thinkpad

I got the 21K5001JUS, which has the R7 Pro 7840u, 64GB LPDDR5x 6400, and OLED 2880x1800. Ordered it August 20th, shipped expedited on September 1st, and arrived in the upper Midwest this afternoon, September 5th....

I’m planning to purchase a used T480, and want to know how the battery life would be on Linux. Online I see a lot of good numbers, and I am considering carrying multiple of the external batteries, but I want another opinion. Also, do you have any recommends on a good price to “go for it” and any other laptops to consider...

I’m considering buying a new thinkpad and possibly changing the battery out for a price up to 550 dollars, but preferably less. I mean to use the device for school and travel and do value battery life most, but prefer some better performance— I will be doing some image editing and video editing. Any recommends?...

I have a Thinkpad L440 that I use as a daily driver. I was looking for a laptop fan cooler, but I don’t know if a fan base that just pours air from below is the most ideal, considering that the hot air comes out of the fan from the left side....

I know they never were an option since the T400/T500 days and I’ve seen people flat out say that even if they fit, they won’t work with the T440P/T540P....

I’ve bought batteries off of 3 sellers so far from eBay and all the batteries that I got were defective. I really want to bring this thing back to life and am wondering if anyone knows a website or seller that provides working batteries for the X60 Tablet? Thanks in advance!

I’m looking to buy a new thinkpad, I’ve seen a lot of people around the internet saying to stay away from lenovo.com. does anyone have any experience with lenovo.com or other resellers?

Recently I decided to update my coreboot, with some config changes. It worked, but after I put my laptop to sleep it doesn’t boot anymore. (Power LED and fans turn on just for a second)...

I bought a replacement battery that was not OEM off eBay. After about 4-6 months of use, the thing nearly blew up on me. The battery got so hot it could’ve started a fire. Seriously, spend the extra money, its not worth the risk....

I bought it from eBay. It is the best computer Ive had in a while, even tho is somewhat old. I love it.

Been trying to look for these plastic sleeves but I’m not sure what they’re exactly called. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

It’s the classic “you’ve plugged the charger in but you have to wiggle it a million times and get it in a perfect position for the laptop to actually charge”. Obviously, this is less than ideal....

Edit: Conclusion at the bottom...

Hey everyone! You may remember me posting about a week ago about my t440p that would hard freeze after a couple minutes. I’m please to report that the problem seems to be resolved! So because this issue seemed to mostly happen while watching videos I suspected there was something wrong with the onboard graphics. Initially I...

The framework laptop promises to be an upgradeable and repairable laptop, not quite the same philosophy that makes thinkpads great, but I wonder if newer thinkpads are good enough to prefer over a framework.

I come from 3rd world country (hence small monthly wage), and any pricier battery sold here having the same quality as the 15 USD battery (there are no original or near original battery sold here, and last time I tried to soldered new battery cell, I failed, miserably)....

Hello everyone! So basically the title. I’ve already replaced the ram and tried running a different OS and still have this issue. The computer passes all of the onboard diagnostics. Just wanted to see if anyone else has encountered anything like this. Thanks!

I have bought an used T470 for Uni and so far it has been the best laptop I have ever had, and when times comes I need an upgade i wonder how much upgradeable a laptop like this can be.

This one is perfect for my budget (not counting shipping it to my country)...

I spent way too long to get it working and I was almost ready to give up....

I’ve been trying to test Intel Rapid Start Technology on my X1C9 and see how it compares to os-driven hibernation....
