ThinkPad P series
DeveloperLenovo
TypeLaptop (mobile workstation), Desktop replacement
Release date2015
PredecessorThinkPad W series

The ThinkPad P series laptops is produced by Lenovo and was introduced by the company as a successor to the previous ThinkPad W series. With 15" and 17" screens, the ThinkPad P series saw the reintroduction of physically large laptops into the ThinkPad line. Marketed largely as portable workstations[1], many P series laptops can be configured with high-end quad-core or hexa-core Intel processors[2] as well as ECC memory (only with Xeon CPUs) and a discrete Nvidia Quadro GPU. The P series offers ISV certifications from software vendors such as Adobe and Autodesk for various CAD software[1]. The P52 and P72 models are the last current Lenovo laptops with dedicated magnesium structural frames.

All 15" and 17" models have a modern 6-row ThinkPad Precision Keyboard (with Numeric Keypad and optional backlight), TrackPoint and trackpad, and optional fingerprint reader. The HQ processor-based models (such as a P50/P70 and above) use only 170 W AC power adapters, or optional 230 W adapters with high-end 17" configurations.

First Generation

The first generation comes with a variety of "high-end" options such as Intel Xeon processors, 4K screens and DDR4 RAM up to 64 GB. 1080p screens and Intel Core Series CPUs come standard along with PCIe SSDs. The P Series introduced a cooling system known as FLEX that features two fans connected by a heat pipe and located near the CPU and GPU. A three-button touchpad is included.

P40 Yoga

P40 Yoga is a version of the ThinkPad Yoga 460 with Nvidia Quadro graphics.

P50s

ThinkPad P50s is an update of ThinkPad W550s, focused on mobility. Its chassis is based on that of the T560[5].

P50

The ThinkPad P50, while having a 15-inch display, shared little in design with the W541 which it replaced. Its ports had been re-arranged, it was slightly thinner than its predecessor, and it reintroduced indicator lights for hard drive activity. It supports up to three internal storage devices and has a single USB Type-C Thunderbolt 3 port while also featuring Mini DisplayPort and HDMI connections. Weighing 2.54 kilograms and having thickness of 2.59 centimeters, the P50 was lighter than previous W series laptops[6].
