Does it support per-user systemd services?

I approve.

Sad.

No, you?

It’s flawless. Tried Fedora 40 live image and I think the iGPU wasn’t recognized because Gnome felt sluggish and there was no animations. Fedora 41 obviously has a more recent kernel and everything worked just fine.

I did consider Framework, but I decided to go with ThinkPad for the trackpoint, keyboard, and build quality.

This isn’t my first AMD laptop. I prefer AMD for the iGPU. Although Intel is now catching up in that aspect. So for current gen CPUs I don’t really have a strong preference. If the T14s gen 6 was available with Intel CPU I would’ve gone with that for the slightly better iGPU.

P1 gen 7 uses CAMM2 if I’m not mistaken. T14 gen 5 (but not T14s) uses SODIMM so I suppose it’s possible gen 6 will switch to CAMM2.

I would say the T14s gen 4 is a better investment if you’re on a budget. It can be had for almost half the price of the Gen 6.

Under Linux (Kernel 6.11.8), everything works flawlessly out of the box. The only issue I noticed is that the fan runs constantly. The CPU temp could be as low as 36 degrees and the fan would still be running at 2400 RPM. It’s not loud or anything though. Not sure if this is related to the Platform Profile in the kernel, or it’s a bios issue. Either way, I hope it gets fixed eventually.

I ran some benchmarks to check the performance and the CPU wattage. In Cinebnech R23 10 mins run I got 10935. Temp at the end of the 10 mins run was 73. So I suspected it wasn’t pushing as hard as it could then I found a “smart cooling” setting in the bios. After disabling that I got around 1200. Could still be better because the CPU temp was the same in the end.

CPU package power as reported by hwinfo64, settles at 22w after around 4 minutes. Before that it stays between 26-28 watt with CPU temp in the mid 80’s. Then it settles at 22 watt (with CPU temp at 73 degrees). So it seems to be that the cooling system is capable of running this at at least 25w sustained. I’m hoping a bios update down the line will take advantage of the thermal headroom.

Only the WAN card and the NVME. RAM and Wifi are not upgradable.

Build quality seems to be very good. On par with my last X1 Carbon Gen 9.

I’m liking it very much so far, so I’m afraid not.

Couldn’t find a 4 digit number on the back. But the part number on Lenovo’s website is 21M1001WUS. No, it doesn’t have a swappable battery. As far as I know, there hasn’t been any model with a swappable battery for many years now.

Hell yeah, brother. Not at good as the 890m but it actually seems to be very close. Judging by some benchmarks I’ve seen on Youtube, it’s only around 5% slower than the 890m, at least at this wattage.

LOL. I use Linux so it’s pretty useless to me. At least they didn’t remove the right control key to make room for it like they did in the new X1 Carbon! I’ll probably find a good use for it by mapping it to some shortcut or modifier.

CPU is AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 360. It’s too early to form an opinion about battery life, but so far it seems promising. As we speak the battery life is 67% and it shows 7 hours remaining. This is on Linux mind you, and I’m not doing anything heavy. Will report back tomorrow.

1980x1200. Yes it’s 16:10. It’s 60hz only if you’re wondering. I like the screen. Colors are vibrant and blacks are deep.

No, not without opening up the laptop.

Yes. Will be running Fedora Silverblue 41.
