I'm officially broke because of this sub
8840HS, 64GB, 4TB, 2.8K OLED. Reason for AMD only is because in Gen3, Intel was absolute, utter, garbage. In gen 4, Intel wasn't competitive, although wasn't garbage. In gen 5, Intel was competitive in the H vs. HS, but not in U vs. U, and still was behind AMD in H vs. HS. I wanted Intel E14 Gen7 (I

Is Framework laptops worth the premium? Developer looking for a new laptop
Just to give you another option: I bought a Lenovo Thinkpad E14 with Intel 255h CPU. This cpu might be better than the Ryzen and has a better gpu on top. Max RAM (not soldered) is 64gb. The Screen is my highlight so far. It has about 6-10 hours of battery depending on the workload. I never had any i

Meu professor falou que vamos usar linux?
Respondendo ao título: Se você não sabe o que seu professor falou, imagina nós. rsrsrsr "quero um [notebook] a prova de futuro que vou usar futuramente também" Aí você tem que saber o que você vai querer no futuro... mas para enfrentar a pancadaria da universidade, eu iria de Lenovo ThinkPad. 10k dá

I need help choosing my first Thinkpad for 2026
P.S. I am tech savvy, really like to tinker around with upgrades and what not, that’s why I’m pondering on the 14s since it has limited upgradability. Despite that, you do get a taller 16:10 display, decently robust chassis (lower half is all magnesium, instead of PPS/CFK), the most powerful iGPU he

Which laptop (second hand) should i buy ?
There's no E14 with dGPU and certainly not with a RTX2000 Ada (workstation GPU). Look at the Intel PSREF and AMD PSREF. In this sub, we'll never recommend an Ideapad because those are consumer, way lower quality line, with cheaper materials. Having said that, if you intend to run VMs, get the one wi

Need help choosing
ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 OLED New, that is about an $1,800 laptop. Paying a lot of money for a GPU that you'll never use outside of a weekend of smashing passwords. You want a ThinkPad. https://www.lenovo.com/us/outletus/en/p/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpade/lenovo-thinkpad-e14-gen-6-14-inch-amd/21m3x009us T

I have to choose one of them: E14 Gen7, T16 Gen3, L14 Gen5
155U is slighly less performant than 258V. And much worse in regard of battely life. 125U is even worse. E14 is practically the same low grade ThinkPad as L14. The difference is: E14 - Lenovo aiming this to small\medium business customers L14 - Lenovo aiming this model to entreprise customers (big c

After one year with my T480 as my daily, it’s time to move on.
Here, The T480(s) generation was replaced with T14(s) Gen3 AMD. Drastically improved CPU/iGPU performance (6th gen Ryzen7 has 8 cores, iGPU faster than dGPU on T480), first gen that reverted to 16:10 displays again. Real-world battery life when new was around nine hours with the WUXGA screen, quiet

Can current Lenovo laptops be used to play games(mid specs)?
ThinkPads aren't really for gaming. The cheapest new ThinkPad on Lenovo's website is the E14 Gen 7 with a Core 5 210H, but it only has 8GB of RAM for over $800. I wouldn't recommend buying a new ThinkPad just because the prices are so high when they are initially released.

Dere som studerer informatikk/data, hvilken laptop ville dere anbefalt?
Ser Thinkpad T14 er nevnt. Det er ei knallbra forretningsmaskin, men har mykje kjekt-å-ha for bedrifter. Lenovo har skutt seg litt i foten med budsjettmodellen, E14. E14 Gen5 var såpass bra og så mykje rimeligare enn T14 at mange bedrifter som vanligvis ville kjøpt T14 gikk for den. Samme ytelse, fæ
