ThinkPad P series
The ThinkPad P series line of workstation laptops produced by Lenovo and was introduced by the company as a successor to the previous ThinkPad W series. With 15.6" and 17.3" (later 16" only) screens, the ThinkPad P series saw the reintroduction of physically large laptops into the ThinkPad line. Marketed largely as portable workstations, many P series laptops can be configured with high-end mobile workstation-class Intel processors as well as error correction code (ECC) memory (only with Xeon and select Core HX processors) and a discrete Nvidia Quadro GPU. The P series offers independent software vendor (ISV) certifications from software vendors such as Adobe and Autodesk for various computer-aided design (CAD) software. The P52 and P72 models are the last current Lenovo laptops with a dedicated magnesium structural frame.

All 16" models have a standard 6-row ThinkPad Precision Keyboard (with Numeric Keypad and optional backlight), TrackPoint and touchpad, and optional fingerprint reader. They use only 230 W AC power adapters. In 2022, the 15.6" and 17.3" configurations has been dropped in favor of a 16" one, which has the Core HX series, which replaced the mobile Xeon W line.
