ThinkPad T14

Backwards-compatibility is a super important part of upgradability. This is what, for me, gives the Framework Laptop 13 the edge over the recent reparable ThinkPads. If I buy a ThinkPad T14 Gen 5 and then a few years from now either my mainboard dies or I want to upgrade to a newer generation CPU, I

That's the best part; you don't know how widespread this may actually/truly be. Not a lot of users immediately go to Reddit and say "LOOK AT MY GREEN LINE" I worked at Lenovo during the release of the X1 Carbon 9th generation; the internet still has notes on "what was happening" but it's a few spora

Not sure how it cools the 165H. T14s positioning is horrible in recent gens, especially Intel, a

Lenovo prices went up about 25% since January but we still need to replace ~25% of our laptops this year. (4 year warranty so laptops last 4 years before they're sold). That 25% made our T14s build more expensive than our "premium" Apple MacBook Air M5 build. We ended up going for the Ultra5 chip in

I don't know who's ultimately to blame in your case - the Ryzen T14s being a work machine I immediately get flashbacks from efficiency-(and performance!-)destroying security software and intrusive GPOs ruining energy settings (combined with outdated BIOSes, oh the irony...) - but Lenovo's AMD Thinkp

Materials wise I mean it's a stepdown because the T480s and T14 G5 are different tiers. It's like comparing the T480s to the T480 - T--s is always much more premium. It's just a heavier X1C honestly. Thermals wise, I mean the T480s would have been able to sustain around (EDIT: I checked, was around

Before spending money on a newer laptop, ditch the Windows11 and reset your T480 to the state it was in when it was new. Then update the Win10 to the latest 22H2 release, check that Microsoft Update doesn't replace any Lenovo-supplied drivers with generic ones and enroll in ESUs to keep receiving se

Macs have been a good/great value at the base model and/or with minimal upgrades ever since Apple Silicon was introduced. That is especially true once all models (until the Neo) got 16GB RAM standard, and even more true now that all other manufacturers have seen dramatic price increases. The value p

M5 MacBook Airs are cheaper than a Lenovo T14s G6 Lunar Lake now. I’ve been having a frank conversation with Lenovo lately.

Man this makes me so jealous, we have almost strictly lenovo T14s and 90% is even the same damn generation and then 10 or so P1's for our powerusers. Felt like scooping my own poop while i had the runs
