@ Well...I only got to use it for a day before I had to send it back to lenovo for repair. Some issue with windows that I could not seem to fix myself. It was not even possible to format the computer. Windows completely froze. Now its fixed, and on its way back to me again. But I really liked it the day I got to use it. Really wish it was a 16:10 display though. I got the UAE display, wich does have poor response times and a little ghotsing. But colors are good. Overall performane is amazing. REally fast and snappy computer. Very light weight too.

Just want to point out, the SSD in T14s (AMD) is slowed down by Lenovo. My T14s came with 1 TB Western Digital SSD which was meant to give me 3500/3100 (read/write respectively) after reading the specification. Performing several Crystal disk mark tests, I found out that the SSD only gave around 1660/1400 (read/write respectively). 2 other people have also reported the same problem on reddit. This could be the reason why the odd results on importing SQL database.

Another very informative review. Thank you! I just priced out the Thinkpad X13 AMD with this T14s AMD with same specs (AMD Ryzen 7 4750U, 16GB DDR4, 128GB SSD (don't upgrade to the larger hard drive from Lenovo. Buy a Samsung 512GB NVme SSD from Amazon for under $100 and swap it out), 500nits FHD IPS with Privacy Screen, WiFi 6, Backlit Keyboard, Fingerprint Reader and IR/720fps Camera. The T14s priced at $1687 and the X13 came in at $1378. The only difference between the 2 laptops is that the T14s is a touch screen and X13 is not. Oddly the X13 Intel variant does come with a touchscreen option. Too bad the X13 Yoga (same specs as X13 but with touchscreen) only comes in the Intel variant - no AMD.

Great review as always. A request: Could you add some information on Linux compatibility of the laptops you review? That would be very helpful for Linux users like me.

If it helps, switching to 5.8 kernel seems to fix all issues with graphics and sleep that some people had on lower kernels. Yoga Slim 7 runs great on Arch and I don't have any issues (my comments from another thread are related to that setup).

I'm assuming you did specifically enable Hardware Acceleration for encoding (it's in a different spot than for playback/rendering acceleration). If so, it's kinda dissapointing. It seems Intels Quick Sync is used by Premiere much better than AMD during encoding/exporting. Other vids do seem to show Davinci Resolve times being about the same with Ryzen and Intel for exporting so that would be great to see a comparison there. I managed to pick up the Ideapad 5 14 4700u before it went out of stock again but will do 1080p editing at most so it should still be sufficient for that.

Great detailed review. Thank you! Intel will really be hurting as they have virtually nothing better to offer now both on the desktop and notebook side!

Ah balls. This one got me hooked but for now, there isn't much Ryzen 4000 laptops here in Malaysia unfortunately. Was considering to get a new laptop soon. And the only option that I liked was some Asus Vivobook, which was mostly good and probably similar to the Ideapad 5, but lacks configurable RAM.

Suppose in my configuration, onboard memory 8gb ram, optional memory 8 gb. Suddenly my onboard memory will get disturb, so optional or secondary ram will work?

I have two main problems: a huge overheating problem (Yes it performs blazingly fast, but will also throttle hard and run into it’s 105°C thermal limit) and only lasts for 3.5 hours (just browsing). My model: 35.56 cm (14.0") Full-HD IPS matt (1920 x 1080, 400nits), AMD Ryzen™ 7 PRO 4750U OctaCore (1.70 bis 4.1 GHz), 1TB NVMe-SSD, 32GB RAM, AMD Radeon™ RX Vega 7 Grafik shared, IR-Webcam I am really considering to sent this back.
