What is the Lenovo ThinkPad E15 Gen 2 about...

[@robinhood791]

Nice video. I ordered mine today. AMD Ryzen 7 pro 5850U, 16GB DDR4 and 512GB NVMe SSD variant. Just for €800. It's amazing how much you get for that amount of money.

[@mingkee27]

I finally snatched a 35% coupon and two more little coupons. $780 before any tax AMD 4700/8/256 I ordered another 8GB (PC3200 according to detailed spec) and I will add 1TB secondary SSD ~$1000 grand total after tax This laptop is for personal use and I will carry wherever I go I expect it will last up to 10 years

[@fuadmonsoon]

@@mingkee27 10 years? 6 is enough

[@AsidsTechTips]

Thanks for this great review Tom, absolutly bang on covered almost all of what i was hoping to learn. I would have liked to have gotten some info on battery capicity and your opinion based on your use of the batteries life. It was nice that you touched off the E series differentiating from the other series, but if i can offer a video idea, i would love it if somone would actully explain and really show the difference in the model series, ie why is a laptop of exact same spec that is an Intel T15 any different from a E15. Lenovo has a basic breakdown of the meaning of the letters but it does not really explain really what the difference is. I do know that back in the days of the T450s and the T480 that under that plastic is a carbotitanium exoskellaton with liquid drainage ports. where as the E450 did not have the same Military spec frame under its plastic. anyway thanks for the awesome video.

[@TomsTechVerdict]

Thank you.

Finally give up with my 2016 X1 Carbon. But can’t afford the latest X1, need the processing power and RAM for data analytics purposes. Can’t wait to open the box

[@mingkee27]

I snatched a nice 35% coupon and ordered AMD version (4700) The trackpoint is useful for scrolling 180° design is actually good to put it in the kitchen and watch TV without taking much space

[@kamilazman2943]

180 design is handy. it also serve as safety purpose somehow. My little brothers had a pillow fight or something suddenly a pillow flew straight to the laptop screen. luckily, the 180 safe the hinge from being boken.

[@consNpros]

Thanks for the detailed review 👍, I wonder if this model supports filp to boot?

[@vibhupande]

Hi, thanks for this. Since you've reviewed both e14 and e15, you could do a comparison on their keyboards. Are the main keys same size on both? Which one feels better at typing, esp in regard to where the hand sits /position of the trackpad?

[@gurdeepsingh2837]

Great review! Thanks for posting. Just ordered mine also yesterday.

I will stick with the X1 Carbon. Great review Tom!

[@ulasalaheldin1272]

What about it’s weight?

[@HydraStar01]

Thanks for the review, I read that the screen isn't very great and the colors don't look accurate, is that true or is it okay? Do white colors look yellowish or something? I'm a web developer and I do some light gaming so I want to make sure of these things.

[@TomsTechVerdict]

Hi Hydra star. The screen is fine. The colours are slightly saturated, but no yellow on white. Maybe a batch thing, not certain. If you want to buy one, get it from a store where you can easily return it if it does bot live up to your expectations.

[@HydraStar01]

@@TomsTechVerdict Thank you so much :)

[@waitandhope]

Thanks, I bought it using perks at work and upgraded alot, ditched the backlit keyboard only because I didn't see it until after ordering but I am weary if the LEDs fail of sending in for repair later. No thanks

[@tamilviral4010]

Does it have an IPS panel? Whats the SRGB%?

[@Tuxattack8094]

It's IPS but the SRGB is only upper 50% it's good enough for office software, coding, and basic usage but not the best if you're into photo and video editing. I just got an e14 gen 1 with the 10th gen i7 for 699USD. Great deal for what it is in my opinion. RAM although on module so single channel is an actual DIMM slot and not soldered and there's room for a 2.5" SSD/HDD. I personally like this config better than soldered memory because memory tends to fail and is a lot cheaper than replacing a motherboard. However I believe Gen 2 on has onboard RAM with a user upgradeable DIMM with higher max RAM. I still like my gen 1 and it make a good secondary or on the fly computer when i'm not near my primary PC

Hey Raj. I believe it is, certainly feels like it is made of plastic.

is the hinge made out of metal or plastic?

[@TomsTechVerdict]

The internal mechanism of the hinge is made of metal, but the top cover could be very hard plastic even though it feels like it is some sort of light metal.

[@tomloa245]

very good video , thanks

[@vikrantdarekar6978]

Can we add extra SSD and RAM in E15 Gen2 thinkpad

[@TomsTechVerdict]

I have never seen a Lenovo laptop with an extra m.2 nor SATA slots, but you can replace the drive with a bigger one (more gb) and create and extra partition for D drive, if D drive is what you are looking to achieve. As for RAM, it all comes s down to each model individually, depending on what the maximum gb capacity can the motherboard read. Usually, 16gb is a safe bet.

[@vikrantdarekar6978]

@@TomsTechVerdict As per my knowledge there is extract slot for SSD in this model but I am not sure.

There was one more viewer before you who thought so as well.

[@desaipriyank1]

What is the GPU here? Is this xe graphics or uhd graphics

[@TomsTechVerdict]

This particular one came with Intel Iris Xe. You can also get the E15 with integrated AMD Radeon.

[@i2_web642]

I can use Linux on this version ?

[@TomsTechVerdict]

It comes with Windows 10, but nothing stands in your way of installing any conventional Linux OS on it.

Do you realize yellowish tint on white backround that some cheap ips screen laptop strangely has?

Helpful review.

[@GenerationWealthTrain]

What's the display nits? Is it 250? Can you open the lid with one hand?

[@TomsTechVerdict]

I think it's closer to 300 nits. You can open the lid with one hand, but it is more of a sport than convenience.

[@manharsingh658]

How much does the battery last? hours?

Depending on how one use it, 3-5 hours.

With heavy usage, you are looking at less than 4 hours.
