Lenovo ThinkPad P1 Gen 7 is the world's first laptop to sport LPCAMM2 memory — more compact, higher performance, lower power

ThinkPad P1 Gen 7.

Lenovo's new ThinkPad P1 Gen 7 Workstation laptop is officially the world's first laptop to feature Micron's bleeding edge LPCAMM2 memory modules. LPCAMM2 is a new memory type based on CAMM2 that's 64% smaller than DDR5 SO-DIMMs, and 58% more power efficient thanks to the use of LPDDR5X memory. It also makes it possible to upgrade your laptop's memory, unlike traditional LPDDR5X solutions.

The ThinkPad P1 is Lenovo's latest iteration of its ThinkPad branded prosumer laptops. The Gen 7 variant is the only model in the P1 lineup sporting Micron's LPCAMM2 memory, with a maximum supported capacity of 64GB. While that's somewhat inferior to SO-DIMM options that can reach higher capacities, with LPCAMM2 the Gen 7 version is the only ThinkPad laptop that has access to LPDDR5X modules operating at 7467 MT/s. The official CAMM2 standard can handle up to 128GB, so the Gen 7's maximum memory capacity could change in the future.
