ThinkPad P50: a workhorse for creatives

Traditionally, a workstation meant a hellishly powerful PC housed in a heavy metal box, with loud fans and a lot of heat coming out. Almost like a server.
Mobile workstations have been around for a few years now. The infernal machines were crammed into laptop cases, a little thicker, a little bigger, and a lot more powerful than regular laptops.
Well, the ThinkPad P50 is one of them. For those familiar with the ThinkPad phenomenon, Lenovo's mobile workstations were called the W until recently. Now they're called the P... but who cares?
Under no circumstances should an architect, designer, photographer, or creative be interested in a laptop that can do their job even when they are at a client's, in the field, or in the mountains.
Because that's what the P50 actually knows how to do: give its owner some extra hours of sleep, beer, family, or anything other than work.
How does it do that? The ThinkPad P50 is a mobile workstation with premium features (some of them optional) that you'll hardly find in other devices.
Among them:

  • the ability to choose a 4K screen (on a 15-inch laptop, how about that?)
  • the same screen with an Adobe RGB color gamut that covers the 99% spectrum
  • Stylus
  • touch screen
  • thickness of only 29.5 mm
  • relaxed graphics power with any design applications, whether we're talking about Autodesk, AutoCad, Chief Architect, Corel PaintShop, PhotoStudio, VideoStudio, Pinnacle or MoviePlus. It all happens thanks to the professional graphics cards from the nVidia Quadro range.
  • Intel Xeon processors.

Here is a gaming sample on a model equipped with only an i7 processor:
