Are they easy to repair? And is 8/16GB enough? Looking to buy something similar too.
- m4rtink 6y agoMy t460p can go up to 64 GB. Some of the newer ones have part of the ram soldered on though, need to watch for that if you want to max it in the future.
- amalantony06 6y ago16GB is enough for the sort of work that I do. But if that's not sufficient for you, you could get the X1 Extreme which is the "Pro" version of the X1 Carbon, or you could get the Thinkpad P1 (ultra-portable workstation) or even a Thinkpad T series (corporate focused - cheaper than X1 & P series). X1 & P1 have a Carbon fibre chassis which is why they are more expensive than the T series, which has a magnesium alloy chassis. The newer Thinkpads are not as extensible/repairable as back in the day. However, anything is a significant improvement when compared to the horrible dictatorial ecosystem of Apple.
