One of USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 on left can be upgraded to USB4 40Gbps via BIOS update after June 28th, 2022
Check under the PORTS section in the below Platform Specification Document:

Side note, I extended my warranty for super cheap. The Legion Ultimate Support (many get 1 year included) is the best around for the price. You can add another year for around $50 I think. use code REMOTE10 for 10% off. It shows up in the Vantage software. For me, this was just piece of mind. Never had a hiccup though to be honest.

I snagged the intel model with the i7-12700H w/ 3070ti.
And recently bought the lenovo deal with 4070 and i7-13700HX.

Asus Strix G15 Link:

I recently bought an open box G15 for $1K but it hasn't been delivered yet. Wondering if the Lenovo is worth the extra $300.
IMO, as long as it can still rock a high framerate, you can choose between resolution and framerates based on preferences. Pretty well balanced... 165Hz and 2K hits that balance perfectly
i love alienware warranty support but screen at 300nit and its 18 inch
i love lenovo for solid build not sure if this is the same 500nit screen just 2 inch smaller
wonder if they both can be recharge by USB-C? not for gaming but for doing excel/web browsing

Build is solid - has a premium feel to it.
It's smoking fast - burns through everything I throw at it.
I'm pretty impressed with portability. The battery life for regular use is better than my Thinkpad X1 Extreme Gen 2, which really blew my mind. It's also not as heavy as I expected - while not exactly a feather, it doesn't feel significantly heavier than my Thinkpad.
I opted to perform a couple of upgrades, which were about as easy as can be - with the exception that getting the bottom panel off was a bit more work than usual because it's so nicely fitted (used a guitar pick as a pry). RAM install of 32GB (2x16GB) was straight forward. Installing a larger M2 HD was also easy - and I like that it has 2 slots, so now I have 2 internal drives.
At this time, my main gripes are:
- The power brick is a BRICK - you could bludgeon someone with this thing. I opted to pick up a 'slim' 230w on eBay for about $50 as my travel power supply to shave off some weight/size, but it also is not particularly small/light.
- There's no 'Hello' supported hardware. This somewhat surprised me as every PC I've bought for the last several years has had either a good enough webcam or a built in fingerprint reader. As a workaround, I bought one of the $15 dongles that's been advertised on here several times recently - works well enough for my purposes.
