Got this T540p for free from work, it came with a dual-core i5-4200M, 8GB of RAM, the awful 1080p TN panel and the GT730M dGPU....
Sorry for a dumb title. I’m considering two versions of Thinkpad Z13 - one with 3k OLED and another with FHD IPS panel. The first one has obviously a better display quality and gamut range but version with IPS will provide more battery life....

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....

So I’m looking for ThinkPad alternatives, so far I’ve see repairable laptops like the Framework laptop and the Tuxedo linux laptops. What other choices do I have if I want a tough, reliable, and utilitarian computer?

What is a good source/seller for the EU? The nipple included with my qwerty replacement board for a T480 won’t last much longer… The original one from the qwertz board is lost in space. Any recomendation?...
I currently have a 128 SSD on my computer, but I just bought a new 512GB SSD, and I’ve already installed a temp linux distro but my computer doesn’t boot it, it send me to the screen that you see in the pictures.

This is my first thinkpad ever. I chose to possess T480 long ago, but my Thinkbook 14s was working fine, and also T480 was not available nearby me (Nepal). Finally when I got a chance to order one from Malaysia, I instantly chose T480 for 1300RM. For Nepali market, it is super cheap (about $270). This is a 16/512 GB variant with...
My Thinkpad X250 suddenly stopped working one day. I opened it and I saw this chip left to the Ethernet port. It seems like it has exploded or something like that. Before it stopped working, sometimes it would get as hot as 95°C. Do have any idea of why it would stop working and if so, how I could repair it? Thanks in advance.
I originally got this ARM ThinkPad to install Linux onto it, but support for the Snapdragon 8cx processor, and other hardware hasn’t been supported until recently. I read a thread just the other day that it was now working on the Ubuntu Concept ISO built specifically for the X13s, and thought that I’d give it a try!...
Hi, my X280 just suddenly won't turn on. It was left on a bed alone so no physical damage. When plugged in the charging indicator is solid white after flashing white 3 times. I've tried turning it on with the battery out but plugged in. I've also tried draining the CMOS battery (unplugged CMOS and the battery and held the power...

I’ve been trying to find P1/X1 Extreme (Gen 1/2/3) and X1 Carbon laptops (Gen 7/8) that come in the configuration of Intel 8th/9th/10th gen (newer is better) in i7, or the AMD Ryzen equivalent of it, 16/32GB of RAM, 512GB/1TB of storage space, FHD display and preferably 2xSODIMM, if possible. No dedicated GPU, because I’m...
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?...

Ok, I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to hardware stuff. I have a Thinkpad T490 with the 1920x1080 non-touch screen. My complaint is that I ended up with the model with only 45% NTSC. I would like to upgrade to something with 72%....
