No specific cons listed for this device

Lenovo ThinkPad P16s Gen 1

Strengths

Plenty of materials and combinations depending on which color you choose
Full-sized spill-resistant backlit keyboard offers an amazing typing experience
Front-firing speaker setup delivers quality audio with no major deviations across the frequency range
Alder Lake P-Series CPUs can still deliver plenty of performance with the 12-core Intel Core i5 1240p
Quadro T550 running at 30 watts is certainly better than the Intel iGPU solution

Weaknesses

Much less powerful Alder Lake P-Series chips compared to the traditional Lenovo ThinkPad p16 generation one
P16s isn't an efficiency champ as the 52.5 Watt hours battery pack lasts for only 7 hours and 15 minutes of web browsing or 6 hours and 9 Minutes of video playback
Performance is closely tied to the cooling, which can lead to more noise and compromised performance
The high price isn't backed up properly with the P16s Gen 1 as there are other business machines out there that deliver more performance for less
Display has only 51 srgb coverage making it not suitable for professional work with colors
