Pros and Cons

Lenovo ThinkPad T14s Gen 6

Strengths

The New t14s Gen 6 with the ryzen AI chip as usual a solid release from Lenovo keeping the T14 series relevant being Slimmer than the standard T14 yet providing similar levels of performance with these new AI chips but finally we're seeing decent battery life again which was my biggest criticism of the T14 Gen 5 reviewed recently
The power profiles in the t14s are linked in with the windows power profiles and using geekbench 6 again we can see there's quite a difference between the three profiles
This laptop is capable of some light gaming and we tested Dota 2 to show the power budgets over time
the battery life on this model was pretty impressive running our usual battery tests streaming YouTube over wi-fi at 200 nits of brightness we managed 11 hours and 20 minutes of battery life
