Vendors selling laptops with linux preinstalled often add new drivers that

a vendor download site, but some work may be needed to install them.

You may want to install Lenovo's Fedora 33 (e.g., on an external
drive or dual boot) to get Lenovo special support for updates.   This will also
help you identify missing drivers and determine which bugs were
present with F33..

If you check the devel list from some time back, there was a discussion by a Lenovo representative about these laptops. Their goal was to ship unmodified Fedora on them. So there shouldn't be any special packages involved. I think all firmware updates should be managed by fwupd as well.
