ThinkPad X1 Extreme

I have two WoA laptops - SP11 (X1P) and Lenovo T14s (X1E). I also have a Ryzen 7 T14s from work. The difference could not be more night and day. I hate to do anything on my AMD work laptop, it is so frustrating - bleeding battery when it's supposed to be in sleep, constant fan noise even while doing

ThinkPad P16 Gen 3 with Core Ultra 9 285HX and RTX 5000 Pro P series, but not the -s models, those are rebadged T14/T16 besides few exceptions Depends on the market, your budget and performance needs. Generally, P series will be the answer. FYI P series battery life isn't impressive. P16 and older P

What do you consider decent battery life? I think the Dell XPS 15 or ThinkPad X1 Extreme could be a fit. Not quite the amount of VRAM you are looking for but I'm not sure why you are looking specifically at VRAM. ThinkPad P1 series has some GPUs with 8GB of VRAM if you really need.

Look for A ThinkPad P53 or P15 G1, yeah they're 15inch, not 16inch and they're heavy, but they have GPUs and can game. If you'd rather have a lighter carry then look for X1 Extreme or P1, gen 2 and 3, they're the same chassis, just one has Quadro graphics instead of GeForce. If you must have a 16 in

Any T/E/L series would probably be fine. Check with the help documentation on your 3d rendering software to see if it can use a graphics card. Sometimes modeling or texturing can be accelerated and sometimes it just needs to happen on the CPU so whether or not a P series (or something else witha GPU

Hello - I have been running a similar spec X1E (i711800H, RTX 3060, 16GB RAM) that I purchased in 2021, primarily on power desktop style for business use and some travel here and there. I can confirm the build quality is good. I had 1 screen replacement within the first year due to what I understand

I have the TL140BDXP01-00 panel in three of my ThinkPads, two T480s's and one X1C6. I am extremely happy with it. A few days ago I just received my fourth one, which will be going in my new T25 FrankenPad project. 300 nits is on the lower side of modern displays, but in my opinion still acceptable.

Interesting that the X1E2's are that much cheaper. On the used marked here, the X1E2 is typically listed around $600. I got mine very cheap, I bought two of them for $315 from the same seller, one was "broken" but the repair was free as it turned out the touchpad PCB had some debris on one of the co

I think this sounds normal right now with what you're describing (5-6 hours of battery life). Did you do the fresh install? What are the specs of the laptop by the way? I have a 2.8K OLED 90hz, 70W hr battery, X1E 12 core. 5-6 hours was normal for me the first few days of firing up the laptop. Once

I think the X1E is a solid choice. More keyboard travel. The CPU is more powerful than the X1C9's, the dGPU is nice if you have use for it and WON'T shorten battery life if you don't use it. It'll accept USB-C charging from chargers offering at least 60/65W up to the (then) USB-C maximum of 100W. No
