Lenovo ThinkPad L15 Gen 4 im Test: Flüsterleiser Ryzen-Laptop mit langen Laufzeiten

[Redaktion]

Das Business-Notebook aus dem Hause Lenovo produziert wenig Lärm und Wärme, bietet lange Akkulaufzeiten und hat ein LTE-Modem an Bord. Eine Ryzen-7-APU stellt viel Rechenleistung bereit. Positiv: Das Notebook verfügt über zwei RAM-Slots. Die Preise beginnen bei etwa 770 Euro.

1024 MB VRAM,

This is some kind of technical nonsense in the product description - there is no dedicated VRAM, there is a built-in video card in the SoC, which shares the extremely slow DDR4 3200 (and even in a slow single-channel mode, if you don't immediately buy a second memory module of the same kind, which further increases price, albeit not much) with the OS and other laptop devices. This is the Achilles' heel of all integrated x86 video cards.

It's completely incomprehensible to me how the author intended the banal IPS 1700:1+ - it's physically impossible.

In general, I don't understand how the author calculated 87% points for such a shameful laptop, with a lot of shortcomings, even without the typical 3-year warranty, as is usually the case with these series.

L line is the most idiotic Lenovo line. Almost no one in the world buys it at retail (only at times of very significant discounts, for example for students), it is extremely rare in stores and is most often sold in companies for kickbacks to purchasing managers, because It's unlikely that a normal buyer will take this for that kind of money with a disgraceful screen in terms of color rendering at the end of 2023 and with a bunch of other restrictions.

It would be a good workhorse for the price, provided it had a decent 4k@120Hz screen (sub 10ms response on B2W/G2G) with 100% sRGB and indeed if the contrast matched the review figures. Which gave a high-quality picture in the text, at least. With normal 2 x M.2 2280 and with 7840HS + 2 DDR5 5600 slots (or 32GB LPDDR5 7500 soldered directly on the board) for the end of 2023 and of course 2 USB40 ports, which are built into the 40 series Zen4 AMD.

But this is a relic from the past, with an insignificant guarantee and an inflated price, at least 400 euros, relative to the installed hardware. Moreover, this series is not even reliable enough to be constantly carried around like the T series, although it has significantly degraded over the past 10 years.

Thank you for your attention.
