I have a T495. I highly recommend it. Be warned, the keyboard is a chiclet keyboard, not the traditional Thinkpad keyboard. But having an AMD GPU and an AMD CPU automatically makes this my choice after having dealt with the horrors of NVIDIA on Linux.

The traditional ThinkPad keyboards are long gone (save for the T25 anniversary model). That said, they are still better than most other laptop keyboards I've tried.
After having cycled between HP, Dell, and Asus, bought my first Thinkpad two months ago (T490). Was rather shocked at just how much better the keyboard is compared to the others, and for those others I'd always tested the keyboard at a store first.
I think the old ThinkPad keyboards are gone forever now. All models are chiclet.
