Which OSes? Newer windows relies on newer CPU sleep states in that it doesn't actually suspend to disk/hibernate but just sleeps, trickling the battery.
Both are windows 11. It wouldn't surprise me if the older laptop doesn't support the new sleep state. I would personally trade slower wakeup for less battery use while sleeping. I don't use the laptop every day and it's kind of a bummer when I turn it on and find out it lost 20% of its charge between uses.
Even when it's "shutdown" the Lenovo 7x slim doesn't appear to actually be off.
