I recently bought Lenovo Ideapad 720s (4K) and Dual Booted Ubuntu 18.04. However the screen is Flickering. I faced this even while installing but thought it would not happen once Ubuntu was set-up. I have tried the approach mentioned in https://askubuntu.com/questions/1058126/asus-zenbook-ux391ua-screen-flickers/1058132#1058132 but still no success. I am attaching a video for the same :

Specs:
8GB of RAM
Core i7-8550U
Intel UHD Graphics 620 (Kabylake GT2)
GNOME 3.28.2



The only workaround that I have found is to unplug power and then plug back in.(Works 98%). This issue resurfaces as soon as I even lock sceen (and the screen turns off).
