> bulky 16" ThinkPad.
I'm surprised nobody mentioned the thinkpad x1 extreme laptop. It was basically the lenovo/thinkpad response to the xps 15. It's way thinner than the ThinkPad T16/P15 lines.
they claim it's a 16" laptop but only because they made the bezel smaller enough to fit a larger display in the same space.
it's usually mostly on par with the dell xps but i'm not sure about the specs though... my personal laptop is a rusty thinkpad x270 (i'm torn between the newly announced m4 macbook air or the upcoming framework 12) and i've been issued a m3 macbook pro for work.
- noisy_boy 2y agoI have an X1 extreme gen 2 - great expandability (two SSD slots), good port selection, not too heavy but runs hot, the GPU is crap and the battery life isn't great. Running pop os with KDE on it; normal usage.
- ako 2y agoHas 32gb of memory max. My current 5 year old thinkpad P1 has 64GB, not going back to 32.
- znpy 2y agoFalse. I just checked https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpadx1/thinkpad-x1-extreme-gen-5-(16-inch-intel)/len101t0018#tech_specs https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpadx1/t... and it says the laptop has two ddr5 slots, i guess you could load up to 128gb in there using the newest 64gb sticks.
- ako 2y agoFalse, you’re linking to the X1 gen5, newest is gen12, which has a maximum of 32gb soldered, no slots: https://www.lenovo.com/nl/nl/p/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpadx1/thinkpad-x1-carbon-gen-12-14-inch-intel/len101t0083 https://www.lenovo.com/nl/nl/p/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpadx1/t...
