Just chiming in with another recommendation for the T470, which I currently own. It has a pretty decent battery life.

I wrote about my experiences with installing Linux on it here: https://medium.com/@debugjois/installing-ubuntu-gnome-17-04-... (it’s a bit outdated. I run Arch on it now)

You have a few issues listed in that blog post. Do any of them sill plague your system, or has Arch sorted them all out?

Most of the issues were sorted out by kernel updates, and a BIOS update I performed recently.

The only thing that Arch clearly improved was the Bluetooth experience, which was very unstable on Ubuntu (even after the upgrage to 17.10). But even that is probably down to the newer kernel in Arch.
