You may want to wait for these (Thinkpad L14/15) being released ... load up the RAM to at least 32GB (16GBx2)

Strictly gaming w the GPU being the same Intel wins (assuming the 4 core 10300H)... Almost anything else AMD wins but the A15 runs hot for being choked for air.

I’m a light gamer I’d say haha, so proceed with AMD (A15) would be a better option?

If you want Ryzen, avoid A15

May I know your usage? Any preferences on weight and battery life?

A15 not okay?
Usage: mainly on CAD software & Microsoft Office. Light game
Battery life: hopefully to reach 5 hours without plug

Ya saw some retailer brought it the 1650 and 1650ti version. Price wise is 3499 and 3799..
Was wondering if the Ti is worth the RM 300 price difference?

Fine with low sRGB display and non-upgradeable RAM?

Why get A15 when you can get a better cooled Legion 5 for around the same price (after discounts). Can configure optional 144Hz 100%sRGB display and 80Wh battery some more

Not worth, would go for 1660Ti/2060 if budget allows

True true.. Just wondering, will 1650ti be more future proof than 1650?

Combine with poor cooling for A15 then gg right hahah

Does low sRGB mean lower range of colours and will be less vibrant? I don't mind with non-upgradable RAM.
