ThinkPad P14s Gen 5

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

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

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.

In this particular model, the OLED display eats battery like there's no tomorrow. You will get like up to 3 hours of battery life, compared to around 6 for the IPS panel. That runtime is with low/moderate use. On reviews you can see up to 12 hours or so (IPS display), but on idle. Also, getting the

Max the RAM, 32GB minimum, get the best processor you can find, get plenty of fast storage as well. Make sure your eGPU does not have compatibility issues (some AMD ones on the Ryzen 7 does and kills excel randomly). Excel itself can benefit from the following: Remove OneDrive, Sharepoint and CoPilo
