The lead photo seems to be a different model, although the rest of the specs seem to match. I wonder what certified refurbished means from a quality point of view. Interesting deal for sure!

I just bit and ordered it, it arrives in a few days, I'll let you know lol.
Does refurbished have the same warranty as new ones?
Refurb directly from Lenovo is basically brand new. You can't tell unless you dream about some moron that used to wack off on the laptop a few months ago. Other than that, it's a brand new laptop imo.
If this was really touchscreen but they don't make it like that . Nonetheless a great deal at this time for those who are budget conscious over a new one with its higher price tag. Use a CC with extended warranty and accidental/stolen protection and you're good.
I would of sold my Predator 16S AI I picked up for this if it was with touchscreen. I like the Predator for the price but boy the battery is not friendly as everyone stated for non gaming.
And what exactly are you going to do with this? Seems like a lot of money for something to be semi portable. But it's got to weigh a ton
It's still easier to carry than a whole desktop setup, even easier than an sff lol.
Of course, you're not gonna be using this on cafes and such, but it's a pretty decent desktop replacement and I'd argue that you can't really build anything with a similar performance(that of a 5070ti desktop), along with a really nice OLED display for the same money, let alone an sff.
Edit: In fact, I just built a quick pc part picker and picked a 27" QD-Oled monitor and I am looking at 2500 for regular parts, nothing fancy and now keyboard/mouse included.

I move around a lot between my home, hotels, and my parents house, I don't really go to coffees and such, but when I'm somewhere I wanna have the best performance.
Since I was a wee lad I've always had to buy the middle of the road version, the best value, min/max it to heck. But now I've got a little more money and I wanna buy the best portable machine (within reason, I'm still in slickdeals lol) I can.

Lenovo doesn't have gift cards.
Any ideas on how to get more off with 20% PayPal?
