Single channel!? That is seriously effed up Lenovo, especially for a professional machine.

Not to mention small battery and no decent screen (I doubt it's going to be better than the Intel version). It's a bad joke.

guys can we please stop complaining about single channel. they chose the path to less productivity-more battery/more silent/smaller size. this is a deliberate choice, design. in this case single channel does nothing bad. i don't mind.
screen(s) was the problem, other than that-very promising best buy.

You know ThinkPad E series is the budget series in Thinkpad lineup right?

Do you even remember what was the last 14"/15" Thinkpad that was restricted to a single memory channel? There is a reason for that, and budget has nothing to do with it. The "not a Thinkpad" meme is more and more a prophecy of what is to come.

Thinkpad is a thinkpad. Single channel memory is a joke. Leave that stuff to ideapads, the real budged machines.

This model is DOA. A single ram slot in a 15" chassis is laughable. Combine this with a <45Wh battery (wtf?), <60% sRGB / <250 nit screen, and weak cooling system and you really have a pile of nothing. Oh, and they got rid of the microSD slot because reasons. Oh, and bottom-loaded keyboard because reasons. But hey, at least they kept the 2.5" hard drive bay!

There's almost nothing that distinguishes this from the $250 Walmart Motile AMD laptop.

Their higher tier AMD machines are not stellar either. All gimped compared to Intel counterparts.

I would say, the much nicer upcoming 15 inch ThinkPad with Ryzen is the ThinkPad L15, since that one at least has two RAM slots.

lol, single channel is a real meme. everybody repeating like parrots without a bit of understanding.
