Test drove this laptop for a couple of weeks, it's a fantastic productivity laptop with solid casual gaming performance. Great specs for the price and a steal at this price Imo.

Build quality was good, battery life was good, screen was very good (though a bit dim for my liking @350 nits), trackpad is very generously sized. Typing was excellent for this category (good feedback and key travel, scooped keys vs flat)…very noticeable typing improvement vs it's nearly identical intel counterpart which has a mushy keyboard and flat keys with terrible feedback.

The 3050 isn't the best dGPU ofc and it's hamstrung with low Tdp due to size of this laptop…but it's the newer 6gb version and it's miles ahead of any intel integrated graphics, and the integrated Radeon graphics are also better than intel's offering. I was able to play games like LoL at ultra settings and native resolution at 120+ FPS easily….so this is great if you are a casual gamer and don't need the latest AAA titles at ultra settings. Fans are not very loud but noticeable when gaming. Didn't hear them at all during my coding/office suite/internet browsing use.

I really loved the combination of size and power this laptop offered. I returned mine because I wanted more of a desktop replacement, but for someone on the go I really think you'll be hard pressed to find better value than the slim pro 7. I'm gushing over this laptop a lot but that's just because I enjoyed using it so much, part of me still regrets returning it when I look at the 6 lb replacement sitting on my table. Maybe you'll get the one I returned 2 weeks ago lol.

BB also has it on sale new for $899. Lowest I've seen it is during their one day sale for $850, which is what I paid.
Decided to bite on this one. Had been waiting around for the Swift X deal, but figure for a $34 difference, you get:
-Better screen (higher resolution, 90 Hz)
-Better build quality
-Better speakers
-Better performance (as far as benchmarks are concerned)
-Higher wattage RTX 3050 w/ 6 GB VRAM instead of 4 (likely not a huge difference, but still)
-Other niceties like 1080p webcam/Windows Hello, USB4, PCie Gen 4 SSD

Just gotta play the open box lottery - worse case scenario, should be an easy return.

Is there a way to search within X miles ? Or search for any store that has it in stock?

The BB site sucks. But would love to get one.
I already missed out on the other lenovo deal, this one is way warmer!

I jus got it. It is not bad. Fans constantly running at relative higher speed. But one thing- the laptop surface flows electric current while charging. I can feel it. It makes static feeling when I touched. Interesting..

Same here placed an order earlier. First time I checkout bb decided to have me update my pw so at checkout screen it became unavailable. I kept refreshing and after 15 mins another one appear. Excited to give this a try. I would suggest to keep checking back for those still interested in this laptop.

Disappointing Battery Life

I purchased this laptop this week with high hopes for its battery life. However, I am extremely disappointed that it only lasts 3-4 hours on a full charge. This limited performance severely affects my productivity and mobility, forcing me to constantly search for power outlets. The manufacturer's claims of exceptional battery life do not align with the reality of my experience.

Can you provide some more details like what were you doing for it to last 3-4 hours. Browsing, watching videos, gaming?

I just opened the Edge browser and watched YouTube, and I'm feeling disappointed. I had seen many positive reviews about this laptop, but the battery life on mine is extremely poor.

Better CPU and more included RAM and SSD space than the other open-box Lenovo that went on sale at BB a couple times earlier this/last month, but worse GPU and non-upgradable. Also like double the price. If you were dooming on the other one for whatever reason, this liekly isnt going to be enough of an upgrade to justify taking this one instead, but if you're in the market for an entry-level laptop, the 6gb 3050 is a decent enough upgrade from the really budget entry-level 4gb laptops that were going for about $500 last Black Friday.

So I just received this laptop today and was worried about the battery so I did a test to check. Same scenario I played a video from YouTube nonstop for 3 hours at 100% brightness and in full screen. Currently it still has 60% battery left.
