Archive.org versionLisa Gade reviews the Lenovo ThinkPad P1 (generation 2) 15.6” thin and light mobile workstation. The laptop is nearly identical to the ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen. 2 that we reviewed, but the P1 has NVIDIA Quadro T1000/T2000 graphics and optional Intel Xeon processor for the CAD and scientific engineering folks. The laptop is available with a variety of displays including our 4K OLED matte HDR display option. It runs Windows 10 on Intel 9th gen CPUs, supports up to 64GB RAM, has two M.2 SSD slots and the usual superb ThinkPad keyboard. It weighs just 3.75 lb / 1.7kg and is 18.4mm thick.

NVIDIA Quadro T2000 (Laptop): Mid range dedicated graphics card for professional laptops based on the desktop GTX 1650 Ti and therefore the Turing architecture without raytracing and Tensor cores.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.
The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.

80%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
