日本Lenovo ThinkPad P1 Gen 5 – Top 5 Pros and Cons
The P1 mobile workstation from Lenovo is one of the thinnest laptops with a good amount of power and quality features that you can get your hands on.
It comes with very potent hardware, our model featuring a Core i7-12700H and an RTX A1000 Studio-grade graphics card. Combine that with a tall 16:10 display and a sizeable battery, you’ve got a device that can do professional work undisturbed, regardless of if you’re plugged into a wall or not.
Today we present you with LaptopMedia’s top 5 picks about the Lenovo ThinkPad P1 Gen 5.
Lenovo ThinkPad P1 Gen 5: Full Specs / In-depth Review
4 reasons to BUY the Lenovo ThinkPad P1 Gen 5
1. Upgradeability
Starting off, you want to keep your laptop performing well, and some of that comes down to introducing more resources, like RAM and storage. For that reason, the P1 offers two SODIMM slots for DDR5 memory and two M.2 slots for Gen 4 SSDs. The SSD slots also have RAID support.
Here is our detailed teardown video, which shows how to access both the RAM and SSD slots.
2. Battery life
With a 90Wh battery pack, we see the ThinkPad deliver 14 hours and 48 minutes of Web browsing, or 10 hours and 36 minutes of video playback. Now, we conduct the battery tests with the Windows Better performance setting turned on, screen brightness adjusted to 120 nits, and all other programs turned off except for the one we are testing the notebook with.
3. Display quality
There are three display options, which you can see in our full review. We tested the FHD+ IPS panel which comes with excellent viewing angles and a peak brightness of 346 nits. The contrast ratio is very high at 1800:1. It covers 92% of the sRGB gamut, which is enough for most types of web-based color work.
The color accuracy is fantastic as well, once we apply our Design and Gaming profile, lowering the dE value to 1.3. Here are the results of our test, with both the stock settings (left) and with our profile applied (right).

Health-Guard
Health-Guard elimineert de schadelijke Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) en vermindert het negatieve Blauwe Licht dat onze ogen en ons lichaam aantast. Omdat het op maat is gemaakt voor elk paneel, slaagt het erin de kleuren perceptueel nauwkeurig te houden. Health-Guard simuleert papier zodat de druk op de ogen sterk wordt verminderd.

1 reason NOT to buy the Lenovo ThinkPad P1 Gen 5
1. The Price
Currently, on Lenovo’s website, the ThinkPad P1 Gen 5 is listed at a price of $2,174.42. Considering that this is for the base variant with a Core i7-12700H and the RTX A1000, we feel like you’re really paying more than what you’re actually getting, purely in terms of performance. Then again, if you also value the upgradeability, populated I/O, and battery, while also having the cache to spend, there’s nothing wrong in going for the ThinkPad P1.
