AMD Ryzen 7 Pro 4750U, Ryzen 5 Pro 4650U, and Ryzen 3 Pro 4450U now official and set to debut on the Lenovo ThinkPad T14, T14s, X13, and more

Business laptops sporting AMD Ryzen Pro CPUs have always been hard to come by and even when they appear, most are of the budget variety. The new Zen 2 Ryzen PRO 4000U series is looking to change that by offering much faster performance than before on higher-end laptop models.

What about 4850U and 4950U?

No 35/45W CPUs as well for Thinkpads. Shame, you would think their primary goal was to sell their products.

No reason for that - there are plenty of Core i-equipped Thinkpads without vPro, so they could just use regular H-series APUs for that type of performance. 45W Ryzen Pro is unlikely simply due to the small size of such a market.

Those mentioning H series CPUs.. Remember manafacturers are free to adjust powerlimits to what they want. A U series Ryzen CPU will perform the same as an H series CPU at equivalent power limits. The only difference is the H letter.
I'd prefer to have a 4750U at 25w power limit.

Dude, Thinkpad T and X series always have U series CPUs. These 2 series are targeting the business market. Battery life, durability and weight are the most important aspects in this market while performance is way back.

If you are looking for high-performance laptops, then you are looking at the wrong lineup. Thinkpad P series is the workstation lineup and Legion series is the gaming lineup. Not every laptop has to be high-performance.

True, but there's a significant difference between 25W and 45W. And no OEM is going to make a laptop with an U-sereies APU configured to 45W (if AMD would even let them) - it would be impossible to market and sell.

Still, everything presented here is either budget or thin and light, so U-series is the right choice. I just hope the T14s or X13 come with 25W configured chips (and preferably decent FreeSync screens).
