Why isn't there much love for the Thinkpad T16? Too big?

I used to swear by larger laptops until I sized way down from a W540 to an X13 Gen 3. I don't miss the number pad, certainly not more than I enjoy my laptop weighing barely over 2 pounds. And, crucially, the functionality between Lenovo's 12/13" and 14-16" laptops is largely the same, with the excep

14" 2.8K OLED VS 14" 2.8K IPS

For some this is not really a choice, for some OLEDs are just painful to use after a short while: https://old.reddit.com/r/thinkpad/comments/1l80oc0/p16s_gen_3_with_oled_panel_eye_strain_headache/ Lenovo offering mainly 1920x1200 IPS or higher-dpi with flickering OLEDs is a "we don't care" attitude.

T1G & P1 Gen 8 - What is the best Display option ? (Bad Screens,..)

This panel should be good. It is a non touch panel so no problem of visible extra layer (for instance Lenovo OLED 4k touch panels have an add-on touch layer visible on bright images/videos). The down sides are : only 60hz contrast not so good (normal as it is an IPS) HDR contents will be not really

Took on a Mac only client, so I got a Macbook Air to practice on... now it's my daily driver and I absolutely love it. Convince me I'm missing something, please?

Gotta love it, people using a shitty HP and comparing it to a Mac and then say how they could never go back. Maybe buy a decent Windows laptop in the first place, not one of those cheap ones with a 46 kWH battery, a shitty 300 nits 45% ntsc screen, etc. If you want a macbook pro, yoy can save tons b

T14 vs Legion (or other Lenovo suggestions)

Based on the pricing, I'm guessing you're in Canada? The Lenovo Perkopolis portal (https://www.lenovo.com/ca/vipmembers/perkopolisgold/en/pc/ with password PerksGoldCA26!) currently has a great deal on the ThinkPad P14s and P16s and they're very customizable, starting at roughly $1200. Play around w

Best computer science laptop?

This one would check every box: https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpadp/thinkpad-p14s-gen-6-14-inch-amd-mobile-workstation/21ql0020us - plenty of CPU, RAM and storage, decent enough iGPU for something that's not for gaming, excellent screen, 3 pounds, uses a 65w USBC charger.

Not sure which option is better: thinkpad t14 gen 5 amd vs thinkpad p16s gen 4

Let me help decode a lot of this for you. 😁 The P series is the power series, more powerful than the average laptop. Usually larger and heavier as well. T series is the baseline model, not as powerful as the P series, not as portable as the X1 series, better but more expensive than the E series. It’

About HP Elitebook X G1a / Tiny review

apparently Lenovo has finally a 16" laptop with Ryzen. Still, it goes up to HX 370, which is very decent. Unfortunately, it still follows the paradigm where specs are not top.... for example the screen is IPS, but FHD.https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpadp/thinkpad-p16s-gen-4-16-i

Can I upgrade the screen on my P16s Gen 4 AMD

On the P14s, a 1200p display is acceptable, but on a 16-inch laptop, 1200p is simply not enough. At the very least, Lenovo should have offered the P16s with a 1600p display, similar to the one available on the P1 and P16 (IPS, 500 nits, 165 Hz). In the end, I went with the ThinkBook 16p Gen 6 (Intel

Reccomend a laptop? (Art)

You didn't mention a price range? The two below are going to be more than capable with wide color gamut you need as an art creator, gaming not so much . Note both are kind costly. https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpadp/thinkpad-p16s-gen-4-16-inch-amd-mobile-workstation/21qr001eus
