Lenovo ThinkPad P15 Gen 2 review: An old-school mobile workstation

 

The Lenovo ThinkPad P15 is a power user's dream machine when configured with its most powerful components.

Lenovo ThinkPad P15 Gen 2 Review

 

Ferocious CPU and GPU performance ; World's best laptop keyboard ; Plenty of ports ; Ample room for expansion

Extremely expensive ; Bulky and heavy ; 1080p screen is bright but not ultra-colorful

If you have to ask the price, you can't afford it, but Lenovo's ThinkPad P15 Gen 2 smashes into the front rank of mobile workstations with blazing performance.

Lenovo ThinkPad P15 Gen 2 review: A powerhouse 4K mobile workstation

 

The Lenovo ThinkPad P15 Gen 2 laptop is a mobile workstation with plenty of configurations available to suit practically anything you can throw at it.

Solid build quality ; Many configuration options available ; Powerhouse performance ; Plenty of ports including full-sized HDMI ; Nice UHD display options ; Certified for many high-end software packages ; Easy access to add extra storage and upgrade...

Fn and Ctrl keys still swapped ; Heavy ; Can be pricey ; 720p camera still ; Not much bass in the speakers ; Might be waiting a few months for your unit to ship

The Lenovo ThinkPad P15 Gen 2 is an excellent choice for business professionals working with intensive applications like CAD or graphics programs. With more affordable configurations, it is also a great system for students, engineers, and other...

Review: The ThinkPad P15 (Gen 2) needs a design change to keep it relevant

 

The ThinkPad P15 (Gen 2) gets a hardware refresh, but some of its features — including display, camera, and chassis size — are looking outdated in the modern workstation market.

Tons of performance overhead ; Durable build with MIL-STD 810G certification ; Comfortable keyboard, loud audio ; Space inside for heavy upgrades ; ISV certifications for major software

Chunky design looks outdated ; Thick display bezel ; Expensive ; Fans run loud, some throttling under load ; 720p camera

Bottom line: The ThinkPad P15 (Gen 2) is big in every way. It will appeal to professionals who need plenty of overhead performance and space inside for hardware upgrades, but it fails in a few ways to keep up with the modern workstation market.

Lenovo ThinkPad P15 Gen 2 review – a proper mobile workstation

 

Once again we are delving into the realm of mobile workstations. However, today we're not going to look at some finicky thin and light machine, that claims it can handle your heavy workloads …

Up to 128GB of RAM and 6TB of storage;Very good thermals;IPS panel with 533 nits of max brightness (BOE NV156FHM-N65 (LEN4182));No PWM (BOE NV156FHM-N65 (LEN4182));91% of sRGB coverage and accurate colors with our Gaming and Web design profile (BOE...

Thick and heavy;Quite pricy;Could use a better cooling

Lenovo had only one job when making this device. They threw away everything about looks and focused on performance and versatility. Ultimately, the ThinkPad P15 Gen 2 offers configuration freedom similar to some desktop machines. Yes, you won’t be able...
