Highly recommended upgrade: Get a glass trackpad!
Yeah, when I had X280, I installed from X1 Carbon Gen 6, I think around 40 EUR upgrade, but so much better!

I saw this guy talking about that thinkpad can offer you many upgradable parts in older models are he fr?
Why don’t you look into the X1 Carbon Gen 6. I got one just yesterday, and it’s fantastic.

Curhat Sedikit: Thinkpad T14 Gen 1
4 juta udah nggak dapet banyak sekarang. Tapi beberapa tahun lalu sebelum harga pada naik, masih bisa dapet ThinkPad T14 Gen 2 Intel di 4 juta tipis. Huge upgrade dibanding Intel gen 8-10, Iris Xe emang nge-carry gen 11. Btw, nggak banyak yang bisa diakalin dari Intel gen 8-10 selain matiin patch Sp

Users with "old thinkpads" what are they capable of?
Well, I have X1 Carbon Gen 6, it is almost a daily driver, as I have some days using it all the time, and some days using my MBA. I bought a new battery for X1, and now it says - 73% - 9 hours left (Power mode - better performance). It has i7-8650U CPU @ 1.90GHz and 16 GB of RAM. The OS is Windows 1

Beginner question about hardware for OpenBSD
My advice: Grab a $150-$200 Thinkpad X1 Carbon gen 6 or newer, throw KDE-Plasma on it and see for yourself why we love it.

Might get a thinkpad. Need suggestions.
for durability and a sim card slot look at t480 or x1 carbon gen 6. both have a wwan slot where you put the sim. the t480 is tankier and easier to fix. for slime rancher you need at least an 8th gen intel with uhd 620 graphics - that runs it at low settings 30fps. grab a refurbished t480 on ebay wit

Are t480 really this good?
The keyboard's good, but it's not incredible - standalone mechanical keyboard (or HHKB) is far more enjoyable for many. As said, M1 Air, or if you don't care about the mods, consider X1 Carbon Gen 6 - it had great keyboard (last gen with 1.8mm travel), but it's sleeker than T480, 1.1kg vs 1.6kg. Sam

Just join the club with a T480s
Now you gotta do the glass trackpad and screen upgrades! I’m running a t480s with 24gb ram, the X1 Yoga glass trackpad, a beautiful really bright and clear 2k screen from my old X1 Carbon Gen 6, and a 1TB SSD.

Fedora 44 + Firefox
I have nothing to add other than I've been experiencing similar issues. Thinkpad x1 carbon gen 6. Software store cannot finish checking for updates, so it's effectively useless right now (dnf upgrade in terminal is fine and works)
