1245u is 2 years newer than the Ryzen 4650u and smokes it in performance... https://www.cpu-monkey.com/en/com...e_i5_1245u

Community Reviews

This refurbished ThinkPad T14 is a compact Linux friendly business laptop with a Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U, 16GB of memory, and an upgradeable SSD. The chassis is light at roughly 3.22 to 3.41 pounds, and the memory and wireless card appear replaceable, which helps for future upgrades. The main tradeoffs are the non touch display and likely modest 250 nit panel, with battery life also called out as weaker than a comparable Intel model. A practical secondary machine if you value repairability and low cost over a brighter screen.

  • Linux users who want a ThinkPad T14 for a secondary machine because commenters say it's good for Linux and that the SSD looks upgradeable (with only one RAM stick likely soldered and the other replaceable).

  • Tinkerers who want to upgrade storage and possibly RAM because commenters say the SSD appears upgradeable and they expect there may be a spare RAM slot if 16GB isn't fully soldered, plus they plan to swap in their own NVMe drives.

  • People planning to run FreeBSD on a secondary laptop because one commenter said driver support and cost are their priorities and they expect the AMD model to fit those needs better than an Intel option.

  • Buyers who don't mind checking/confirming exact configuration details (battery, display, backlit keyboard) because commenters note ThinkPads have many options and that the specific unit details could make or break the decision.

    mooch91

  • Buyers who assume Thunderbolt is Intel-only because commenters push back that Ryzen systems can also have Thunderbolt (though less commonly), so you can't treat it as guaranteed or exclusive based on CPU alone.

  • Buyers who care about battery life a lot because one commenter said their AMD ThinkPad had poor battery life compared to an Intel P14s Gen 5 they later bought.

    mooch91

  • People who specifically want a touchscreen laptop because commenters point out the unit is non-touch and that this matters to some buyers once they realize it's missing.

    p3dal

  • Buyers who need a bright, high-tier display because commenters flag the screen as the main potential downside and suspect it will be the 250-nit "blah" option rather than the 400-nit low-power variant.

Is this a good deal for a linux laptop? Research suggests only one RAM stick is soldered and the other is replaceable. SSD also seems to be upgradeable.

Ryzen systems can have thunderbolt too. It's not as common, but it's not exclusive to Intel.

Non-touch screen, for those that care. I always get excited about a steal of a laptop before realizing it's missing.

Totally. Smilie

I'm in for one. I might regret it vs the Intel model I saw listed but there's a high chance I'll run FreeBSD on this and driver support / cost are my priorities for this system. This is a secondary machine, just needed a good enough laptop that isn't stuck in the Apple garden.

If anyone happens to get an actual model number, or more detailed specs on this unit, before the deal expires, please respond back. Interested to know which battery is in this, specifically which display, if keyboard is backlit, etc. Thinkpads have a lot of options and they could make or break a decision on this deal. I noticed newegg doesn't provide much in the listing, unlike some others they have. Thanks.

Looking for the Lenovo part number. That just brings me to the Newegg site which has the same information.
