The fact is, you informed your readers with erroneous public-avaible specs, whereas your should have dig into that (even if it implies loss of views) you've been played here ;)

Was planing to upgrade our whole company (80+ workstations) with Thunderbolt 3 enabled Ryzen 4000 Thinkpads. Also with eGPU boxes for our mechanical engineering with desktop Quadro GPUs. Very unfortunate. Now one has to choose a CPU with ancient 14nm process which will cause the housing to melt after 0.01ms on turboboost to have Thunderbolt 3 enabled.

What a shame, I was planning to buy a Ryzen T14 and a Legion BoostStation so that I could use it for work and gaming, and forget about having a desktop altogether, after all it's much easier to move around with a laptop, a mouse, an eGPU enclosure and headphones than a laptop, 2.1 speakers, screen, tower, keyboard and one or two mice.

Same here. Was hoping to get a Ryzen 4000 laptop with Thunderbolt 3 to use with my eGPU. Guess Lenovo is off my list to look out for.

It's mostly just professionals and their expensive high-performance TB3 docking stations. Those are the kind of people willing to pay a premium for the better version of much cheaper alternatives -- you know, just the *effin* people that would even buy these 1000€+ AMD Thinkpads. So... "no biggie".

I don't, even though my laptop has TB3.

Really? Still 16:9 screen? Wdf is wrong with you lenovo? I will never buy 16:9 trash

@A, the keyboard layout on the 14" Thinkpads has been the same for a while, now.

While lack of thunderbolt is a bit upsetting, it isn't a big deal overall. I am more annoyed by the keyboard layout. The small arrow keys and poorly placed page up and page down makes it a deal breaker.

While it's true that Thunderbolt wasn't really available on AMD systems in the past, that hasn't been the case for a while. After all, there are desktop motherboards which feature TB3 AFAIK. What they typically lack is Thunderbolt certification from Intel. But they have the hardware. I believe it was with TB3 that Intel opened up. At any rate, it's a temporary problem. USB4 should essentially be re-branded TB3.

NOOOO!!! C'mon Lenovo!

Lenovo's 16:9 screen ratio is useless for professional use anyway.

my biggest concern was screen options.
they say 400 nit low power and 500 nit, which im fine with. no data about color range tho. typical hidden parameters from a manufacturer.
