The Lenovo ThinkPad P16 has always been a high-end mobile workstation with lofty price points, but a current offer for a maxed-out configuration of the 16-inch Lenovo machine exemplifies the ludicrous pricing in the laptop and PC segment these days.

Truly intriguing laptop deals are hard to come by these days, which is especially true for professional high-end machines with lots of memory, storage space and other powerful components including a dedicated graphics card with lots of VRAM. All these boxes are arguably checked by the Lenovo ThinkPad P16, which has now received a rather amusing discount.

More specifically, B&H Photo Video has discounted the maxed-out model variant of the ThinkPad P16 Gen 3 by $5,500 or 38 percent relative to the official list price. This applies to the model variant with an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX, 192GB DDR5 RAM and 4TB SSD storage. Furthermore, this notebook is powered by an Nvidia RTX Pro 5000 Blackwell GPU with 24GB VRAM and features the tandem OLED panel with 3200 x 2000 pixels, 120Hz and up to 1,500 nits of peak brightness in HDR mode.

That might sound like a good deal, but considering that Lenovo's MSRP stands at a whopping $14,499, buyers still have to shell out a staggering $8,999 for this admittedly very well-equipped 16-inch laptop. For reference, Lenovo itself is currently selling a similar configuration with 128GB DDR5 RAM for a couple hundred dollars more in its official online store.

ThinkPad P16 with high AI performance but undersized PSU and limited TGP

Putting the insane price aside, the ThinkPad P16 Gen 3 is obviously designed for professional users who are confident that they need this amount of RAM, VRAM and processing power. We thoroughly reviewed a less expensive version of this 16-inch laptop and called it a "local AI monster" that has become more portable compared to the predecessor and still offers a lot of performance.

On negative side, the RTX GPU is limited to a TGP of 105 watts and the notebook ships with a 180-watt power supply, which can be overwhelmed when the device runs at full load. With all that said, this is a sinfully expensive machine for a very specific group of professional users who might be looking for a huge business expense deduction on next year's tax return.

Port selection on the Lenovo ThinkPad P16 Gen 3 includes Thunderbolt 5, HDMI and 2.5GbE
