Lenovo has announced an upgraded ThinkBook 16p Gen 4 with Intel Raptor Lake-H and Nvidia RTX 4060 Laptop GPU options. The ThinkBook 16p Gen 4 now comes with a 3.2K 120 Hz mini-LED option along with upgrades to Wi-Fi 6E and a 11-pin pogo connector on the display for attaching the new Magic Bay accessories.https://www.notebookcheck.net/Lenovo-Thinkbook-16p-Gen-4-now-features-a-3-2K-120-Hz-mini-LED-display-along-with-Intel-Raptor-Lake-H-and-Nvidia-RTX-4060-options.679280.0.html
Again, no AMD variant. Manufacturers 'opting' for no amd variant meaning they ghosted them, or AMD not able to supply them, or Intel greased the executives' pockets.
AMD is dead.
Complete nonsense. Again, not a standard, 1080p compatible resolution. Lenovo, why all this? Why not 4k@120Hz? This is universal resolution. And the panels have been around for a long time. Including miniLED - which is still a crutch and junk with glitches around the text on the border of the zones.
When will microLED be available?
I am in the market for a high-end laptop but refuse to buy one with an off-centered keyboard (due to the numeric keypad that I never use). Unfortunately the P series with a centered keyboard have a thermal issues.
You don't use it, but most professionals do. Scientists, engineers and especially programmers desperately need a classic numpad. It speeds up text and number input operations, and also speeds up group operations in file managers at times when it works in navigation block mode. Without it, my speed of blind typing and encoding immediately drops significantly. A normal laptop must have a normal classical numpad. And for those who are busy with a small amount of text input, let there be separate scanty special series. I never work with the touchpad because it's just plain inefficient compared to a good mouse.

Exactly! I don't understand why people complain of being given an option even when they have enough space.

I am a software engineer and never use the num pad. The ergonomics, to me, is so bad that I carry an external keyboard with my P51.

This means that the efficiency of entering the code by you is extremely low. No other is given. It is impossible to efficiently enter data without having the keys for direct access to basic operations and for group operations as a navigational efficient block. This is a priori impossible. No one can quickly write massive code on a 14" laptop keyboard. Proven by tests.

Why are you use thinkpad P1 16 inch?
