- mattl 1y agoThe keyboards are way worse now and they all have a trackpad now instead of just the traditional trackpoint that was common to the ThinkPad.
- geoka9 1y agoThe trackpad can be turned off and there's still a Trackpoint on every Thinkpad that I've seen. Unfortunately the keyboards have become more Apple-like in the name if thinness, but I found that a good external keyboard like TEX[0] paired with a Thinkpad 2-in-1 (Yoga) gets me the the best of both worlds.

- 1oooqooq 1y agoso true. the keyboard on Lenovo flagships are barely C tier. and the keyboards on things like E series makes me want to type on my phone instead!
- nextos 1y agoI love ThinkPads, but some models have horribly intrusive fans, whereas others are great. It's necessary to do a bit of research ahead of buying. The new x13 looks really promising.
- 1oooqooq 1y agoproblem after ibm is they are garbage firmware. a few versions after Lenovo took over now you cannot upgrade parts because the bios/firmware have hardcore ids and will refuse non allow listed devices.
