Hi. I'm interested in this laptop, but surprisingly in Lenovo's website 512 GB SSD seems to be the only option. No 1 TB possible, unlike most other Lenovo laptops. This is really weird since this is supposed to be a mobile workstation with Rembrandt "H" CPUs.

You can check it here: lenovo dot com /fr/fr/laptops/yoga/yoga-slim-series/Yoga-Slim-7-Pro-Gen-7-16%E2%80%B3-AMD/p/82UWCTO1WWFRFR0/customize?

Is this a bug? Can this laptop be ordered with a 1 TB SSD?Thank you.

This is strategy: always offer products with flaws so that they do not become too good. Rather save a few pennies (or add crapware and craplabels) to earn more per sold item. It is beyond the manufacturers' imagination that, in all respects, good products would generate more income.

I understand that :) However, it seems that this same laptop is being sold with 1 TB SSD in the US : lenovo dot com /us/en/p/laptops/ideapad/ideapad-500/ideapad-5-pro-gen-7-(16-inch-amd)/len101i0049

My best guess right now is that this model isn't really available yet, because of shortage issues.

The official model datasheet clearly states that this model has up to 1 TB storage.
It also states that dGPU can be up to a 3050 Ti, and that RAM is 6400 MHz.
And yet currently on the website the 3050 Ti isn't available, and the RAM is only 4800 MHz.

Here's a datasheet excerpt:
