Lenovo is continually sinking with terrible choices.

Well clearly something is happening behind the scenes at Lenovo as they distance themselves from AMD with less and less AMD offerings.

AMD can't provide enough SoCs as they promise, AMD ThinkPads come to the market very late, many months after Intel variants, Lenovo gets bad rep and ThinkPad as a brand too for something that's not their fault. Happens for 3.5 years now while Intel is immediately available literally at the same day when they announce it will be available. Good decision Lenovo, especially now when Intel is much more efficient than in their previous gens 👍
