I am using Lenovo Thinkpad L15 with AMD Ryzen 7 Pro. It is fast and is almost never getting hot. I never heard of any aloud fan sound from it. Installation of Arch Linux had no problem. But I am getting two errors: An error about "SECURE_DISPLAY" and another one about Bluetooth. Former one causes no problem as I see but you might have Bluetooth devices disconnected needlessly time to time. Other than that, I am very happy with this laptop. Battery life is also very good. Under normal load, it would go 6-8 hours. Under heavy load, it would probably be 4-6 hours. I am also very fan of Trackpad. I am using Sway and not a GUI app other than Firefox so I am trying to use keyboard everytime but when I needed a touch pad, it is there and very ergonomic.
