Reviews for the Lenovo ThinkPad T495s-20QKS01E00
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.

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.

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.
