Reviews for the Lenovo ThinkPad T495s-20QKS01E00

88.4% Lenovo ThinkPad T495s Review: The AMD business laptop is good, but the fan is annoying | Notebookcheck
The ThinkPad T495s with the Ryzen 7 Pro 3700U is a serious alternative to the Intel-based T490s. The price in particular makes the device very interesting, since there are not many compromises compared to the Intel model.

Review: Lenovo ThinkPad T495s (AMD Ryzen Pro)
Source: Hexus English Archive.org version
Having laid the foundation with award-winning Ryzen desktop processors, it was only a matter of time until AMD made inroads into a laptop market typically dominated by rival Intel. We'd encourage Lenovo to add a WQHD display option, but for AMD fans and prosumers in general, the ThinkPad T495s is a noteworthy laptop that suggests a bright future for mobile Ryzen CPUs.

AMD Vega 10: Integrated graphics card of the Ryzen APUs based on the Vega architecture with 10 CUs (=640 shaders) and a clock of up to 1300 MHz.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.

Lenovo: Lenovo ("Le" from English legend, novo (Latin) for new) was founded in 1984 as a Chinese computer trading company. As of 2004, the company was the largest laptop manufacturer in China and, after acquiring IBM's PC division in 2005, the fourth largest in the world. In addition to desktops and notebooks, the company manufactures monitors, projectors, servers, etc, and specializes in developing, manufacturing and marketing consumer electronics, personal computers, software, enterprise solutions and related services.

In 2016, the company ranked first in the world in computer sales. It still held it in 2023 with about 23% global market share. Important product lines are Thinkpad, Legion and Ideapad.

In 2011, it acquired a majority stake in Medion AG, a European computer hardware manufacturer. In 2014, Motorola Mobility was purchased, which gave Lenovo a boost in the smartphone market.
