I got off on an Apple rant there, and forgot to say that as someone who came primarily from the Apple laptop ecosystem, I find ThinkPads the only satisfying PC laptop experience. The quality is similar to Apple, they have fabulous keyboards, and Lenovo isn't trying to copy Apple's design aesthetics

I miss the x220 with every press of the button. That's why I got a refurb SK-8855 when they popped up a few years ago.

I love the keyboard on the x220, the last one. Ooh Lenovo what have you done! Seriously I hope you don't lift your laptops that way all the time. Soon it'll have issues.

Yeah, honestly I've learnt to look at comparable options from other brands in addition to the ThinkPad series, that way you'll get the best of all worlds!

I upgraded the hard drive to an SSD 10 years ago, increased the memory a while ago, and I've had an extended battery and a battery dock since I got it. Still goes 3.5 hours on battery. I even installed a modified version of W

Hi. Just landed on your post, and I understand your frustration. I've been a similar user for over a decade with the legendary x220 Thinkpad. As a Lenovo fan, I might sadly admit that even this company has not been immune from losing its quality in the world market of competition for cutting costs d

Is there a Thinkpad/ Lenovo that is entirely made of aluminum?Love Thinkpads, have a lot of them, specially old ones [t410/ t420/ t430/ x220] their keyboards are amazing, Linux support too, but the plastic get flimsy.
