Need help choosing between two laptops

So I've been looking for a gaming laptop for the past 2 months, and my budget is $1200. I am ideally looking for something with a 3060. I've had my eye on the Legion 5 pro from Lenovo for a while, but it still hasn't released. Today, checking the Lenovo website, I saw a Legion 5 17 inch from last year with a 2060 for 1149 USD. The thing is, I don't live in the US, and a relative that is staying there is going to bring it to me. They stay until the end of may, so I really don't know what to do. Do I wait for the Legion 5 Pro to release, or do I pull the trigger on the 17 inch one??!!
