Another Pentagon supplier that received attention was China's Lenovo Group Ltd. In 2008, U.S. investigators found that military units in Iraq were using Lenovo laptops in which the hardware had been altered. The discovery surfaced later in little-noticed testimony during a U.S. criminal case—a rare public description of a Chinese hardware hack.
"A large amount of Lenovo laptops were sold to the U.S. military that had a chip encrypted on the motherboard that would record all the data that was being inputted into that laptop and send it back to China," Lee Chieffalo, who managed a Marine network operations center near Fallujah, Iraq, testified during that 2010 case. "That was a huge security breach. We don't have any idea how much data they got, but we had to take all those systems off the network."
Three former U.S. officials confirmed Chieffalo's description of an added chip on Lenovo motherboards. The episode was a warning to the U.S. government about altered hardware, they said.

FWIW I have had 4 Lenovo Yoga's in the last few years, (1) 5i and (3) 7i's, all have been great and to date none of the "hInGeS" have exploded
Like RippyNY alluded to my current i7's (with a 8845HS) battery doesn't last anywhere near as long as the i7-1355u I replaced. I think the downgrade from the OLED screen might be some of that, who knows.

Personally I do not care if the laptop is a 2-in-1 but the touch screen and backlit keyboard are a must so the Yoga line has served me well.
FWIW, my work Dell 5440 has a far worse screen than my current 14AHP9. My last Yoga was a OLED which did have a better screen than both but not enough to write home about. Of course price being (roughly) equal I would go with a OLED though.

I also don't get how sometimes processors that shouldn't outperform others (based on model #) still manage to. I have seen review benchmarks of i5 outperform apples to apples benchmarks of the i7's....in the same generation. Makes no sense unless you are talking about overclocking and 'silicon lottery' type stuff.
