With that said, if this was $500 without the 3050, it'd be very tempting. The integrated 680m graphics on the 6800H is pretty darn good on its own!
Try to read some reviews instead of doing your guess work. I think you're just assuming all U series are low powered and all H series are power hungry, irrespective of the Processor brand, architecture or generation....I can understand bad effect of having a Laptop with Intel 12th Gen Power hungry monster. For Ryzen it is not true. Companies have released small 14" Ultrabooks with H series Ryzen 4000, 5000 and now 6000 H series Processors and pretty small battery compared to Intel laptops and they still do fine and better.

We have a Lenovo with 300 nits and it doesn't get as bright as we'd like in some situations. For the price we paid we're still very happy with the laptop, but knowing what we know, I don't think I would consider a laptop with less than 300 nits.

There are ways to more manually controlling this (disable the GPU in device manager, for example) as well, if you really need to force something.
If i compare it to the ideapad 5 pro that got 350 nits, their performance would be similar but the 5 pro has great screen and better battery but it has a capped power 30 W cpu and 50 W GPU according to lenovo video. I don't mind the looks of both, the 5 pro is lighter what is nice but this cheaper one also got me by the hooks because of better CPU and also possibility of higher wattage, not sure which one to choose Better upgradability, heavier or a bit less upgradable, less power, great screen and better battery.

Holy crap. That 6800H has 3.7 tflops! Should be totally fine for 1080p gaming.

Regarding power, it's great for editing but if you're knee deep in creation, then it's not good. From what i learned 45% NSTC gives about 72% sRGB which doesnt give great color differentiation, i've read that even some 100% sRGB arent that optimal for content creation. Now having said that, it's great for editing if you're not having to create yourself the colors and the whole production process, if you only do the edition of cutting videos and stuff like that could suffice. There's also the possibility of plugging into a great monitor for creation but i guess that wouldnt be portable.
Even indoors the 300 nits feels too dim at times if I'm not in a low lit area.
My daily driver is a MBP with 500 nits, so it may be a case of once you know, you know.

Or the OP
It's this laptop. After the AWD 20% off and 5% cashback for Amazon CC, it came out below $800:

So where would you buy new battery to use the bigger one?
