Interesting that x1 gets much more love than the canonical T series thinkpads. Myself, I am buying up the t480 laptops as they are I believe last generation to have easily user replaceable external batteries. Laptops with internal battery only make me claustrophobic :-/
- djtango 4y agoMy x240 had hot swappable batteries, I could get almost 16 hours of hardcore usage even after years of use. Those were the days
- NikolaNovak 4y agoYup; I've had an x250 once upon the time which was similar: lovely form factor, and I got the extended battery for it which made for slightly better cooling, longer battery life, and it felt easy/good to carry around. (the 40 series, I personally avoided like the plague - I'm a trackpoint user, and the removal of the buttons for that series alone, made many an IT architect slam the poor machine onto desk in frustration; but with 50 they brought it back and haven't dared to mess with us since:)
- djtango 4y agoYes the soft buttons were awful! I remember the first time I installed Linux, the soft right click wasn't even supported. WHAT were Lenovo thinking... /facepalm I have seen that people actually modded the x250 trackpad (with hard buttons for trackpoint) but I never had the motivation to do so after I moved to using the external trackpoint keyboard
