Switching to the P14s Gen 5 from T480
I hear you. I’ve a similar experience: recently I switched to a p14s gen5 amd and my previous laptop was a t470s. I miss a lot the old keyboard, the magnesium body, the build quality and the lightness. Performance wise it’s a huge jump (I really don’t feel the need of having a desktop pc anymore) bu

How I doubled the P14s Gen 5 AMD horrendous battery life...
He used Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Word, Notepad, and deleted System32. It was finally achieved through deleting System32. I did it and it worked really well. He did it and it worked really well to improve battery life of the P14s Gen5. Other users also reported doing the same with great results. De

Provocative question for Thinkpad users - why choose a Thinkpad over a Mac at a higher level of specifications
First thing I'd point out is a very flawed premise. At the higher levels of specs, mac doesn't even HAVE laptops to compete with the specs of ThinkPads. Find me a Mac laptop that has 4TB internal storage like my P14s Gen4 AMD AND my P14s Gen5 AMD. Find me a Mac laptop that has 64GB RAM. I'll wait...

Thinkpad T14s Gen 6/ Ultra 7 258V - touch vs non-touch?
If the information on the PSREF is accurate, that touch model uses the 45% NTSC display that has AWFUL dull colors. You can probably tweak them a bit and make it useable but that display is not great. I have the same display on my P14s Gen 5 AMD and, like I said, I tweaked the color temperature, cra

Issue when trying to turn on thinkpad
Not saying that its the same thing (it probably isn't), but that's exactly what my P14S G5A was doing before/while it fried itself last week: https://imgur.com/a/fried-p14s-gen5-amd-nKWIIdb The manual says its just memory training

My first thinkpad in my life
To add to this E series are at the bottom of the barrel for this kind of stuff. I had an E14 gen 6 with a Core Ultra 7 155H, 4tb + 4tb nvme storage and 64gb of DDR5 5600, just to give you an idea of how kitted out it was. I was forced to sell it for pennies in a hurry because my workflow required Li

Best thinkpad for college?
These are the outgoing P14s Gen 5 models and they're being discounted because the new Gen 6 is coming out next month. The RAM on these is swappable so you can start with 32GB ($1300+tax) and then upgrade to 64GB down the road if you need to do heavy simulation. But I think you'll be fine on 32GB for

Outlet Experience
My current P14s Gen 5 AMD is from the outlet. Was listed as certified refurbished. If it wasn't for the genetic box and the refurbished sticker at the bottom, I would say the laptop was totally new. Not a single sign of use. Even the new laptop smell. Only 1 battery cycle. A friend also bought a Len
