I have a T14s (AMD) which works very nicely, battery lasts for long 7-8 hours and things generally work.
Before that, I had a P14s Gen1 for work. No matter what, that system runs a bit hot and battery times are awful.
I haven't dedicated days to searching for fixes, but that's my point, it used to _just work_, and in this case, it works poorly.
It used to be the case that outside of certain specific setups (like a dual-GPU machine), Lenovo Thinkpads would just work, Ubuntu certified or not. But that P14s G1 really soured my experience.
I would advise you to check the return policy, maybe double-check if anyone has blogged about their device.
FWIW I have had many thinkpads over the years, they _mostly_ work well. But there have been more misses as of late.
I will add that I also own a Z13 Gen 1 and that it works well. Albeit the battery drains much faster because of the high-res oled screen. And I do think the palm-rest is a bit uncomfortable, the edges are too sharp, but that's not a Linux issue :D
