t470s currently but have been using linux and thinkpads since the mid/late 90s.
Battery life isn't great agree. My solution currently is a USB-C portable battery which I get an additional full laptop charge. In the past x220 and t60(p) were favourite models.
Other annoyance (still!) is sleep seems to work on certain kernels and not on others.
Was on ubuntu forever but slowly may move back to debian as I don't like snap packages.
Mouse is Logitech MX Anywhere 2S
Only suggestion currently on getting an laptop is usb-c, ips screen, nvme drive and lots of ram. In fact the CPU doesn't matter much. I used the x series for a decade but now moved to t series and they have gotten lighter and are good value.
- the_af 6y ago> Mouse is Logitech MX Anywhere 2S This mouse has seriously become my favorite ever. Outstanding battery life, very comfortable, it works on any surface I've tried, and it works great on both macOS and Linux.
- nunb 6y agoyour desiderata are now available in the T60 form factor! Xue Yao makes the T70 franken-pad, a 4:3 IPS screen laptop with modern internals [1] ideal for someone who loved the x220 and t60 ... battery life is great too. you should take a look!
