They forgot this part: Heats up to 100c within 1 hour of heavy graphical application usage since it has a 1050 within an 18mm thickness frame.
The most comparable laptop on the market with the 1050ti Max-Q that I can find are the Dell XPS 15 9570 i7 UHD (tapering width 11-17mm) and there are no reports of overheating in that frame.

Lenovo also chose to go with a monohinge design for two fans and rear heat dispelment, so temperatures should be in control for the most part. Time will tell.

My T440p with quad core and GeForce GT 730M takes about 45 seconds to do that, so I would be amazed if they can hold it off for 5 minutes and not indefinitely...
I wish it was 13 inch. I need 13 incher with 32-64GB of RAM, 4k screen and decent CPU.
wouldn't 4k on 13" be a bit of a overkill?
From the comment section at Ars Technica, "the wired gigabit ethernet is a custom port and dongle."

If it is anything like the X1 Carbon 6th Gen (2018). The proprietary port/dongle will block the adjacent USB port.
I bet it's 3840 x 2160, not 2840 x 2160.

What I want to know about a thing like this is how long it can go all out (on 1, 2, 3 ... N cores) before it gets throttled down to Celeron speed. My experience has not been very encouraging, so far. But if it can run one core at top speed indefinitely, that would be better than nothing.
