The 11e is indeed a ThinkPad. You might not think it's deserving of the name, but that's where ThinkPad is these days.

I've had a bunch of ThinkPads over the years and two are still in use.

I have a T520 that I now use basically as a terminal. It's a very creaky, heavy, machine that never gave me more than about 3 hours of battery, and the keyboard was terrible. But it sits there and keeps working (I use an external keyboard, monitor, and mouse).

I also have a ThinkPad Yoga 12.5. I really like the keyboard, but again the battery life isn't weak (4 hours). I occasionally think about getting something a little bigger, but the small size is pretty nice for traveling.

I don't think Lenovo has ever had a laptop with good battery life, outside RT Yoga 11 (12 hours?) and Yoga 2 Pro (9 hours).

You buy thinkpad for the great keyboard the red-dot-whatsitsname-thingy. And the fact that it can stop bullets. But not for the battery life.
