>although it most likely won't have Thunderbolt 3 like the Intel version
You know they can just add in the TB3 controller, it's not Intel specific

Aren't A model thinkpads professional/business range?

>>61743012
Yes, so expect decent build quality, a good NIC, more than 1 port and an actual battery instead of a breadknife ultrameme

I tried to like the >xx30 generation but its hard. Its all the little things like the shitty hinge mounting points and the lack of ThinkLight.

How do you know it's raven ridge?

Finally, I held off on the purchase of my new thinkpad for this. No more paying hundreds for a few extra megahertz.

XX5 Thinkpads have all been AMD models.

>>61743012
A series haven't been around since IBM, it's probably a new A series because the XX5 indicates that they're AMD powered and they have the same model numbers as the T470 and X270.

But it could be regular Ryzen/ryzen pro with a dedicated GPU

Wouldn't make any sense as it would kill battery life. It will be a CPU with IGP. Either disappointingly bristol ridge, or raven ridge.

AMD said mobile products with raven ridge would ship in Q4, so its a possibility.
