In real world speed. i5 8265u is faster than Ryzen 7 3700u? 

I checked this on userbenchmark.com
Is that real?any other factors that need to consider?

Not need heard , it’s real world speed.
https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel...566107vsm765724

Actually AMD Ryzen pro speed is good than enough without any issue like cpu fan kick in all the times.
Cause nobody wish their laptop to become very warm after usage an hour.

Other than weight, any opinions on T495 vs X395? πŸ€”πŸ€”

T495 comes with extra ram slot for you to add or when you customise can do upgrade at same time for Max 32gb or get 3700U onboard 8gb + 16gb ram.
Vs X395 Max 16gb Ram onboard.

Display size 14inch for T495 while the X395 just 13.3inch.
T495 has 400nits display while the X395 just 300nits for FHD.

The rest all same.

Ya one more thing is T495 without backlit keyboard only.

Battery life also the same?
*
X395 can hold more than 8-9 hours
T495 can last for 6-7 hours.

Tonight 12am or next morning has Citibank card 45% discount for selected models only, I’m not sure about T495 or X395 doing the same offering again.

Well I haven't used a laptop for quite some time. More of a desktop user. But now for my office I need something that's small as there's not much space to put a desktop.

Bought a dell inspiron in July but the display was so poor that I can't stand using even just for Web browser work. It was a ryzen 3, 4gb ram 1tb hdd, and some display probably inherited from the 2000s. hurts my eye when looking at it. Very lag even just for Web browsing.. Had it returned for refund. Then wen laptop-less and started to look around for other options.

Saw Benefon's thread at /k, and thought hey why I don't I try this. Used a coupon (forgot which one) but after adding ryzen 5 and the 250 nits display, came to about rm2500 (I checked today the same spec will come to around rm3400)

Can't be happier with my purchase. My first time owning a computer with ssd. My first Lenovo product as well. I'm really loving it.

In retrospect, I should have just added more RAM probably to 16gb and the display to multi touch. Maybe I didn't want to over commit due to just start new business.

My ratings for my T495:
1. Ergonomics 7/10: touchpad responsive, not the best keyboard I've tried on. maybe need some getting used to
2. Display 8/10. on the IPS wit 250 nits option, looks like something from the yesteryear but not to bad. at least it doesn't hurt my eyes.
3. Performance 10/10: for what I need to use for, I give this full marks.
4. Value for money 10/10. No further comments.

Thanks a lot for your contribution 😘😘
Great reviews

Just curious. Possible to add more ram myself? Or need to send to lenovo to open it to upgrade. Warranty concerns.
*
Yup u can try to add on yourself .
Anyway how to open the back cover can refer some YouTube video ThinkPad t490 teardown

Ram 2600mhz or 2400mhz it’s work from 2400mhz only.

Got some funny issue when I tried to install latest version of MS office.
I tried to uninstall all other versions by right clicking and uninstall them, but this Word app keeps appearing on the start menu.
Tried to press uninstall, go to add/remove programs and see nothing there, add/remove apps also not there.
Tried looking at start menu shortcuts in explorer and couldn't find it.

Have you fully windows updating done?
Such win 1903 Version
Even tho Lenovo vantage software?
