So far so good?
APU: 6800H is definitely a good processor but I feel like it really isn't shining that much in this laptop. I am getting CPU Benchmarks of around 20,000 when the average is around 24,000. Furthermore, the GPU seems really weak with only access to 4 gib of memory... I would really like to squeeze out extra performance on this laptop - so if anyone has any tips I am open.
Screen: Screen is pretty good... Its 60hz but color accuracy is decent. It also works well outside and indoors.
Build quality: its "OK" definitely not XPS or ThinkPad quality. Deck has a little bit of flex but its not really that obvious. Keyboard is so easily to type on, I am able to hit max typing speed the moment I started typing on it. Touchpad is large - but still a pretty generic windows touchpad.
Battery Life: absolutely amazing. I do alot of coding and multitasking. Runs simple tensorflow code tests throughout the day without really needing to charge. On average I get around 8 hours to 9 hours of battery life.
One quirk that I found is that if you use another (non-Lenovo charger that comes out of the box) it MUST be PPS and PD3.0 or else it will charge at a meager 45 watts instead of the full wattage. On my Anker 747 it was only charging at 25 watts too... And I am not sure why.

- Build quality is excellent, feels very premium.
- Was concerned that H-series processor (I got the 6800H) would mean more heat and fan noise, but that's not the case. It runs pretty cool and is silent in normal use; even when the fan comes on (only under load) it's very quiet.
- The display is very crisp but not very bright, at 300 nits.
- The keyboard is excellent - not as good as the best older ThinkPads, but still very good.
- The design of putting ports (except USB-C) in the back is good for a desktop replacement, not so much if you need to plug/unplug often.
- Speakers and webcam are both decent, not outstanding.
- Both IR facial recognition and fingerprint reader work great - I don't think I've ever had a miss in the 3 weeks or so I've had the unit. The fingerprint reader is built into the power button and "saves" your print for logging into Windows - so you don't have to tap it again; this is such a clever design, I'm surprised it hasn't been copied by others.
- Mine came with a Realtek wifi card, which you should replace with an Intel one.
- Battery life is decent but not great - figure 6-8 hours of real use.
I do have one strange issue that I haven't figured out yet - occasionally the computer will not resume from sleep, the power button just blinks but I have to do a hard shutdown and then reboot. It seems to only happen at my workplace and not at home, so maybe there's something about a device driver that's causing the issue. Hibernate works fine.ETA: The upgrade to a 3-year warranty is just $55, to me that's well worth it.

Any one knows how long the battery last for non-heavy daily task & exact weight for this laptop?
Thanks!
