Ah I see, so the P50/P51 uses the same Trackpoint height as on the T480. I'll see if a P52 comes up with 4K at a reasonable price. Is the key travel on the P53 reduced or is the same as in the P52?

Thanks for your feedback Ibthink,
Is it possible to transplant a P52 4K screen into a P50/P51? Also, do you know if the P50/P51 uses the "regular" height Trackpoints?

Regards

I'm looking to buy a used P50 series laptop with 4K display.

I would like to get some feedback regarding which of the P50 series models in regards to overall less issues, from thermal throttling, keyboard quality (does they share the same keyboard and/or key travel?).

Regards

Are you still selling them?

That's good.

Another question, is this screen better compared to the AliExpress one? there's an ebay listing.

EDIT: oh wait you aren't the OP that had a WSXGA+ panel and you only have a WXGA panel. Then yeah going from the WXGA panel to this WUXGA panel is still going to be a quality of life upgrade, though some WSXGA+ panels might have better display quality/viewing experience. You're correct, I got a fai...

Thanks for the reply What about this panel? https://es.aliexpress.com/item/1738987853.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.e6ae2a142lsqjl&algo_pvid=94ca9784-ac1e-48c4-bb05-1dc07a5ba321&algo_exp_id=94ca9784-ac1e-48c4-bb05-1dc07a5ba321-0&pdp_ext_f=%7B%22sku_id%22%3A%229582227683%22%7D It says is for T61 so ...

Sorry to bring back this thread, I got for real cheap a T60 15.4" with 1280x800 panel. Would this screen work? https://www.ebay.com/itm/363306972274?_trkparms=aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D233198%26meid%3Db2d27871f5f441daa59879b2aa76adff%26pid%3D101196%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D5%26s...

Yeah I know, I'll have to call Lenovo Mexico and see if they handle 3-cell batteries for T480, can't see it on their MX site

That's what I was looking for, thanks.
Good thing on the T480 is you can run on internal battery only if you don't need to use it, i.e at home. The bulge is not comfortable when using the laptop on your lap

I've ordered a new T480 which is yet to arrive. Ordered it with the 72Wh battery. Also have a T460p using the slim 3-cell battery FRU 45N1775 According to this page https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/accessories-and-monitors/chargers-and-batteries/batteries/BATT-BO-ThinkPad-Battery-61/p/4X50M08810 The par...

OK, so that's reassuring to know.

Reason of asking is whether to get the used NMB or the other brand new, I'd hate having shiny keys even though it's an NMB keyboard, seller didn't offer too much explanation when asked if the keys were shiny or not.

For example on this Amazon listing: https://www.amazon.com/Original-IBM-Keyboard-45N2141-Warranty/dp/B00CJ1ZH56#customerReviews One of the buyers noted: Do not believe for a moment that this is an original Lenovo keyboard identical to the one that came with your notebook. I have owned a series of Th...

I'm in the process of gathering the parts to perform the classic T420s keyboard installation to a T430s. I've already ordered the palmrest which is still yet to arrive, and now I'm looking to get a decent keyboard that is not compatible . I've found a seller who claims it sells Original, 90% new NMB...

Regarding the Windows 7 issue, I think you should be able to activate W7 using the OEM method described here:

1. I don't think the fingerprint reader are interchangeably but I might be wrong 2. Yes, FHD and regular lower resolutions use the same eDP 2-lane cable, brightness should work unless you have a T450 in which you need specific Lenovo FRU LCD's in order for brightness to work under Windows 3. Power M...

I'm wondering if anyone knows the difference in the bezels for the T460p, there's 2, one for FHD and another WQHD. More than a year ago I installed a Panasonic WQHD to my T460p that came with FHD screen, I noticed that when reassembling the front LCD bezel there's some gap on the bottom left corner ...

Thanks RealBlackStuff , that did the trick

It was disabled on the BIOS, but still it is not showing up in Device Manager, Fn+F5 does nothing, I think that combination was on the older 7 row keyboards.

That's funny, I have the Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC-8260, I think that card does have Bluetooth but I see no entries under Device Manager

Does anyone knows if it's possible to add an internal bluetooth module to a T460p?

Regards

Any date when the WQHD kit will become available?

You can swap the panel on the T460 for any Full HD you'd like, on the T450 you can but unless you use Linux you will not be able to lower the brightness, it will be stuck at 100%, supposedly there's a new EDID override to make the brightness work but couldn't figure out when I had a T450 on my hands...

Is it worth it to go to such lengths just for the quad core CPU on the T470p? cause thats literally the only advantage the T470p has over the TP25. I don't get the incessant need for a quad core cpu on the tp25 its not designed to be a heavy workstation. I think it would be a better idea to get a P...

I think Intel implemented the EDID override on a newer version for the T450 models, some info on this thread:
http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads ... 01/page-22

Not sure if the EDID would make the brightness work.

I'm guessing the hardware is Alps and not Synaptics, that's what happened when I bought a T450 trackpad to use on my T440p, the Synaptics driver didn't work.

I'm using this version:
8.216.1616.114
Driver Date: 11/7/2014

Google it and try installing it

A used T440/T450 or even T440p with FHD panel

Lenovo again, remove that nice features on the new machines, but there's still hope. Download nircmd: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/nircmd.html Then place a shortcut of the executable with this command: C:\nircmd\nircmd.exe cmdwait 1000 monitor off you can assign a shortcut hotkey, I chose F7, now ju...

If they confirmed you the model number then you will be fine, I've bought 2 AUO B140HAN01.2 from AliExpress from two different sellers and the displays have been flawless, one is on my T440p and I've the other as backup.
