I'm on T14 Gen 1 AMD with Fedora with the latest BIOS for the past 2 years and hasn't really experienced any issues. Perhaps I'm missing something here. Care to elaborate?

Battery life is worse than in my 10 year old laptop. Battery life in suspend is exceptionally bad. I haven't ever used anything THAT bad.

Thanks. The posts says all AMD-based ThinkPads are affected. And I can't confirm that with both of my T14 Gen 1s which I leave on S3 for multiple days. I haven't tried the S0-something yet, but will do. It looks like you did way more research than me, so I believe that it's a real issue. Perhaps it's down to individual component combination, like planar revision, battery, etc.?

My experience is otherwise, see my comment above.
