I am staying with low-ish powered laptops and offloading heavy computation to remote servers. It helps that I don’t do much graphics or gaming though.

Same, part of why I picked an X1 gen 9 over the 10 (if I remember correctly) was that the difference in chip mainly affected battery life with only marginal improvements to performance with the newer chip.

I already kinda do this with my current machine. When I get to work I plug the P1 into my dock and it stays there until I go home. If I need to access my computer from elsewhere I have a second laptop that I use to remote into the P1 to do stuff. My only qualm is my light laptop (T14s gen 2) doesn’t do dual 4k displays at 60hz with my dock. Also remote desktop always just kinda sucks compared to actually being at the computer.

And I like the good GPU for the few times a year I’m traveling and want to play a game. I just wish they’d make an AMD version of this laptop that’s actually capable of battery life. I’ve gotten as bad as less than 30 minutes of charge on this device.

LPCAMM2 memory is very exciting

I have a P1 gen 4 and I’m looking to upgrade, but the gen 7 is kind of a downgrade in many ways over the gen 6. The GPU is capped at the 4070 while the gen 6 went up to the 4090 mobile. Overall it’s a smaller footprint, and the cooling solution appears to be smaller so it’s probably not going to perform as well as the outgoing model.

I’m also not necessarily looking forward to the aluminum chassis, and really don’t like the notch. If it had Thunderbolt 5 I’d probably get it, but for now I’ll hold off until gen 8? This 11th gen CPU is awful and I can’t wait to get rid of it.
