Lenovo ThinkPad P15v review – it’s all about the software and the amazing UHD display
Source: Laptop Media English
There are certain key points around this notebook, that sets it apart from the rest. First and foremost, it is the entire security platform, that it provides. Then, there are the privacy features like the optional fingerprint reader, and IR face recognition camera. As you can see, we are not discussing anything around the hardware. Well, this is for a reason. First of all, the Core i7-10750H in our unit was performing okay, but definitely not on the level of other machines on the market. Even the HP ZBook Power G7 was working at similar clock speeds but was 20°C cooler under stress. This may have to do with the use of a single heat sink, and a single fan, from Lenovo.

Lenovo ThinkPad P15v Gen 2 review – it desperately needs better cooling
Source: Laptop Media English
There is one question we can’t get answered. Why do manufacturers cripple their otherwise powerful machines with unimpressive cooling solutions? Why bother making a workstation with a CPU that can easily manage 100W of TDP if the thermal management won’t let it even use its rated TDP of 45W? This is question is relevant to the ThinkPad P15v Gen 2, its predecessor – the ThinkPad P15v, the Dell Precision 15 3561, and a lot more laptops out there. You can have the best keyboard on the market (and Lenovo sure does), and an I/O that every laptop user will be envious of, but being unable to maximize your hardware’s performance is petty. Other than that, this unit seems pretty good. As we said, the port selection is more than decent with an SD card reader, Thunderbolt 4 connector, an optional SIM card reader, and a lot more. As for the internal ports – you get two SODIMM slots for memory expansion, and two M.2 slots for PCIe x4 drives. Lenovo ThinkPad P15v Gen 2’s IPS panel (AUO B156HAN02.1 (LEN40BA)) has a Full HD resolution, comfortable viewing angles, and a good contrast ratio.

86.2% Lenovo ThinkPad P15v G2 laptop review: Affordable business workstation | Notebookcheck
Lenovo's ThinkPad P15v G2 is an inexpensive 15-inch workstation with a 4K display option in a fairly slim format. It is not only quick, quiet and robust, but also offers acceptable battery runtimes, very good input devices, fast Wi-Fi 6 and expansion options.
