I purchased the 5060 version with 14700hx earlier this month for $1200. Wondering if I should return it and spend 300 more for newer cpu and 5070. All other specs look the same

None of these are a perfect match for machines but should give you an idea https://www.notebookcheck.net/ind...s[]=354341
GPU - 1st: 5060, 2nd: 5070
CPU - 3rd: 14900HX, 4th: 255HX
So only compare the gaming in 1 vs 2 and CPU in 3 v 4, keeping in mind at 1080p the CPU not matching on gaming will alter things a bit, but at least gives you a general idea
Personally I wouldn't bother, the 5070 seems to be about 9-16% in most games, except some of the more demanding ones like Assassin's Creed Shadows where it is more like 25-35%, can judge for yourself i that's important enough.
Haven't compared other benchmarks but it seems like the 14700hx is a bit faster than 255hx on the CPU side in fact, at least in multi core, a bit slower in single core.
My main issue is the battery life on the 14700hx version is not too great. Just web browsing and some videos get me about 3 hours which i feel is pretty low. I know the newer cpus are much more efficient but by how much is what I don't know. Looking at some reviews but have not found anyone that has done actual real world testing. Just states manufacture specs.
For reference the 5070ti version has been getting down to this price (in Canada). So this is not a good price as generally Lenovo matches prices in both markets (after conversion). But maybe the tariffs are increasing US prices...

you dont get a dGPU for battery life lol
Intel 12th-14th Gen should get 4 hr - 5 hr on battery saver

Waiting for the 5070ti to hit this range or 5080 for $1800! Extra vram is super important for gaming.
HP Omen Max with 5070 Ti was under $1400 and with 5080 was about $1850. That was last month and those sold out within days. It might be a long time before Lenovo prices drop that low. Supply chains are moving around because of tariffs.
I just picked up a Lenovo p14s for $1000. V lightweight and great for running VMs etc. This seems like a far more superior machine, however. Is it that much better?

Yeah I waffled on the HP for awhile, I've had a ton of luck with Lenovo Legion series in the past currently on a platform with a 3070.
I'm in the tech world but even going back to 3080/4080 line that price rarely got that low as the hp deal. I'm willing to pay a 10/15% premium to use all my spare power adapters etc and just the good experience with Lenovo tbh.

If the screen were 1080p, I'd still be in doubt...Lot to consider here...
Trying to see to buy this or the Asus g16 5070ti for 2600.
