Thinkpad keyboards aren't getting worse. They're getting better with each release
Thanks for understanding where I'm coming from. All the thinkpad keyboards are great. I haven't come across a bad keyboard. I wish you could try a t14g5 or newer. The change is subtle but when you use it to long form write for more than 15 mins, you'll feel is a subtle but good change. The keys push

Any opinions on the T14 Gen 5 AMD?
In this particular model, the OLED display eats battery like there's no tomorrow. You will get like up to 3 hours of battery life, compared to around 6 for the IPS panel. That runtime is with low/moderate use. On reviews you can see up to 12 hours or so (IPS display), but on idle. Also, getting the

Does T14s look and perform more "amateurish" than T14
Ive had some (arrow down, left shift, left alt, "P", "A", "M") failed permanently within a week and some other keys failing randomly. While it's easy to replace a keyboard on a normal ThinkPads - on a "S" series it's a nightmare. Well, i feel that the T14G5 speakers are better than on t14sg3 (howeve

Any opinions on the T14 Gen 5 AMD?
I have this laptop, originally purchased with the lousy screen. A month ago, I bought the OLED panel assembly from Lenovo and upgraded it. I love it now, but had to set the screen to 60hz to save battery life. IMO, the battery life on this model has always been lousy, and the OLED definitely uses mo

What are things you wish Thinkpads would improve on?
At least for me, the keyboard layout on the new ThinkPad models has improved significantly compared to the older ones. I wrote about this here: https://www.reddit.com/r/thinkpad/comments/1e6ey6e/lenovo_thinkpad_txx_2024_t16_gen_3_t14_gen_5/ And the keyboard layout is what matters most to me. Not the feel or

What is the best thinkpad for daily use?
For my daily use i own T14 gen 5 (AMD). My GF got E14 gen 7 (Intel) and i must say I am surprised how good the E14 is. The only really noticeable differences in favour of T14g5 are: keyboard (backlighting and replacability) screen (a little bit better) Otherwise the E14g7 is much better in many ways

My first Thinkpad: T14 Gen 5 (Ryzen 7)
I returned mine because of significant lag due to palm rejection issues causing too much of a delay between typing and mouse usage. It felt like a 2-3 second lag where I couldn't move the mouse after keying and etc. On reddit and on a gemini report, it indicates a 200 ms lag it feels longer. you can
