Its insane to think that 16G max on a 16 thread processor is enough for any serious workloads that scale with core count (aka a lot of them) as is provided with the T14. But I still don&amp;#x27;t get why lenovo still provides _soldered_ ram at all on the T&amp;#x2F;P series machines, I&amp;#x27;ve been repeatedly gimped by that with my work provided machines (besides the inability to match timings when the socket has 2x the capacity installed&amp;#x2F;etc).&lt;p&gt;But what I really want to know is where the full bios manual is, so that I can see if its possible to enable S3 standby. My use case for a laptop generally involves putting it in my bag overnight&amp;#x2F;etc and I expect the battery to basically be where I left it over the weekend&amp;#x2F;etc. I&amp;#x27;ve yet to have a &amp;quot;modern standby&amp;quot; machine that can pull that off without hibernating the machine. Frequently even with hibernation it will wake repeatedly and drain the battery anyway. Toss in the fact that i&amp;#x27;ve not had good luck with AMD machines power savings and that makes it doubly important that S3 works.&lt;p&gt;The lack of a pre-installed linux option doesn&amp;#x27;t provide much confidence.&lt;p&gt;Acer and some of the smaller vendors seem to be the only ones providing a full suite of BIOS options on their machines (they also have two dimm slots). The problem is that their machines are plasticy and have crummy form factors.</text></comment>

I purchased one in September of last year and returned it in less than a month!&lt;p&gt;While it was quite performant, the screen shipped with it was unusably color inaccuarate. Reviews online stating that it had a color accuracy of just 37% NTSC.&lt;p&gt;In addition to having horrible color accuracy in general usage (tomatoes would look like oranges for instance) using something like &amp;quot;F.Lux&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Windows Nightlight&amp;quot; would cause this level of color-inaccuracy to appear&lt;p&gt;Windows: &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.youtube.com&amp;#x2F;watch?v=QgjqeDF9c50&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.youtube.com&amp;#x2F;watch?v=QgjqeDF9c50&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Linux: &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.youtube.com&amp;#x2F;watch?v=UhLBx4mmPrM&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.youtube.com&amp;#x2F;watch?v=UhLBx4mmPrM&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Microsoft&amp;#x27;s own demo of the technology shows what it &amp;quot;should&amp;quot; look like on a more proper display &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.youtube.com&amp;#x2F;watch?v=2QCRDn8-qLo#t=1m58s&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.youtube.com&amp;#x2F;watch?v=2QCRDn8-qLo#t=1m58s&lt;/a&gt;</text></comment>
