QUOTE(mechfrontier @ Jul 30 2019, 04:48 AM) X395 don't have 16gb option Yeah seems max is 8gb. Can consider T495, which is also considered ultra portable but slightly bigger than x395.  It has additional RAM slot that you can upgrade yourself or customize at Lenovo website up to 16gb (total 24gb). |

Well now buying laptop, so should compare with other laptop offerings right? i see even intel on the site shows 14 nm technology for their mobile processors. |

QUOTE(kingmafia @ Jul 31 2019, 09:04 PM) Will it heat? How does the battery life perform? Yeah many reviews for ryzen say it's hot. Also expect battery life lower compared to Intel. Saw on one forum it say by 1 hour and a half. But this Thinkpad can buy 65W charger for fast charging. |

QUOTE(versey @ Jul 31 2019, 10:37 PM) This is true... Yeap and so far reviews quite okay. Even the Thinkpad subreddit a lot going for the T495 or X395 version of the series instead of Intel.But if can get cheap, then it's worth it. "Everyone on here who gets a T49X gets the T495 instead of the T490 or T490S. Don't blame them, Ryzen is sweet." -r/thinkpad |

QUOTE(Benefon @ Aug 1 2019, 08:49 AM) Today price 😓  
Now the base price is this. Really worth it this sale. But Lenovo is known to change prices on their website. On Citi sale that day they say I save rm2K, but last night after midnight I did a check, they say I saved rm1K. Today back to normal web price. Nonetheless still happy cause for base model price, I got a full spec laptop. |

One thing delivery is long. But hope somehow can come earlier. Before I order I check other people say 8-10 days. Maybe cause sale, they take longer to ship out due to volume of orders. This post has been edited by kuci_mayong: Aug 1 2019, 02:17 PM |

QUOTE(Benefon @ Aug 1 2019, 02:16 PM) Nah.. mine much slower than your , I think that customized made model took longer Haha for the price I willing to wait. Before this I was looking at Acer and Asus for their price. And getting a thinkpad for the same price is really good feeling. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « But one thing about Lenovo is you need watch out their online pricing. They keep changing and make you feel like you save rm2K when actually it's probably less. But still the discount is good even though they play with their prices. https://www.reddit.com/r/Lenovo/comments/ci...igher_for_t490/ |

QUOTE(spacecopgaban @ Aug 2 2019, 01:11 PM) I have 2 amd laptops now, both lenovo ideapads, one 5 years old (a8-6410), one bought in dec last year (r5 2500u). That's why these amd thinkpads are a big deal. First time a company put in amd in their high end laptops.Now I’m eyeing the ideapad s340 (nbplaza) for it’s slimmer profile and better battery life, but might just wait for ryzen2 next year. Would love to get the ultrabook-ish asus vivobook now (techhypermart), but asus doesn’t offers the 15” version here  The problem with amd laptops now is not the performance or heat. Battery life also no issue now, ryzen gen2 greatly improved over gen1. The problem is, manufacturers putting low end features for most amd laptops, and positioning them as low cost alternatives to intel i3/celeron. Getting a decent high end one is hard, there’s always a trade off somewhere. Eg. single channel ram, soldered dimms, 1w speakers, usb 3.0 gen1 ports, no usb c (seriously asus tuf???), usb c not supporting alternate mode (dp/hdmi), wifi ac 1x1, BT 4.1, 720p 15” screen (seriously lenovo L340???). And poor cooling & heavy throttling: https://www.notebookcheck.net/Lenovo-laptop...r.427320.0.html Before this even Lenovo had the A series to differentiate between T and X series, only difference is like you said, lower spec quality and also lower build quality. But this time the amd version T and X series have all the high end specs that the Intel version has including the military spec test laptop build.
