built-in display would require less?

I have no familiarity with VR. I'd imagine it's pretty taxing either way, but wonder if you can lower the resolution from native to 1080p on a laptop screen?
Note this is the Stingray (white) version. If you care for the white color and light blue backlight, go for it as good deals are rare for this specific color palette. Otherwise, get the L5P from walmart
Does the Pro come in a white? Looking for my daughter and would prefer the 500 nit screen.
