@@roshanlalverma340 I'll say they provide a very appropriate amount of performance relative to their price tag.

@@Slap_Tech A mac intruder ? ಠಿ_ಠ

Apple doesn't have OLED screens, and getting 64GB of ram is basically out of the question...

They didn't, just the 8845HS is a higher power CPU.

No it's not just 200$. Ultra 7 cpu with bigger battery alone cost 200$ more 😂 let alone an Nvidia dGPU

@nhanNguyen-wo8fy I searched by exact model number and looking at prices at the same store, yeah it is 200 dollars difference.

Streets of Rage 4

​@@Slap_Tech First time viewer here, but seeing Streets of Rage 4 earned you a sub my friend 😄 also the informative & amusing comparison.

@@PureLuck21 Not in my experience. I was able to unscrew it. Unplugging it was too intimidating, so I didn't try. 😅 The AMD is easier, not even a cable, it just plugs right in.

@@matthewjackson2457 Personally, I'd have the P14s for the GPU, consistent performance and quality build.

@@protocolraptor2020 The P14s is the reliable option. Weighs more, but is still technically lightweight, battery life isn't as long but is still good enough and it has the RTX 500... just in case you need it. 😉

@ thank you much for ur reply😀Can’t wait for u to be famous and call myself an og. Buying a laptop is so stressful 😭 How would you say this thinkpad compares to the HP zbook firefly g11?

If you play a lot of PC games, get the G14 and use GHelper. I only prefer the P14s because it matters how I present myself while running meetings that follow Robert's Rules of Order. Battery life should be about the same and shouldn't steer you in one direction or the other. Same battery size, and with GHelper the AMD R9 will sip battery juice just as well as the CU7. Sure, the OLED panel on the G14 is going to cut down the battery by a noticeable margin, but that's the price you pay for near-zero ghosting.

@ Interesting. I don’t particular care much about the aesthetics or the price. I mostly just want something that can run cool-ish and get decent battery life while doing light multitasking, with the capability to do heavier multitasking at times. The G14 actually looks kinda compelling with its nice screen and gaming capabilities, not that I really game a ton. The option just seems nice, though. I’m just having a difficult time between these two. I have a P1 Gen 7 from work and have really liked it, which is why I figured I’d just stick with a Thinkpad for a personal Windows device. The 2024 G14 just keeps catching my eye. Any advice?

@@tac4137 Then get the ThinkPad P14s. Use Device Manager to disable the RTX 500 to reap all dat battery life in Energy Saver and still have plenty of performance for light multi-tasking, all while getting ultra-cool temps and almost zero fan noise. If you want to play modern games, turn the RTX 500 back on and be able to play anything. Plus it's literally the body of a miniature P1 and will feel uber familiar. Plus it's more reliable than the G14 and you'll appreciate the much higher build quality.

AMD model doesnot get a graphic one only intel 125

Yes, it does have Intel Arc graphics. You can use the Nvidia settings to set it to "prefer integrated graphics," but this doesn't guarantee your program (or game) will use the Arc iGPU. You'll have to use Device Manager to disable the RTX 500 in order to use only the Arc GPU at all times. It's not as user-friendly as Nvidia Optimus, but in Balanced mode on battery power you'll get 90 percent of total iGPU performance and the battery will last for about 2 hours of PC gaming.

@@Slap_Tech Nice, thanks!

This P14s Intel model can handle anything on Battery Saver, where it scores over 8K in Cinebench R23. That's enough for 4K video editing for the more patient PC users. In the use case you described, you should be able to leave it in Battery Saver and thus expect 5-6 hours of internet/work use in 60Hz mode at 65% brightness with Nvidia Control Panel set to prefer the integrated GPU. Fan noise will be nearly nonexistent at that point. They'll still spin, but at the slowest, most indiscernible speed. If you're still dead set on using Balanced mode with Nvidia Control Panel set to Auto, I would expect battery life of just under 4 hours with plenty more fan noise, which is very subdued and isn't shrill like other laptops. This renders a decibel rating pointless as your brain will easily tune it out. I would not worry a single iota about fan noise on the P14s.

@@Raptor-eg6zf You can't go wrong with either one, really. I hope my upcoming comparison video helps you become "unstuck." Also, here's a link to a refurbished lot of this Intel model for just about $1,000 USD, directly from Lenovo: www.ebay.com/itm/156532656390?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=7v2xfTH1TZO&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=HoR9TEfIReC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

im in a similar boat, hp zbook has some decent similar options at decent prices rn

​@@Slap_Tech Isnt the refurbished version a gamble? I know most of them don't have issues and turn out to be good, but is it really safe to consider the refurbished for long-term use (5years maybe)?

@Raptor-eg6zf I am actually in your same shoes. I was going to go for the AMD version with a similar specs 32GB and 1TB SSD, but I hesitated when I saw the battery life 52wkh. The Intel version has a 70+wkh I believe? But the price tag is much more expensive (extra $300). I am still contemplating and deciding, hopefully I will make a decision soon. Or hopefully there is a better deal coming the next few days for Black Friday... @slap_tech chip Could you chip in your opinion on this as well?

Try changing the power consumption mode

@@RobotIsaac12 This particular ThinkPad only has 1 fan in it and doesn't get very loud at all. When it ramps up during regular use, like web browsing or Office work, putting it in Energy Saver mode will calm it down immediately and there will be plenty of performance to go around for those tasks. Personally, I've been using this laptop for my 4K video editing in Adobe Premiere, and I've never been annoyed by the fan noise. In fact, I'm constantly commenting to myself about how quiet it is.

@@Slap_Tech I bought this laptop two days ago and it got very hot during the update and the fan was noisy. Next day I also noticed that it got hot woth normal browsing and installing programs. So, not sure if this is due to a defect in my unit or normal? Do I put it always in energy saver mode? Please advise Btw the laptop is very light and small . I did not expect that

@@juliomeza4371 Yes, both to HDMI and DisplayPort.

@@Flyboard12345 To me, "average load" means web browsing and Office work. For those tasks, it should definitely be set to Energy Saver mode, where the fans can only spin at the slowest, most subdued speed. There's plenty of CPU power to go around in Energy Saver for that usage scenario.

Do t14 gen5 and p14s gen5 amd make off carbon fiber? I think carbon fiber looks better and touch feeling better. If I drop laptop on the ground, will there be bumpy on carbon fiber or magnesium?

@@Simon-kz4dv Whatever they call it, it's plastic at the end of the day. The only magnesium part in t14g5 is a pretty thin plate of magnesium in the center of the palmrest. The bottom cover and the lid are plastic. Some people say it's reinforced plastic, but holy heavens, it's plastic and it feels like it. The aluminum (silver) model actually uses aluminum for both the lid and the bottom cover, but it is not available everywhere.

@@diet_lemonade Thank you for the detailed information.

The top is aluminum, and I think the bottom is magnesium. I have one and it’s so solid feeling

@@gnooy13mdfk According to Lenovo's PSREF site, it's 14". psref.lenovo.com/Product/ThinkPad/ThinkPad_P14s_Gen_5_AMD?tab=spec The Intel P14s gen 5 model is listed as 14.5" and it has a slightly larger body. I know this from personal experience. Subscribe and stay tuned! 😉

Tested on fedura and ubuntu, works properly, only the fingerprint does not work (won't even recognize the fingerprint scanner as a device)

​@@roeeheily9480 That's good news, I'm a bit sad that the fingerprint scanner doesn't work but it's not a real problem. Thank you!
