“When you open the lid of this PC, it immediately starts up. So, what is the power button on the side for?”

• This "Flip to Turn On" feature is actually an option in a BIOS/UEFI menu. The default setting was "on". I turned it off and now it acts like a conventional laptop, where you use the power button to turn it on.

• Hey, PeteM3. Great question -- users can turn off this feature and choose to use the power button manually exclusively. To disable the Flip To Open feature, open the Lenovo Vantage app > select "device settings" or the gear icon on the left tab, select the "Power" tab > look for the Flip To Open setting toggle and switch it to the off position. Also, some Windows 11 devices enable users to change what pressing the power button does in Settings (here's a link to learn more about this feature: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/shut-down-sleep-or-hibernate-your-pc-2941d165-7d0a-a5e8-c5ad-8c972e8e6eff).
