I have a 4 yo Lenovo 14" T480 with 64 GiB of Samsung RAM, a magnesium top, 4 TiB SSD, quad core 8650i with discrete graphics, internal WiFi 6E, WWAN, and real 10 hour battery life with hot-swappable 72 Wh secondary batteries and an external battery charger. Newer models like the T490 and T14 G1/2 are much less usable, serviceable, and upgradeable. I have a whole stockpile of repair parts so I'm keeping this for years and shunning developer waste.
