Pros and Cons

Lenovo ThinkPad T15p Gen 3

Strengths

The laptop was well-packed with heavy-duty foam, which is good.
The accessory box comes with a power cable that goes from the AC plug to the power block and a USB-C reversible port
The laptop has a spacious interior with a big pouch for accessories
The safety information and user manual are included in the package
The screen protector is great and easy to remove
The processor is a 12th generation Intel Core i7, which can be overclocked up to 4.80 GHz
Upgrading the memory and SSD drive is easy and straightforward

Weaknesses

There's very little accessory for the price, which could have been better
The power block is a bit basic with only one USB-C reversible port
The user manual is small and seems to be intended for the big pouch
The SIM card slot is protected by a plastic cover but not easily accessible
There's no LED indicator on the power connection port, which could be useful
The laptop comes with only 512 GB SSD drive, which might not be enough for some users
The HDMI and USB ports are located at the right side of the laptop, which might be a bit inconvenient

MSI GS66 Stealth

Strengths

The GS66 Stealth is a sleek and stealthy design.
The performance is solid for the size, especially with AMD options available.
A great display is offered with the option to upgrade to a 300Hz panel (though not necessarily needed).
Gaming performance was really good with the RTX 2070 Super, able to match an RTX 2080 non-super in frame rates.
The fast NVMe SSD helps a lot with compression tasks and loading games quickly.

Weaknesses

The plastic rail on the edge of the laptop feels cheap and is not a unibody design.
The keyboard backlighting is not the greatest, especially compared to the competition.
The speakers sound terrible and the microphone quality is trash.
The laptop is excessively loud during gaming scenarios.
A 300Hz display may be overkill for most gamers, who would be perfectly fine with a 240Hz or even 144Hz display.
