Wow, wanting this as I am using last year's 7 ProX version but hard to justify the premium over what I already have

Apart from the performance, mainly in GPU department, the main highlight is the Mini LED 1200-nits display (in HDR mode but can still reach over 600 nits in SDR). Also, this has RTX 4050 6GB vs RTX 3050/3050 Ti 4TB and with a 80W TGP vs just 50W in last year's model. So, you will see a preety strong boost in GPU department. an RTX 4050 80W is almost as strong as a 120-130W RTX 3060.

Great specs, laptop physically doesn't look special. Looks like any other Lenovo yoga which is pretty bland IMO

After watching some videos on miniled laptops blooming /blotchiness, so glad I got an oled laptop. I can live without a wallpaper and 1200 nits brightness. Seeing blotchiness on greys when on a web browser or productivity program would drive me insane.

Well, these are Slim & Light Productivity machines, not gaming laptops and always cost more than gaming laptops with similar hardware. And RTX 4050 is not a weak card. As per a lot of reviews, espcially the one by Jarrod's Tech, RTX 4050 normally does not go over 90-95W and it performs almost similarly like a full powered 140W RTX 3060.

This is antonline, so unless you're prepared to fork over $300 (20% restocking fee) for your return, better to pretend that policy doesn't exist.

Is 6GB for the GPU incorrect?

I used for this for about a week before sending it back due to battery life only being 4 hours. AMA

Note, if you open the listing and check the specifications, it says:
This laptop is rtx4050 6GB GDDR6

Comparisons of this laptop and its graphic card are available via a YouTube search. It appears to be an excellent portable creator/gaming laptop, in its price/size range.

The other guy posted inaccurate Information.

Recent posts showed last years 7 pro x model go on sale on eBay and Costco, the prices on these don't seem to hold very well based on the sales (new and refurbished). This specific model appears to be a great laptop for a fair price if you must have one today.
