Pretty much what you heard is all I have seen rumored. Possible nVidia 1160 for the Y530 and one other model as far as Lenovo goes. Doesn't sound like a splash.
Got a tip for us?

The thermal info of the new GPU has not been released yet. I will keep my X1E box unopened until next week.
More laptops with 3:2 or similar productivity oriented screen ratios, improved touchpads.

Does not sound very good in the area of laptops. Hope the new Nvidia GPU has better thermal.
It seems that this year, it is more about monitor displays.

I'd say the odds are extremely high that fan noise is not something that will go away, especially when you have to consider the use of coffee Lake chipsets and even if the Nvidia rolls out new GPUs that consumer less power, they still generate heat.
I think you're focusing on the wrong class of machines, if you want a whisper quiet laptop, you need to look at fanless models (that use integrated gpus and intel's ultra low powered cpus).
Performance comes at a price, and that is heat, there's no way around the laws of physics.
Yes, so I have dropped my requirements of Nvidia GPU (iGPU is OK) and six-core CPU (4-core is OK). My main interest now is a laptop with 15" screen at 4K or near 4K resolutions, below 1.8kg, quiet and have 6-8 hours of battery life.
Razer just announced a new version of the laptop you tried few months ago. Other main companies have already announced new laptops. Lenovo still has not made any announcement. If MS releases the SB3, I would be interested but it looks like it won't happen until this Fall.
There is several sizes, including a 15", and now even a 17", all with incredibly thin bezels, and nice industrial design.

I’ve already seen the one u wanted to, the new Razer with the RTX graphics! I watched the Nvidia conference and what RTX offers is simply incredible and way ahead of AMD.
The thing is with these, the top end nuts huge madly overpowered beast gaming computers that were also shown are cheaper then the maxes out MacBook Pro, which would cry and the lack of power compared to these new machines.
Apple really really really really really really really really really has prices itself out of the market IMO, compared to the power on tap with PCs, you’ve got to really love that Mac OS experience to buy into it.

I am building a workstation with RTX 2080 so I don't care about the GPU of the laptop.

Owning Apple products is a symbol of status among super rich university students and grandmom from the big country in the far east. As long as they buy, TC does not care about the rest of the world.
Apple's ultrabooks are reasonably competitive. And the iMacs aren't terrible value for money either. But certainly, their high end machines are 100% not worth the money.
Lg just announced their new lg gram, 17” and still under 3 pounds. 2560x1600 display
I’m a little disappointed, Lenovo looks like will upgrade only the Legion, Razer has the rtx only in the single SSD config. How are they supposed to run a frickin 2080 max-q in that slimmmed down Razor? I may buy it just to find out. But will wait until end of January anyway, 40 laptops with RTX?
In other news, in case you missed it, Nvidia threw a white flag and will publish drivers allowing its cards to work with freesync monitors ( I mean able to adjust the frequency, just like GSync). Which eliminates 90% of reasons to buy AMD GPU.

I personally have no idea what will come in October. I tried to ask the oracle, but it wasn't much help
I haven't been keeping up with CES at all but before I go do my research - the big win for me would be an X1 Carbon or other thin and lights with an MX150. Just a little extra oomph in light of the fact that Intel seems to be limiting Iris to only a few lines of mobile CPU.
Like does anything new other than Coffee Lake U have one?
Edit: And speaking of the X1, 1440p HDR is great but glass overlay with touch would be great too. I was in Costco today and that 1080p panel and the price are still bummers.
