> Thinkpad T14 Gen 4

It would still have a garbage-tier (relative to mac) 1080p screen? Of course upgrade to OLED is only ~$250 which isn’t that bad

The E15 is way too plasticky for it to be a fair comparison also the screen is awful.

While it’s on sale sure. Otherwise the price is much, much higher https://www.lenovo.com/fr/fr/configurator/cto/index.html?bun...

I picked the upgrade to the low-power screen, which should look much better than the base screen, although probably not as good as a Mac one. OLED would cost an extra €100 compared to that, although it does have some compromises such as higher power draw. Also, current Thinkpads have 1920x1200 screens on most models now, not 1920x1080. And the OLED ones are 2880x1800, which sounds nice but honestly 1200p sounds nicer as it'd be usable without scaling.

Those prices in the French store look absolutely wild to me. In the Dutch store, the base model T14 Gen 4 AMD starts at 999, without any discounts visible!
