So I haven't done a true battery test, but the closest I got was web browsing while letting a game (Oldschool RuneScape) run in the background. Brightness was just under halfway, and refresh rate was 60hz. I got about 2.5hrs on that setup. I read some reviews claiming 8-9hrs on a true video only battery test.

TLDR: It should be really good for a windows machine non gaming.

I got this open box last week and it's great. Soldered RAM is a negative, but everything else about it is wonderful. Going to go back to the store today and see if I can get them to price match it down to the current open box pricing.

You can use BB chat to do price match, and FWIW, I have been successful in the past getting open-box purchases price matched.

Also, the benefits of soldered RAM is performance. It runs at a higher speed and latency is much lower due to the fact that the chips are soldered and not in a socket that can degrade or get dirty, etc.

Unfortunately they told me over chat and phone that they can't price match open box and that I would have to go in store. Either way, it's worth the hassle for $300

What kind of battery life are you seeing in non-gaming scenarios?

See this would all be great if they put a good amount, e.g. 32GB, instead of skimping out.

$843 open box near me, this is a very tempting deal but being locked into 16gb of RAM is a big negative for me.

Got one with 32GB from Lenovo directly (< 1k, around holiday, with coupons and cashback), agree this one is very slim and its OLED screen is superb.

16inch or 14inch screen? Don't see option to upgrade the memory for the 14 inch on their website. Thanks.

Soldered RAM offers no performance improvement over removable chips (assuming same RAM speeds).
