MacBook Pro is garbage: only 16 gigs of RAM, terrible battery life, Touch Bar gimmick, full of bugs, weak GPU. Nothing is upgradeable. All useful ports have been removed. Tim Cook wants 3500 dollars for that pos? What a joke! Lenovo P50 & P70 get the job done right.
My university got 5 of these to do electrical engineering simulations and I can tell you this is a BEAST. I am a Dell guy but my next laptop will be a lenovo P50.
albertosamaniego I’m buying one tomorrow, probably the P51, but I’m still hesitating between this and the Dell alternative. Are you still on the same opinion today?
@@victor-emmanuel7485 hi, yes! I have the P50 is a very good workstation for engineering simulations. Right now lenovo have more options like the P51, P52, P52s and the new P1
Hello there! I'm planning to buy a ThinkPad for my statistical computing needs. I normally use SAS & R for exploratory data analysis of very large datasets. I'm thinking of X1 Extreme, P1, & P72. Which machine, in your view, will suit my needs. Thank you for your response in advance! Mabuhay! - from the Philippines
I like the product. I'm not sure what happened at Lenovo. I've been trying to purchase a Lenovo p71 directly from Lenovo since 5- 29-18. Moments after I placed the order Lenovo Group withdrew the funds. Then canceled my order providing no explanation! The funds ($4500 USD) was misplaced in the system for almost four days. Finally, the returned the funds, I placed the order for the second time and they withdrew the funds instantly. The order was placed, and that's when I found out it would take 26 days to process the order. Now they have sent the funds back to my bank account only to withdraw it for the fourth time when the laptop actually ships. I've never experienced anything like that with any other transaction. In fact, financing a car is easier than buying a Lenovo product.
Intelligent and not violent at all, pay 3k+ for such machine then go rat hunting armed with its power brick to smash-stun the rodents, prior to strangling them with the power cord. As an extremely low budget enthusiast I will have to content myself with only admiring this beauty of a Thinkpad while I stick to my good old T400.....
Thanks a lot for the review Lisa. I was more interested with the P50 but with this review I can make myself a pretty good idea. Thanks again and keep us update lisa.
Finally, a review for this laptop... and a good one too. Thank you. Btw, you said, at some point in the vid, that your P70 is maxed out but you can actually get an even stronger GPU (Quadro M5000M). Please consider doing a review for the ThinkPad P40 Yoga as well. It looks awsome. Might be the best of all worlds, for (non heavy duty, but yet still) professionals and creative casual users, alike.
This is the first time I've seen an HDD indicator light on a ThinkPad in a LONG time. Last ThinkPad to have such indicator lights were the x230 and t430 series.
I recently purchased a P50 and am extremely happy with all the hardware with the exception of the 4K display. My two core CAD applications, Solidworks and Autodesk Fusion 360 do not scale well in Windows. A Lot of other niche legacy apps have problems as well. Given this experience I would not recommend the 4K display to CAD users. Windows has a lot of room for improvement befor 4K is really ready for prime time.
+Feng Xiao Oh i checked. Both tools claim to support 4K and admittedly Autodesk Fusion 360 is not all that bad it is just a bit odd when doing some of the scaling. SolidWorks 2016 (Student Edition is what I have) does not really support 4K the issue is the 'hit boxes' of the snapping and point selections functions. The 'hit boxes' are a fixed number of pixels in size on a 1080p or even 1440p display this is no problem but on a 4K display the hitboxes are a complete pain to hit.
+Kevin Moondust Check out the Thinkpad page. If you choose the 1080 touch model, you can get the thinkpad pro pen. I believe it might be using the Wacom AES tech.
