1st Review of the New Lenovo ThinkPad P50
Просмотров 42 тыс.8 лет назад
This is my first review of the Lenovo ThinkPad P50 that just arrived 2 days ago. Please post all comments and questions to my blog on Nani.Today at: www.nani.today/?p=7656 I believe this is the first review of a productin version of the P50 on youtube. And in this video, I compare the P50 to something familiar, the W540. Several areas are a improvement over the W540: - Track Pad: The track pad ...

    Recently my Lenovo P50 Laptop suddenly won't turn on. It turns on for only 1second, with the green power button and keyboard lighting up for 1 second, then it immediately shuts down. When I plug in the power supply, the green light on the back of the computer lights up when I have the battery installed. So it doesn't seem to be a power supply issue. I searched all over the web for solutions & tried doing power drains, unplugging/ plugging in the battery & power supply, running with just the power supply, running it with just the battery, & both battery & power supply. I did the CMOS battery resets, removing HD & ram then trying to powering it on, but I get the same result. Have u ever dealt with anything like this with any Lenovo laptops you've worked on? Do u have any possible solutions? Please let me know. Thanks & have a nice day.

    Great comparision I just wish you compared them both with them running the same OS (i notice the W540 running Windows 7 and P50 running Windows 10 and i think that might affect performance).

As soon as you open back cover you see all (two) slots for the RAM are available (since machine has 2 slots under the keyboard - factory installed RAM used those slots which was very smart idea imo). Same thing with SSD/HDD._*

    I bought the P50 with a 256 SSD as the main drive, instead of the HD, with the intent of just changing out to my 1TB 940 Samsung SSD with all the installed SSD parts , but I now see drive one is stuck with the M2 style of SSD for the main drive. I read that one can install a 2.5 inch as one of the drives. 1. Does adding the 1TB SSD drive in the 2.5 inch drive require parts? 2. I got the reinstall disks, and was planning on just reinstalling the system, just as I had on a W520. Any reason to use the Migration software? Thank you very much for the video. I know this can be tricky, and want to be sure I do it right. Thanks!

  • @DanielRodriguez-fg5ll

    I just mine, I went for the Xeon version; and somehow in my use (often extensive video rendering which uses CPU and GPU) I have almost never have the CPU running lower than 3Ghz. I could guess maybe you had the laptop in balanced mode instead of performance; or maybe the Xeon runs more effcient than the i7. I think I see your point of the no need for the colorimeter; but now that I have it, I cannot live without it. somehow the screen asks to be calibrated every week and once I do I can tell the difference. I dont know if it a weakness

  • @DanielRodriguez-fg5ll
    @DanielRodriguez-fg5ll 8 лет назад

    I am confused why you returned the M2 PCIE version you got by mistake. I have that one, and I get 2.4k for read, 1.6k write (so about 5 times faster than your SATA SSD). you could have just bought the cable or enclosure, the PCIE NMVE is light years ahead tech that your SSD. I am happy for you, you saved money, but I think it was most that given that Lenovo make a mistake, you could return and happened to face a lower price in the website, but the swaping the unit because they gave you a better disk, is a head scratching for me. just my humble opinion.your videos will be very useful for me as I get my P50 as I want it.

  • @DanielRodriguez-fg5ll
    @DanielRodriguez-fg5ll 8 лет назад

    the video is useful as I just got my P50 with only the M2.PCI NMVe drive and I want a 1TB spinning just as data dump or it money allows a SSD. do you know if Lenovo sells the kind of plastic caddy that the HDD had? do you know if a similar caddy is needed for a M2? the space looks quite empty I am sure the M2 will be loose if I just put it there?

    What a dumbass. You should have bought a NVMe SSD and kept the existing drive as well. Now you have a slow SSD and you can't use the existing drive it came with.

    • @MarcusYangNilsson
      @MarcusYangNilsson 6 лет назад

      If your work is not very disk-intensive, then it won't be a big difference in time efficiency vs the cost benefit. SATA III SSD is still 5 times faster than the mechanical ones.

  • @jeroenritmeester73

    I do not understand how even in 2016 a laptop can be so heavy, so huge and so poorly designed. My university sponsors this one for me so I only pay half, but it is so bulky and old-looking. Personally not at all a fan of a tracking point and the second set of mouse buttons, the word "ThinkPad" in an angle in the corner just completely ruins the look of it. Rounded keys, stuffed with pictograms, cheap looking plastic. Come on Lenovo, I know the inside matters more than the outside, but this is just not good looking at all.

    • @AllNightDayDream
      @AllNightDayDream 8 лет назад

      The thinkpads are not meant to cater at all to those who want ultra-modern "slim & sexy" looking laptops due to the compromise that brings. These laptops are built for durability and performance. Also, most people seem to agree the keyboard is one of the best out there. Try writing a long-form piece on this vs the super thing chiclet keyboards and you'll see the design is not poor at all.

      Longevity. Want your quad core processors for financial modelling, rendering, running proprietary programs, you got to keep the heat down, and concentrate on running faster. These are desktop replacements for performance, not built for portability (or cool). Yes I can get an i7 processor in a slim and light form (Dell XPS) but I need to use the thing all day, every day, running CPU intensive tasks. And I want to be able to upgrade RAM and drives in the future.

    • @DanielRodriguez-fg5ll
      @DanielRodriguez-fg5ll 8 лет назад

      I don't get it. if you set it as 200% magnification as the OS would recommend, it is almost the same as 1920x1080 but with sharper text. were you joking?

  • @DanielRodriguez-fg5ll
    @DanielRodriguez-fg5ll 8 лет назад

    thanks for the video. but actually, you argue extensively about how cooler it runs the P50, but when you show the task manager, CPU speed is only 2.6, so the machine is not using the turbo. the 6820 should turbo all the way to 3.6, which it means either thermal throttle or power throttle. that is a bummer if it gets confirmed. it is like buying a 35watts CPU for the price of a 45watts.

    @petermarkey4694 8 лет назад

    getting the run around with Lenovo. before buying i am trying to figure out if this thing will support 2 2.5" drives. the hardware maintenance manual seems to look like it does. I even found 2 different hard drive cables, one for slot 3 and one for slot 4. but one is sold out that is $23 and one is available but for $127.

    • @petermarkey4694
      @petermarkey4694 8 лет назад

      +Peter Markey around 7:50 in your movie you can see the connector for the 2nd HDD cable. but wonder if you can order the 2nd drive caddy. sales just tells me 2 2.5" drives is not supported.

      the P50 takes up to three disks, two in M2 format, one in 2.5 inches. the M2 can be SATA or PCI NMve. my gues for all of them you need some sort of caddy or enclosure to hold the drive in the space the computer has.

    Yes! that would be great if the system came with the required cable in you video. When I picked the M.2 type drive and paid extra for the upgrade, It didn't tell me that the 2.5" proprietary cable was required now as it would have just been included without the upgrade, This would now need to be ordered. Which you cannot even order from IBM Spare parts, or Lenovo.. and even if you could the price has been dramatically increased! Shame on you guys at Lenovo.. Very disappointed!
