ThinkPad P14s Gen 4 (Intel) 21HF000RUE

The ThinkPad P14s Gen 4 (Intel) represents the perfect balance of performance and portability in the mobile workstation category. This powerful yet compact device delivers professional-grade computing capabilities while maintaining the legendary ThinkPad durability.

Cutting-Edge Performance

At the heart of the ThinkPad P14s Gen 4 lies an Intel® Core™ i7-1360P processor. This 12-core (4P + 8E) / 16-thread CPU operates with impressive speeds:

• P-cores reach up to 5.0GHz (base 2.2GHz)
• E-cores reach up to 3.7GHz (base 1.6GHz)
• 18MB cache for responsive multitasking

The ThinkPad P14s Gen 4 pairs this processing power with professional NVIDIA® RTX A500 graphics featuring 4GB GDDR6 memory. As a result, this workstation handles complex visual workloads with ease.

Memory and Storage Architecture

Memory management on the ThinkPad P14s Gen 4 utilizes soldered 16GB LPDDR5x-7500 Non-ECC memory. Although this configuration means the memory cannot be upgraded, it offers several advantages:

• Dual-channel architecture maximizes bandwidth
• High-speed 7500MHz rating (running at 4800 MT/s due to platform limitations)
• Efficient power consumption

Storage capabilities are equally impressive with a 512GB M.2 2280 PCIe® 4.0×4 Performance NVMe® SSD featuring Opal 2.0 encryption. Moreover, the single M.2 slot supports upgrades up to 2TB, providing flexibility for expanding storage needs.

Display and Design Quality

The ThinkPad P14s Gen 4 features a 14″ WUXGA (1920×1200) IPS display with anti-glare coating and 300 nits brightness. While the 45% NTSC color gamut is sufficient for standard business applications, creative professionals may notice limitations in color-critical work.

Furthermore, the Villi Black case combines durability with lightweight design:

• Top cover: PC + 20% CF + 50% GF composite material
• Bottom cover: Aluminum for improved heat dissipation
• Weight starting at just 1.34 kg (2.97 lbs)
• Compact dimensions: 317.7 x 226.9 x 17.95 mm