Rebelismo Eric Xu Guys, I own two ThinkPad tablets, I'm not talking about touchscreens or digitizers, here, but THIS: www.notebookcheck.org/fileadmin/_processed_/csm_thinkpad_w700_tastatur1_a02590e08a.jpg Back in the day, the W700/W701, both in normal and ds versions, had an INTEGRATED WACOM Pen Tablet. If this P70 had that same option, it would be utterly awesome. As for the keyboard, I'll call BS. Technology might be progressing, but chiclet keyboards are as old as the non-spaced keyboards that were abandoned. It's still unacceptable that Lenovo hasn't returned to that. I know the older keyboards flexed a lot, but that can be fixed by some reinforcements. Plus, ThinkPads were conceived as mobile workstations in every sense of the word, that also meant usability and getting used to them. Tell me one time where you were in front of a desktop computer, using a chiclet keyboard... And there you have the reason for my argument.
+Kevin Moondust I have to honestly say that I didn't know something like that existed. May I ask what type of work you do? Out of all the designers/digital inkers I know, none of them would ever want to work on a small screen tablet monitor. The same goes for an even smaller regular tablet. I used to carry an intuos with my laptop before I got one that had a built in screen digitizer. I'm assuming you don't like the form factor of carrying an extra tablet with you?
+Kevin Moondust I wish that Lenovo would bring some of the classics back with new tech, I despise that everything has to be super thin and soldered down these days.
Really like your tech reviews. Very informative. As many other requested, could you please also review the Lenovo Thinkpad P50s. Would like to learn how it stacks up against various Ultra books. If it is a small gain of weight with significant gain in power or not. Also, whether to opt for ECC memory or its not that important. Does 4K worth the extra money on a 15 inch screen? How heavy is the power cord and is the whole ensemble is too bad to carry? Lots of questions and I am sure you would answer them all. Thanks in advance.
I would like to see a digitizer stylus option. In R&D and Teaching I would dig both, a powerful workstation and an option to properly annotate documents.
Bought the P71 but had to return it to Lenovo because of a screen problem. They then keep it for over 1 month saying that the motherboard which was unavailable for an undetermined time, had issues too. Customer service was so bad that I decided to completely cancel that order and will definitely never buy any Lenovo product again! So, I am looking at the HP Zbook G4 17. Lisa, it would be great to see a comparison between them! :)
Love this. Got a P50 and am very pleased with it. Not light, but manageable and does everything I need (in fact capable of far more). I'm sure I'll own and use it long enough to forget the price!
Fantastic review Lisa! Were you able to try out the 1080 touch version with the Thinkpad Pro Pen? Honestly though, this has to be one of the most impressive laptops I've seen in a long time. A 17 inch display, Nvidia card, and a thinkpad pro pen. This sounds like a designer/3d content creator/video editor portable dream machine.
Hi Lisa liked your review of the thinkpad p70 ,unfortuntey here in kenya they are not available ,i wish i could have one like that,im an engineering student but do part time content creation and m stuck with the old hp elitebook mobile workstation 8740w with dedicated gpu from ATI Firepro 700 series,its getting old and not efficient,where can i buy the lenovo from???THANKS.
can you please do a quick demonstration of the pen/touchscreen option that they have for the P70? Oh and also do you have to choose the touchscreen option to use it? I think it's called the thinkpad pen pro and it should be compatible.
Besides the size of the screen, you pointed out the main difference between the 17" and the 15" is the graphics. My primary purpose for buying one of these would be for trading stocks, which involves lots of charts. I have no idea how graphics intensive drawing charts is for a laptop. Would there be a noticeable difference between the two computers as to how fast each draws a chart, or numerous charts? How about when watching videos, any difference in displaying, say, hi def videos? Thanks in advance, Lisa, or anyone.
Hello Lisa! Thank you for your awesome and detailed reviews. I've been subscribed to your channel for a couple of years now. I've been eyeing the ThinkPad line of workstations for a while, as I'm due for an upgrade of my daily driver. I think Lenovo has finally released a very compelling duo in the ThinkPad P1 and ThinkPad P72. I'm finding it hard to choose between the two. One key feature is the mention of 10-bit color depth in the 4k touchscreen displays. I'll be using whichever of these I choose for Feature Film production (both in the studio and on location), and my workflow will mainly deal with 10-bit footage. I need to know if the P1's 15.6" 4k will come with a true 10-bit display, or will that feature only be available on the 17.3" 4k display of the P72? Lenovo's official spec sheet and press release for the P1 are a bit confusing, in that one mentions the 10-bit display, while the other makes no mention of the 4k screen having 10-bit color depth. I look forward to watching your detailed reviews of these mobile workstations before I make my final purchase decision. Thank you!
