The market in which T series ThinkPads are normally sold value screen quality at the bottom. We order them by the truckload it seems and we always opt for the cheapest, crappiest screen they have.
Why? because these are business computers that spend all day looking displaying boring business applications. The most interesting thing they do is Zoom meetings.
We even get sub 1080p displays because, no shit, they are a waste on many of our users who have less than stellar eyesight. You may wonder why we don't just use the desktop sclaing feature in Windows 10. And thats because more than one of our niche industry specific core applications is completely incompatible with it. And if you try to use it the interface will become horribly mangled with missing text and interface elements that are impossible to click.
T series are great business computers but they aren't always the best choice for everyone. The best display they offer is just OK. Not great. But this isn't a given across the line. Lenovo does have models with great screens. Just not the T series.
- nucleardog 5y agoI don’t know if it’s the best display they offer, but my T490 has a 1440P HDR IPS panel that suits me fine. I’d consider it more than “just okay”. That said, I agree with your general point because all the other screen options were hot garbage.
