This is because B&H Photo observes the sabbath, which means they cannot operate from Friday sundown to Saturday sundown. Hence the reason we can't order this on Saturday morning or afternoon.

Great laptop. I've had this model since October-ish. I leave it plugged in most of the time but battery life when unplugged has been fair. I upgraded the RAM to 64gb. It's been able to handle all of the programming, designing and gaming I've thrown at it.

What on earth do you need 64GB of RAM in this laptop for?

Yes. The 3xxx series of GPUs are 2.1 by default. For whatever reason it sometimes gets marketed as 8k@60hz vs just saying HDMI 2.1.

Does yours have issues with sleep? I have the AMD version with no S3 sleep and it's infuriating that the laptop basically keeps running while it's supposed to be in sleep mode... regularly gets locked into sleep mode/will not wake from sleep because of this and the keyboard backlights turn on for no reason. I had it in sleep mode from when I unplugged it fully charged, to leave and get on a flight (about 3.5 hrs unplugged) to find the laptop wake from "sleep" with 24% battery left. I posted about it on another thread when someone pointed me to the S3 sleep issue which is apparantly very common but it's my first time running across it.

I love everything about this laptop except for the S3 sleep issues are ridiculous. I upgraded from a Legion 5 Gen 6 which was amazing with no issues, crazy how different this model is. Most people say to use Hibernate instead but that's too slow for me. Lenovo's CS will simply not help with this matter because they said it's a Windows feature.

I run multiple VMs at times along with a docker container or two. Mostly testing and developing HMI interfaces. I've only ever hit 40gb of usage, but I'm glad to have the headroom.

I also have the 6900hx version. I bought both for testing and didn't return one in time. My AMD version did have some sleep / crashing / wifi issues. I swapped out the wifi card for the intel version and haven't experienced any consistent issues since.

Does Lenovo price match? Or anyone? The cashback is better on other sites or I might be able to get more discounts
