> Lenovo Windows work laptop I was given which would keep blue-screening after going into hibernate for more than 5 minutes.

It amazes me that every model Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga I've worked with (four generations now) has some issue along this line. Every refresh requires some driver troubleshooting on my part to find the one that fixes machines that sleep and don't wake up.

Outside of their business line, Lenovo completely phones it in. I never recommend Lenovo for consumers. Heck, even their think-series laptops and desktops often have critical bios and driver updates shortly after release that need to be installed or the machine will bluescreen, lock up, drop wifi, etc.

At work, I only buy Thinkpads and Think-series PCs after they've aged 6+ months. I can't imagine how people get by being early adopters. We early adopted a Carbon laptop once. Borderline unusable wifi and trackpad. It took 6-12 months for Lenovo to release the updates that fixed these issues, and even then the trackpad never felt right to me (misses taps, misses drags, fails to detect two fingers, etc.)

Their business line is what I was referring to. I've never worked with their consumer line.

Every generation has some variety of stupid power management issue. Their 2014 & 2015 model ThinkPad Yoga both had a problem where there was some fault with the system board that frequently caused the trackpad to stop working after sleep/wake. Fix was to replace the system board. The 2014-2017 models have all had sleep/wake bugs that involved a driver and/or BIOS updates to resolve later (often not completely). It doesn't help either that they regularly leave critical drivers out of their SCCM packages.
