The Lenovo ThinkPad T14 is very good for general use, while the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga is good.
The Lenovo ThinkPad T14 boasts a strong CPU and ample RAM, ensuring smooth multitasking and performance for general use, coupled with a quality screen and robust battery life; however, its portability is slightly compromised compared to the svelte Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga, which offers similar screen clarity and performance in a thinner and lighter form, but with a potential tradeoff in overall battery endurance.

Benjamin Herzig | December 2023
"We like a lot about this laptop. It has many ports, with the inclusion of RJ45-Ethernet as a defining feature. WWAN is upgradable for maximum flexibility and the ThinkPad has many security functions. Working with the ThinkPad input devices is a lot of fun, and Lenovo puts in a serviceable Low Power panel. The AMD Ryzen 7 Pro 7840U delivers a great performance and does not drain the battery fast. Fan noise and temperatures are nothing special, but also far away from bad. With the user replaceable keyboard, the ThinkPad T14 Gen 4 has a special feature rarely present on most modern laptops."

"The ThinkPad X1 Titanium is a showcase of what Lenovo thinks business computing will look like in the near future. People want thinner, lighter laptops with high-quality screens and enough computing power to get their work done. The X1 Titanium achieves these goals with some controversial but innovative design choices, including a redesigned keyboard and a pared-down port selection."
