A surprise. I always felt screens have been one of their best features, with great consistency and brightness so far. I'm looking to replace at the moment, and t460 t560 are shortlisted along with dell and HP. So now I'm clueless again. :p
Don't like the 6 row chiclet keyboard, sound is garbage on recent machines I've had, don't seem as resilient, and not the same attention to detail.
Crapware? Access Connections (Adobe Air made it slow junk), warranty/help/update thing. No Norton any more. They started adding other junk?
- rayiner 10y agoI don't think it's just me grousing: https://www.reddit.com/r/thinkpad/comments/59pqrh/lenovos_engineers_are_holding_a_meeting_after https://www.reddit.com/r/thinkpad/comments/59pqrh/lenovos_en.... As for crapware: my T450s came with a bunch of Lenovo-branded garbage, like a settings app, a power management app, and an update app. That leaves you with, e.g. two different ways to configure your power management settings, and three different ways to configure things like mouse settings (the Windows modern app, the lenovo app, and the Windows app). For $1,000, a machine should just come with Microsoft software.
- anexprogrammer 10y agoHah. :) I must have got models with OK screens, by sheer luck. I forgot a few. I killed them too. Except I kept update for TP drivers. Win Update has got them wrong in the past. 'apt-get upgrade' starts to look quite advanced! :D
- user5994461 10y agoAll Thinkpad laptops can support at least 3 different screens. The default shipped screens are okay-ish. The IPS displays have a reputation of good quality but you gotta pay extra.
