GEN2 P16S Hinges

This happened with my X13 Gen 2. Both the screen case itself was busted and the hinge had broken in half. I bought a new hinge and the screw holes that were broken off I put back together with metal glue. It was a major pain in the ass, but it's doable.

Advice on new laptop for the wife

Buy the newest T14 you can buy, your budget should easily get you at least a gen 4. Both amd and intel become quite competitive after the 2nd gen so the difference between them is splitting hairs. X13 is also an option, but you’re going to spend a fair bit more for similar specs, make sure you buy o

What's your current "dream Thinkpad"?

Is the X13 series dead?

i already asked this question and it seems like waiting is the only answer... but even if we do get the nxt gen x13, i highly doubt we will get the modularity of t14 gen 7 which i hope we get...

Any Thinkpad Recommendation?

as far as I know, X13 Yoga dan non Yoga itu fully soldered, secara berat ini paling ringan. T14 Gen 2 dan P14 Gen 2 bisa upgrade tapi one slot only, berat sekitar 1.4 kg gw saranin ambil T14, soalnya gw liat di sub thinkpad banyak yg bilang P14 series cooling + heat managementnya jelek

Worth getting an older model for school use?

Try to get X13/T14(s) g2 or X1 g9, or newer. X13 g1 will do the job, but this only has 8GB of non-upgradeable RAM, which is the bare minimum nowadays, and 10th gen Intel is basically the same as 8th gen and far worse than newer generations. So don't get it unless it's the best you can get within you
