One notable issue mentioned is lack of S3 sleep. Here's Lenovo's response: "Lenovo, like many OEMs, has transitioned to Modern Standby (S0/S2Idle), which unfortunately can result in significant battery drain during suspend, especially on Linux systems."
Community Reviews
This ThinkPad P14s Gen 6 stands out for its unusually large 96GB of RAM and 2TB SSD, making it appealing for AI, video editing, and other memory hungry workloads. The USB C charging and classic ThinkPad keyboard design add practical appeal, and the AMD model keeps the easier keyboard swap approach. Battery life is the main concern, with the 57Wh pack described as modest and Modern Standby raising suspend drain worries on Linux. Coil whine has also been reported, and the plastic shell feels less durable than expected, so it suits buyers who value memory over battery and build heft.
AI developers running local models, because 96GB of RAM can support memory-heavy workflows and large code or data analysis tasks.
Traveling professionals who need USB-C charging, because the laptop can run for hours on battery and accept a power bank backup.
ThinkPad fans who want easy keyboard serviceability, because the classic chassis lets the keyboard be swapped without taking the whole laptop apart.
Graphics and 3D creators needing a discrete GPU, because this configuration has no dedicated graphics card.
Buyers who need long unplugged runtime from a 57Wh battery, because heavy workloads may only last about 5 to 8 hours and some reports call the battery abysmal.
Linux laptop users who suspend often, because Modern Standby can cause significant battery drain instead of S3 sleep.
People who want a rugged-feeling chassis, because the outer plastic shell can feel too flimsy to keep.

Purchasing through the link in this deal (perksoffer) price is now 1,539
Using the normal Lenovo site you can use the LENOVOPOWER8 code and get it to 1,559, possibly not invalidating the 500 off 1000 capital one offer since the capital one shopping extension applies this code.

I believe it's the former?
Is the $500 of $1000 offer from the credit card (exclusive for Capital One card holders), or from the Capital One Shopping browser extension?
I believe it's the former?
I wonder if any of the codes applied by the Capital One Shopping extension would invalidate offers from Capital One Offers website?
it depends on what you use it for, if you do any video editing at all, adobe will eat all the rams out there.
I have one from that deal. No coil whine. Didn't see much of an issue with the battery. Played some movies in full screen for 6 hours straight. Battery was at 30% after that. It charges via USB-C, so you can always take a power bank as a backup if you expect to be on the move without access to AC power.

People are complaining about the batteries because the Intel version of P14s has a larger battery. Many people fail to realize that the P14s (Intel) and P14s (AMD) are actually completely different machines with different chassis designs. The Intel version boasts a more modern design that allows for a larger battery, but this comes at the cost of repairability (You have to take the entire laptop apart just to replace the keyboard). On the other hand, the AMD version retains the classic ThinkPad design where you can simply swap out the keyboard without having to take the whole thing apart and it features plastic chassis with a magnesium frame inside, similar to older ThinkPads, so there's really no space for a larger battery despite both laptops having a 14" size.
