Pros and cons

According to our laptop expert

Thanks to the fast processor and video card, you can edit videos and industrial designs in software like Premiere Pro and AutoCAD.
The AI NPU and software of this laptop teach you edits, so you can work more efficiently in the future.
Your laptop is well-protected thanks to the TPM 2.0 chip, fingerprint sensor, and facial recognition via Windows Hello.
For game design and 3D animation in demanding 3D software, you need at least an i9, Ultra 9, or Ryzen 9 processor.

Description

With the Lenovo ThinkPad P16s Gen 3 (Intel) - 21KS0004MH 16-inch laptop workstation, you can edit company videos and make small 3D edits and renders. Thanks to the Intel Core Ultra 7 processor, the 32GB DDR5 RAM, and the NVIDIA RTX 500 Ada video card, you can work without problems in medium demanding graphic programs. You can edit a company video or 3D project with a small amount of 3D polygons. You can also easily open multiple programs or dozens of tabs at the same time because of the large RAM. This way, you can easily switch between tasks without slowing down. On the 16-inch screen, you have a good overview of your work and you can easily open 2 windows next to each other. You can enjoy a longer battery life because of the AI chip and the special low power cores in the Intel Core Ultra processor. The TPM 2.0 chip protects your files with an extra layer of security and keeps hackers out.

Our expert recommends this laptop for:

Sending emails and working with Office programs and management systems
Multitasking and switching between a lot of tabs and programs at the same time
Demanding bookkeeping and financial analyses in spreadsheets
Running extra demanding data files in spreadsheets
Demanding web development and programming
Graphic design, UX design, and light 3D designs, without many details or colors

The advantages of Windows Pro

Store files securely with BitLocker.
Use Remote Desktop to connect to another computer in your company remotely.
Update multiple laptops automatically and simultaneously with the latest security updates via the internet.
Use Assigned Access to set up which apps employees are allowed to use.

Still a few issues to tackle

Starts up in no time
Facial recognition and otherwise code
Vulnerable mechanism Ethernet port

The cable didn't seem to fit into the Ethernet port. Later found out that it's a kind of pull-out mechanism. Seems fragile to me, I would rather not have had it. The Fn and Ctrl keys are swapped compared to previous Thinkpads. Now it's the same as with other brands. If you're really going to work with colors, with video or photos, it's less suitable. It's also in the specifications. I only work with documents and watch instructional videos or follow live images of events etc. that's not a problem. The only problem I haven't tackled yet is that a clipboard application usually doesn't want to 'paste', and that the browser sometimes doesn't want to load pages, can't find them, or the entire search doesn't work. I don't know if that's a problem in Windows 11, or in the settings. Other software I installed works just fine. I also couldn't log out of the hosting provider, so it could be Windows 11.

The Ferrari among laptops: lightning fast and indestructible

Speed: The processor performs like a Ferrari; everything works smoothly and instantly.
Build quality: Military-grade ruggedness; extremely durable and can withstand a knock or two.
Keyboard: Legendary typing comfort; unparalleled and ideal for those who write a lot.

The Lenovo ThinkPad P16s is an impressive machine that perfectly combines power and durability. The speed is immediately noticeable; the system responds without any lag.

What truly sets this laptop apart is its build quality. It's good to know that these devices have been tested to military specifications. You can tell; the chassis is much more robust than that of an average consumer laptop, and you can feel that it can withstand a knock or two. It's reassuring to know that the hardware is so durable.

The keyboard, as always, types superbly, and the screen is bright and sharp. For anyone looking for a reliable workstation that will last for years, this is an excellent choice.
