While a recent deal for the ThinkPad P16s is still available and offers a decent bang for the buck for buyers who are in the hunt for a capable desktop replacement, Lenovo's other ongoing sale might be worth a closer look for regular laptop users who need a more portable but still well-performing machine.
More specifically, the ThinkPad P14s Gen 6 is now back on sale as Lenovo is selling the configuration with the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX Pro 370 and 64GB of memory has dropped to $1,349 including free shipping. This amounts to an attractive 41% discount in relation to the original list price of $2,289. Please note that this version sports the Full-HD IPS screen with 1920 x 1200 pixels, 500 nits of brightness and 100% sRGB colors.
Alternatively, ThinkPad fans who would prefer a better display but can live with a bit less CPU performance can opt for the AMD Ryzen AI 7 Pro 350-equipped SKU of the P14s, which is currently on sale for $1,279 directly at Lenovo thanks to a similar 41% price drop. Most notably, that version comes with the gorgeous 2.8K OLED panel with 120Hz, 500 nits and 100% DCI-P3 color space coverage.
In any case, shoppers should check out our in-depth review of the Lenovo ThinkPad P14s Gen 6 before placing their order. We tested the Ryzen AI 9 version and were impressed by the CPU and keyboard, as well as the versatile port selection and comparably quiet fans. On the other hand, we noticed some coil whine and would've liked to see a dGPU option and longer battery life. Despite these shortcomings, the P14s is a well-made laptop that should get the work done for users who don't game or need a dedicated graphics card for their particular workflow.