Appreciate this review. I recently purchased a P70 with a 2GB graphics card. I would be interested if you think that the Thunderbolt 3 connector will function with the new Lenovo BoostStation to enable higher level graphics card output. Thank you.
I wonder how this puppy does with gaming (with the Quadro M5000M in it). I want a new laptop for work (I'm an Oracle DBA) and also would like to have a machine for gaming without building two rigs. I wish they would offer this with a 1070 in it.
+MobileTechReview Looks amazing, I hope I'll buy it within a year if everything goes well. That's just a wet dream for engineer's work! 11/10 Lenovo. But I have a question, it is WWAN READY. So does it mean I can buy LTE 4G modem and install it by myself and it has antennas and wires and WWAN port already prepared?
Great Review!!! Tank you Lisa @MobileTechReview :) I have the Lenovo P71 with the highest specs (4k IPS, Xeon 1535, 64Gb 2400Mhz ECC, Quadro P5000, 2X Samsung 960Pro 1Tb NvMe Raid 0, Secondary storage: Crucial MX300 2Tb SSD, Sierra LTE modem) I wish I was living in your area... i would have brought it to you for review, I really really love this workstation and i'm sure you would have love to review it as well :)
just curious, do you use your camera mic when you first start off the video and switch over to a different mic? the audio quality is vastly different between the cuts
+voltare2amstereo In Feb with education and Chinese New Year discounts, I scored a P50 with i7-6820HQ, Quadro M2000M 4GB, 4K screen, 2 x HDD, 8 GB RAM and all other upgrades maxed out, $2685 Australian.
I've been a Mac user for a while (5 out of 25 years), but am underwhelmed by both performance and price of the current models and looking to switch back. Does the trackpad behave similarly to the one on the MacBook? Can you use multi touch or is it just one finger kind of pointing? Currently have a late 2011 MBP 17" who's logic board is on the verge of failing (constant graphics issues/kernel panics) Not opposed to a $3,100 laptop, but trackpad features are important.
Hey :D a comparison against the thinkpad p70 vs the hp zbook g3 would be amazing! i currently have the g2, but want to upgrade and have been waiting for the g4, but really looking into lenovo as recommended by friends and co workers. -College Student, studying computer engineering
I don't have this laptop yet, but i red a lot of review laterly. Some reviews even mention 8-10 hours for 1080p with screen dimmed at ¬50% or something while browsing the web or watching videos. Its a 90WH battery which is huge. Also they say that the battery charges very fast.
xrite only works once,then says too replace your panel ,plus other errors .you need to uninstall reinstall the software for it to work again.there are no updates for it either,so its useless
Please suggest Mobile Workstation 15'' or 15.6" for Engineering work : Schematic using AutoCad or ePlan P8 and 3D modelling using Inventor Pro Lenovo ThinkPad P50 vs HP ZBook Studio vs Dell Precision vs Apple Mac Book Pro?
Why do companies keep doing the "service hatch" thing. It is so much easier to just remove the whole bottom of the chassis. The external batter is welcome though.
Icanhasautomaticcheeseburger Dell has shown that the entire bottom can be held on with a single screw on the Inspiron 7000 series. Even my "water resistant" Precision notebook has 7 screws to hold the whole bottom on.
Hey Lisa, I was wondering if the Lenovo P50 would be decent for computer for Autodesk Maya usage? I'm not using it for say - universal studios kind of rendering, but more so for biomedical modeling. I would really like it to be my daily driver so any advise with that would be great. Thanks :)
Apple, this is a pro laptop. Not that crap you're selling. Seriously though, the MacBook "pro" is ridiculously stupid.
MacBook Pro is garbage: only 16 gigs of RAM, terrible battery life, Touch Bar gimmick, full of bugs, weak GPU. Nothing is upgradeable. All useful ports have been removed.
Tim Cook wants 3500 dollars for that pos? What a joke! Lenovo P50 & P70 get the job done right.
