ThinkPad P1 Gen 8

I personally want a T1G which is a P1 with consumer graphics. Just the idea of a gaming capable ThinkPad really does it for me. I have an X1E gen 2 with a 1650 which does the trick for now. But I do want something newer eventually. Possibly will look to buy at the end of next year when this year's m

Good news for your USB-C comments. New ThinkPad model has a user replaceable USB-C port. https://www.notebookcheck.net/GaN-chargers-accross-the-board-and-modular-repairable-USB-C-Hands-on-with-the-new-Lenovo-ThinkPad-P1-Gen-8-and-P16-Gen-3.1106756.0.html The ThinkPad DNA absolutely continues to exis

This was already mentioned but if you haven't yet, search for the hardware maintenance manual for the models you're looking at. Some of this should be in the user manual, e.g. you can see the list of customer replaceable units (IBMese for user replacement parts) and the instruction for that in the m

Screw the MacBook, go for the ThinkPad. MacOS updates are always a f*cking mess with any 3rd party tools/apps - especially Python (brew-installed) versions. I've always been biased against Apple products since they make repairs unnecessarily difficult and costly. Steve Jobs was a hacker and a modder

Opinie nepopulară aici: Ia-ți un Lenovo Thinkpad second hand sau refurbished. Seria P sau T sunt cele mai durabile.

Go with the ThinkPad T1g (same as P1, with different GPU options), Gen 8. I got the full maxed out version with the 64GB LPCAMM2 ram module. Smooth as butter. From my order post: I had a chance to test this laptop further: fan had a minimum noise to almost no noise during youtube video watching, som

P1 has 2 slots and P16 has 3! Beware though, only one of those 3 in the P16 is a PCIe 5.0 slot (for faster Gen 5 SSDs). Checkout the detailed psref for both: * P1: https://psref.lenovo.com/Product/ThinkPad/ThinkPad_P1Gen_8 * P16: https://psref.lenovo.com/syspool/Sys/PDF/ThinkPad/ThinkPadP16_Gen_3/ThinkPad

I just bought a used P1 gen 6 with 16gb RAM, 512SSD, Win 11 Home, i7-13800H,14core...Price $1369 incl tax and Windows product key ($35). It also is under warranty for 4 more months from Lenovo. Any thoughts? Looks great and according to a Gen 6 vs 7 comparison, gen 6 is better for raw power and memo

For me it's always been lack of parity with windows. I mean on a driver level. If you buy a laptop with a fingerprint reader, or IR camera for windows hello login, there really isn't a solution to get those working in Linux unless the manufacturer supports it. Lenovo and thinkpads are known to have

Not sure about upgradability, but I was running out of storage with my ThinkPad P1 Gen 3. I was able to buy a 2 TB NVME SSD, as that ThinkPad conveniently has a second un-used NVME slot!
