Edit: besides the obvious 🙄

The Intel 13900HX is at least 30% more powerful than the AMD.

Not the best price for this AMD version, when you can get the Intel version with stronger CPU, double amount of ram (32 vs 16gb) and faster (5600mhz vs 5200mhz), double the storage (1tb vs 512gb) and thunderbolt for $2499.

This Dell with AMD cpu is a bit better priced if you are adamant on getting a AMD cpu..
I think you are confusing the 7940HS vs this 7945 HX, this 7945HX is slightly more powerful (~5% average) than the 13900HX, a bit less than 13980HX according to independent reviews.

The Intel Pro 7i's with a 4080/4090 have Thunderbolt4. The AMD does not. if that's a deal breaker.

This and the 13900hx variant are actually priced similarly after all the coupons. I have tried adding both in carts. Though the initial price for the 13900hx + 4090 is 2,999, its price actually comes down to 2,607.50 (32gb + 2tb) before tax with id.me and all eligible coupons and this one (32gb + 512gb) is 2482.67. I have heard mixed reviews on the internet for both cpu chipsets. Performance wise, they are pretty much the same, with 7945hx ahead for a little bit on multicores performances. As for their battery life, Jarrod's Tech did a test on the Asus scar 17 (IPS WQHD 240hz monitor), it has the bottom of list battery life for casual web browsing, lasting only 158 minutes for watching youtubes, while the 13900hx 7i has 342 minutes of battery life (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T...od%27sTech).
I know this is a gaming laptop and it's bounded to have low battery life but I would love it to be at least semi-portable. 158 minutes is just too little. On the other hand, GizmoSlipTech compared pro 7 and 7i on a spec sheet, pro 7 (7945hx) is rated by lenovo to have 12 hours battery life while 7i (13900hx) is
rated to be 8 hrs. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K...moSlipTech)
So my question in the end is does 7945hx battery life suck this much? It is based on the Jarrod's Tech review on the scar 17, And if so, why does lenovo rate its AMD variant (7945hx) battery life at 12 hrs, even 4 hrs above its intel varrant (13900hx)? Obviously if I can get double the battery life from 158 to 342, I wouldn't mind paying the extra 100 to get 13900hx.

I was looking into this a lot when purchasing and found Lenovo's website to be way more than bhphoto. So this same laptop with 32Gb Ram/1TB drive and intel i9 is $2499. A week ago I bought the RTX4080 from bhphoto for 1999(too early for the 1899 price) and had no problems.

Your information is 100% wrong AMD chip is way faster (except in single thread)

but 7945hx has worst battery life than 13900hx, and the 13900hx model (32gb + 2tb ssd) is only 2607.50 before tax while this customized model is 2482.67 (32gb + 512gb ssd), not much cheaper and the ssd volume is much lower (1.5tb), so idk why this is not getting recommended instead.

No it doesn't you can apply only two coupons, holiday surprise and gamingcto. If you try applying extra5 it cancels out gamingcto, post a screenshot otherwise what are you even doing with your life
