True of older ThinkPads but Lenovo seems to have finally broken them. My current T14s Gen 3 AMD has modern standby problems. Fails to resume from sleep about once a week. Trying to get Lenovo to do something about it.

Sadly yes. My newest device is a T480s that I use as daily driver (without issues) but I likely will never get that shiny ThinkPad carbon :/

Windows. I haven't tried installing Linux yet because I wanted to make sure it works with the factory OS first. Other people have issues with GPU drivers in Linux. There's also the issue of the removal of the S3 sleep option in the uefi.

Yeah there are at least two known issues with it under Linux:

Display flickering if you have the low power LCD: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Fedora/Random-screen-flickering...

Microphone is very quiet: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Other-Linux-Discussions/T14s-Ge...
