The $800 refurbished ThinkPad T16 Gen 3 gets about twice that and has a better touchpad and less glare and IR camera for convenient login.

So many Pros are already listed everywhere. Not going too much into those.
Only things to look for are the thermals imo. In the very short time of usage, I've noticed the temperatures steady around 45 deg with minimal usage. And it is getting warmer as I do updates and stuff. Might have to check the thermal paste and reapply.
I also encountered a BSOD right after some windows/driver updates - DPC Watchdog Violation. I've done some driver updates, BIOS to v307 and since then haven't had issues yet. I cannot pinpoint which update caused this though. ( Also updated via the AMD Adrenaline Edition ) and MyASUS which i will later replace with Ghelper.
Other than these 2 issues, this looks a solid buy at 999. The screen is gorgeous, Keyboard is amazing, trackpad is OK, The SSD inside is a Micron one which I feel is a bit slow and will upgrade next week to a 2TB Samsung 980 Pro.
Initial Impression - Recommended Buy.
