eGPU comes with the GPU - it's together , else it would have been expensive. You can pick used one for RM 1600 or so. You'll get power of eGPU + power from the quad core
For me , I have to take original charger , I can't charge X1 Extreme with USB-C unless it is 85W or 100W even that it's slow charging. FOR X1C , you can easily charge it with 45W charger

That mean TB3 come with 100W still slower to compare the original charger?

I think the max spec T495 laptop is RM8K or something without the discount. Using my company money so I max out.

Now I am considering whether or not to order another one (with lower spec) for family use. If next month or end of Sept got bigger deal, I might give a second shot.

Can check my specs , order from SG

I am looking at P53s

What does selectable memory mean?

It is the empty SODIMM slot where I can add additional memory later?

If I do not add any selectable memory now, can I add it later?

Yup up to 64gb Max (32gbx2)

ThinkPad P1 Gen 2 impressive review.

The design build very solid than my previous X1 C6, this workstation can allow you to do more thing than slim X1 C6.
Actually I’m surprised about the SSD R/W speed more or less same as Samsung 970 Evo Plus, this time Lenovo packed with Samsung PM981a, lol I’m missed out another 1TB with offer price , cause I just customised for 1TB only.

Another thing is after installed eGPU of Nvidia control panel software cannot used with build in Quadro T2000 lol.. just left with external RTX2080 setup.

P1 Gen 2 4k display missing temple glass on cover, just like normal display, but the Color really rich same as X1 C6 WQHD HDR Color.

I love the weight cause just 1.7kg only and still able to charge with 100W PD from eGPU.

Regarding the airflow noisy, I’m accept cause still less noisy than my ex X1 C6.

P1 Gen 2 comes with Samsung PM981a the R/W very incredible , I am not too sure about previous Gen.
The price for PM981a were cheaper than 970 Evo Plus, but speed may slightly the same.
user posted image
After software installed the speed is decreased a bit.

Lenovo this time never removed the screw for extra SSD , somemore come with heatpad sticker for SSD.
user posted image

My conclusion:
Best Buy laptop from ThinkPad X1 Extreme/P1 Gen 1/2.
Cause you won’t disappoint of the weight and performance.
Against latest P1 Gen 2 slightly cheaper than previous Gen, if you consider to add on 64gb RAM with 1TB x 2 , the price are cheaper than X1 extreme Gen 2.

Oh that looks nice! Does opening the back cover not void the warranty?
*
ThinkPad allow you to open back cover, excepted to touch on motherboard.
Such as SSD and Ram or Wifi upgrade is warranty not under covered.
Except you remain on the factory parts.

Yes same as my ex Carbon 6th Gen, the fan blowing heats non stop and if you holding mouse on right hand, the heats will blows direct on you.
Make sure buy laptop stand for more air intake to solve the cooling system.

No issue, just when doing installation or charging with running heavy software the fan blower will kick in.
