X1 Carbon Gen 5 Performance
I recently purchased a 2nd hand Thinkpad X1 Carbon with i7-7600U, 16GB of RAM, 512GB SSD and a 1440p screen. I installed EndeavorOS on it and I noticed, in plasma 6, that the scroll in Firefox is a bit sluggish; after I installed hyprland and, with a lot of effect active like blur, it does feel sluggish too. Is that normal for...

AMD variant of Thinkpad E14 Gen 6 and E16 Gen 2 already available on the Indian webpage?
Tried using Google Search for exact keyword match, and so far, it only points out to the page in India. There’s still no review available online, which is a bummer. What’s funny is that their price is almost the same as the previous generation E14 Gen 5 and E16 Gen 1 laptops, I would argue that they’re even more cheaper,...

Linux on Thinkpad P14s Gen2 issues

ThinkPad E14 G6 & E16 G2: Lenovo updates budget ThinkPads with second SO-DIMM (www.notebookcheck.net)
“A bigger change than the upgrade of the memory type is the fact that the memory is no longer partially soldered: E14 G6 and E16 G1 have two SO-DIMM slots now for up to 64 GB of completely upgradeable memory.”
The new Thinkpad L series has the same improvement as T series, but the AMD variants still uses the Ryzen 7030 series mobile APU
The L series will still be using the Ryzen 7030 series of processors, just like the last year. While I’m happy that they have embraced the spirit of Thinkpad again, I’m really disappointed by the machine using outdated Zen3 processors.
Any good mods for E14 gen 3?

ThinkPad Alternatives
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?
Any news/leaks about the Thinkpad E series (2024, AMD-based)?
Will it respect the 2024 T-series upgradability choices? What will be the expected price range?

Thoughts on Green Cell batteries? (Thinkpad T480)
I’m on the fence about buying a new 3rd-party battery for my Thinkpad T480 as the current external 61 battery is only yielding ~3 hours on normal use (90℅ capacity, so still good given I bought the laptop used) and there’s no internal one on mine....

How to fix T480s/T490 keyboard connector (images for context inside)
Hey everyone. A while ago I ordered a keyboard from ebay for my T480, but I failed to notice that the one I got was for the T480s, therefore not compatible with my laptop. In the process of checking it out I lifted one of the connecting tape thingys (idk what theyre called) and some of the black plastic covering on the back of...
