    Thanks a lot for the review - I always look forward to your reviews of ThinkPads. I really am close to pulling the trigger, just am a tad turned off by the lack of Intel Meteor Lake in it. 13th Gen is essentially not up to date now, and Meteor Lake has finally closed Intels gap to last gen AMD Ryzen and Apple M. And also my X1 Extreme Gen 2 is essentially still doing fine, just the gaming performance has started lacking in the last year.

    Nice PC for those users who it is intended for. Camera and mics were good. Speakers sounded okay. Display is good. If you have a memory stick ddr5 lying around you might want to insert it in the second slot and rerun some of your tests to see how much it improves performance. Just a suggestion. Anyway a great review.

    Lenovo makes very Premium laptops whether you're talking about their consumer line or in this case, their business line and the ThinkPad P1 Gen 6 is a perfect example of a Premium business laptop. The 1440p resolution webcam is crisp and so is the audio quality of the built-in mics. The audio quality of the built-in speakers is not bad for a Windows laptop. As Andrew stated it brilliantly in this video, if this is the laptop you're interested in or any other Lenovo laptop for that matter, keep checking the Lenovo website as they're always having sales! Great video Andrew!! 👍😁

    Have P1 G6 with 13700H and A2000. Superb laptop also have only one 32GB dual channel stick but will upgrade to 64GB quad channel. One of the best features is 4g always on connection and secondary nvme option helps too. I have 2K 165Hz display and its the best option in my opinion as its not glossy at all and 60Hz is not enough. Only issue I had when I got it was with thermals but after repaste with Noctua H1 problems disappeared. Will do TG conductonaut and K5 PRO next week. Should see further improvements.

      @@andrewmarcdavidthe controller for ddr5 is on the ram itself , each stick runs in dual channel. You will get slightly better performance running two sticks but nothing like the difference when running one stick of ddr4 vs 2 sticks. For ddr5 at the same speed and latency, 32gb will be faster than 16gb that will be faster than 8gb. That is a more important concern. Don’t run 8gb sticks, they are slower.

I've had Asus and used Dell and prefer the Thinkpad keyboard. The TP keyboard also has a better layout with separate home/end/pgup/pgdn keys which I use a lot. The FN/Ctrl on a TP also works well for me because of why it's done that way; it's because it's easy to locate it without thinking when you need to turn on key backlighting in the dark. Again everything is personal preference and if TP ends up with a Dell or Asus keyboard I wouldn't buy it. Sadly every year that goes past they get thinner and more like those devices.
