I'm tempted to get this but the Amazon reviews are all over the place,
reviews such as :

"6 months later, this wont turn on - This was a Christmas gift, so about 6 months of light indoor use with no accidents, the computer won't stay on and many times acts as though it will start but then just turns off. On-line forums show that this is a recurring problem with Lenovo. I should have heeded the warnings"

"MY version has 32GB of memory and 1 TB SSD and overall is a very good machine for most.... but not for photographers and Zoomers. The ARC 370 GPU has created nothing but problems with Adobe products. The new Ai features either don't work or are very slow. Also the built in web camera is horrible. It works but the quality is poor. I happen to have a Logitech webcam which is use to get around this issue. No way to get around the GPU issues except avoiding Adobe photoshop and lightroom."

" A $1500 mistake I wont make again, I purchased a Lenovo - Slim 7i - Laptop Computer - Intel Core i7-12700H - 16" WQXGA Touchscreen Display - 16GB - 1TB SSD - Intel Arc A370M Graphics - Windows 11 in November 2022. I'm writing this six months later. The battery performed as written for several months, then suddenly, I can't get more than about 3 hours worth of battery life. Also, it crashes - a lot. Multiple times a day. Even just using MS Word, it suddenly highlights any text, switches to all caps, and has to be restarted to perform properly for a couple of hours. It will freeze online as well; basically, anything you do for a couple of hours, make sure you're saving as you go. This is without a doubt the worst computer I've bought in decades."

"Dont buy this laptop- it overheats. Lenovo warranty is useless - At first glance, this is a great laptop. Its layout, feel and speed are impressive. HOWEVER, it has a history of overheating. Some of the processors run over 90C. It is likely to fail catastrophically, during use.

The laptop comes with Lenovo Premier service. They are easy to contact and polite. HOWEVER, the only option they offer for a machine under warranty is to order parts and send someone to repair the laptop at your house. You cant return it and they wont give you a replacement. This process can take weeks, maybe months, I dont know.

In the meantime the customer is stuck with a machine that may fail.

So, the machine has a known defect. The manufacturer warranty terms are not acceptable to most users. I would never buy another Lenovo"

"Don't Buy - 65 days into the power button broke. Can't turn the thing on. What a waste of money."

I'm not cherry picking either. Those are all the newest reviews on Amazon, right now. On paper, this laptop looks good, the specs seem good, and the price seems good, but after reading all these reviews, I'm totally on the fence. I dunno, if not sure I'm willing to roll the dice and risk it, especially on a refurb.

You seem like you still use Internet Explorer. For us the normal people Chrome requires at least 32GB.
Perhaps limit yourself to 20 tabs at a time (only 12 running video) and Chrome works well with 4gb RAM.

I every single screenshot I have seen of someone complaining about RAM usage in Chrome looks like this or worse.

This is not a joke or exaggeration. I normally have 6-8 tabs open at all times with zero issue, but when you can't read the tab names any longer you have a problem.

Second to this. Note most Chromebooks only have 8GiB ram and they run smoothly even with hundreds of tabs. Admittedly this mostly is due to the ChromeOS using zram, but it's proof that having less than 32GiB is totally fine to run Chrome.

What would this laptop's purpose be? 12th Gen processor w/32GB memory seems waaaay overkill for anything but gaming/video processing.
Music production if you don't like Apple.

I'm not so sure if it's really the zram or that the chromebook seems to put everything to sleep.

About 10 days ago this seller was mentioned in this thread for $662. Now it's down to $643.

Do I keep waiting for it to go under $600?

I guess these are mainly Costco returns?

Very tempting. Refurbs are a coin flip though.

The problem here is not the power, but the ventilation. 45W tdp on the H series processors. Plus the ARC dgpu. Plus the hotter ddr5 memory. Plus the gen4 nvme.

This thing will run extremely hot. Fans will be spinning at 100 even while idle.

The Arc A370M is not much worse than the 3050.

But anyway, I can't replicate this deal's price so that would be an issue …

In benchmarks it's consistently below the 3050 in anything but a few games and standard benchmark apps. Also with nvidia you get DLSS.

I've been eyeing this for well over a week and finally pulled the trigger. Capital One has 4% cash back on eBay purchases right now.