Dave Satay I stopped with Apple after the 2011 MacBook Pro. That was the last best MacBook they made.
UltimateXtreme What am I supposed to do then if I need a Mac for development? Running a VM isnt practical
running a vm on a machine like this is practical, its what its designed to do.
couldnt agree more mate, me too, last apple's laptops that i buy is MBP 2011, after that year i decide to move to THinkPad..

I got one too!!!!!
I paid good money for it
Heck I bet I these xeon laptops could be used as a mainframe server or control other servers like nothing
It's 12:32 am on my birthday, and I'm watching ThinkPad reviews.

Its pricey tho

Hey Liz, is it possible to upgrade this Lenovo to 6TB since it has 3 storage options and that Samsung just came out with their new 2TB NVMe M.2 drive
Part of the Only laptop range that has been certified for use on the international space station
Can you please review the P50s model.
Guessers12 it's the p50 but worse (lower specs, less ports generally cheaper) for not much less than the normal p50
Mine has the exact same specs, absolute monster of a machine. Loving every minute of working on it.
Why did they remove volume buttons ?
thank you! just got the p50 and I love it.
Glad to see a return to form in the thinkpad line.
+ZyTech I have to disagree- Lenovo still needs to offer a WACOM incorporated tablet and the old keyboard layout to win me back.

also the slightly older but incumbent desktop/server replacement 24threads 12core Eurocom 5SE Panther
I'm still good with my trusty W540, so maybe I'll hold onto it a while longer, but I do lust after this one.
why put that orange mouse button in the middle of the keyboard?
great review but are you sure you can choke a rat with the AC cable? it doesn't look like it will bend easily.
Could you review the p73? There are currently zero reviews out on the internet.
Should I buy this now or wait for the refreshed version?
btw, Lisa, I got the P50 and I wanted to compare my screen. any chance you post the photos you use as desktop wallpaper in this and other reviews?

Please make a review for the T460s and t460p
Please please please review the Lenovo Thinkpad P50s!
Page up/down keys are at the arrow keys - what the crap?!
Whats the battery life like?
+doctormac123 six hours..
+Anderson Cooper that pretty good for what it is
I don't believe you. Is that on idle?
I don't have this laptop yet, but i red a lot of review laterly. Some reviews even mention 8-10 hours for 1080p with screen dimmed at ¬50% or something while browsing the web or watching videos. Its a 90WH battery which is huge. Also they say that the battery charges very fast.
+Lawrence Lugar I know that's what I would buy anyway. I only asked because it wasn't mention in the review.
Any news on the Thinkpad Yoga 460 (Skylake w/Nvidia)?
how about a review of the samsung Notebook 9 pro 15.6”
are you gonna review the P50s?
xrite only works once,then says too replace your panel ,plus other errors .you need to uninstall reinstall the software for it to work again.there are no updates for it either,so its useless
Was searching for the P72, great review nevertheless!!!
Everything would be fine and could justify the price if there was a removable processor, and here BGA soldered to the board
Please suggest Mobile Workstation 15'' or 15.6" for Engineering work : Schematic using AutoCad or ePlan P8 and 3D modelling using Inventor Pro
Lenovo ThinkPad P50 vs HP ZBook Studio vs Dell Precision vs Apple Mac Book Pro?
Is it good for gaming?
Why do companies keep doing the "service hatch" thing. It is so much easier to just remove the whole bottom of the chassis. The external batter is welcome though.
+Folopolis As someone who has had to work on both, 5 captive screws on a Thinkpad > 12 non-captive screws on a Macbook Pro.
Icanhasautomaticcheeseburger Dell has shown that the entire bottom can be held on with a single screw on the Inspiron 7000 series. Even my "water resistant" Precision notebook has 7 screws to hold the whole bottom on.
Hey Lisa, I was wondering if the Lenovo P50 would be decent for computer for Autodesk Maya usage? I'm not using it for say - universal studios kind of rendering, but more so for biomedical modeling. I would really like it to be my daily driver so any advise with that would be great.
Thanks :)
