FWIW...I bought overpriced accident/damage protection warranties from the manufacturers before my 1 year original warranty was up, and used that to fix the hinge and immediately sold them after and replaced with laptops that didn't have the issue. Manufacturers (particularly Dell and Lenovo, even bought through Costco) will NOT honor a warranty repair for hinge issues, always claiming it as accident damage and not a manufacturer defect.

I'm looking to replace a 2017 15" MBP and one reason I'm looking at Windows again is for gaming. But I see a lot of decent spec units from reputable/reliable brands, like Lenovo and Dell, but I still see people poopoo-ing the deal due to "thermal throttling." I know the basics of that term but are people saying this based on anecdotes from users on forums or are there reputable testers on YT or on websites that are testing it and proving it? Or can an experienced person look at the CPU/GPU combo and then the cooling hardware, etc. and just know it's going to be overheating?
I don't know what my budget is but I've looked at an XPS 15 since I still want a professional looking notebook and would rather not have RBG lights everywhere when I take it out the house.
that being said, if you want a gaming laptop for portability, you're going to want to look at the thicker units that tend to be heavier and have a larger footprint (which are unfortunately the ones with all the black and RGBs) since those are the ones with bigger fans and heatsinks which means none or much less thermal throttling.
with regards to the XPS line myself i've had bad experiences with thermal throttling as late as 2019 so i can't recommend

My concern, though, is whether these Lenovo "IdeaPad" badge laptops are significantly cheaper builds than the "ThinkPad" badge laptops.
