Lenovo ThinkPad P Series - tech for the speed freak

Do you work with graphics-intensive modelling applications, huge data streams or complex analytical tools?

Then you know that power is everything.

The ThinkPad P Series gives you as much power as you want – optimised hardware resources with Performance Tuner, IVS certification for software and PC compatibility, and a top-level basic warranty.

“Toyota Gazoo Racing Baltics operator Arūnas Kisielius chooses the powerful Lenovo ThinkPad P16

  • 12th generation Intel® Core™ HX processor and NVIDIA RTX™ graphics card for maximum productivity
  • Up to 8TB of SSD capacity and 128GB of DDR5 memory to handle all applications
  • From high-definition FHD+ IPS to UHD+ OLED with DisplayHDR™ 500 True Black to bring out even the smallest nuances in colour
  • 16:10 diagonal display for a more immersive experience
  • dTPM data encryption module, biometric authentication and self-healing BIOS function for safer use

Filming the Dakar is no less challenging than the race itself, so Arūnas Kisielius protects the footage he gathers like his own eyes. The haul for 2020 is almost 2TB of footage, which, after months of editing, has been turned into a full-length documentary. This year, a Lenovo ThinkPad P16 will come to the cameraman’s rescue in Dakar, allowing him to preserve and process even more unique moments. With a rendering speed twice as fast as the three-year-old ThinkPad P53 that Arūnas previously used, Arūnas is expected to get at least two hours more sleep in the Dakar, which is a lot in the world’s toughest race.
