What is the battery life like? What are the thermals like?

  I couldn't honestly say because I haven't properly tested the battery life when I'm not stressing the device. But I can tell you that Windows 10 has a new "battery saver" mode akin to iOS 9's, and that I'm not worried about Apple telling my battery which holds less than 50% of its capacity a couple of years later despite half their guaranteed charge cycles will tell me "too bad" because - their guarantee aside - I didn't experience this behavior in the first year of owning the device. Even HP's 3 year "no questions asked" battery warranty aside, I can just buy a battery off of NewEgg and stick it in myself when this one kicks the bucket. It runs much cooler than my MBP ever did (no more burning my fingertips typing) - but note the caveat about fan noise in my initial post.

    Sounds good! This might be my next machine. My T440 is now beginning to show its age after years of faithful service.
