This Lenovo laptop is still nearly 50% off, and I highly recommend it

Right now, Lenovo is slashing prices for many of its laptops. This includes the sixth-generation ThinkPad T14s, a great computer I tested in February. Sadly, my configuration is no longer available for sale (although the company is planning on restocking).

Fortunately, there are other versions that I would highly recommend. One such model is the Snapdragon X Plus model of the ThinkPad T14s.

For a limited time, the ThinkPad T14s with the Snapdragon X Plus hardware is retailing for about $1,197, a massive 47% discount. This computer usually costs $2,259. You can also purchase a better-performing configuration housing the Snapdragon X Elite chipset for roughly $1,446, which is also 47% off.

If you have the cash to spend, Lenovo has another version of the ThinkPad T14s running on an Intel Core Ultra 7 268V vPro chipset for $2,066. That is a 16% discount on its original price. It’s not as steep as the others, but it is still worth consideration.

I’m bringing up this deal because the ThinkPad T14s is ZDNET’s pick for the best Lenovo laptop of 2025. It combines the classic ThinkPad design with a series of features that help it be future-proof.

Review: Lenovo ThinkPad T14s

It sports a lightweight chassis, a comfortable keyboard, plus a wide selection of ports for your accessories. These include a pair of Thunderbolt 4 ports, an HDMI input for connecting to an external display, and a headphone jack. Support for Wi-Fi 7 allows users to experience next-gen wireless speeds.

I don’t know how well the Snapdragon or Intel Core models perform, as my review unit had an AMD processor, but I am familiar with the other two processors. So, I can say with total confidence that you will be able to enjoy top-notch performance from them, namely from the Intel Core Ultra 7 268V, the higher-end chip.

The Snapdragon X processor may not be able to compete on the same level. But what it lacks in power, it makes up for in longevity, as the hardware is energy-efficient.
