Re: P50/P51/P52/P53 Buying Advice
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?

Re: P50/P51/P52/P53 Buying Advice
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?

P50/P51/P52/P53 Buying Advice
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?).

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

Re: T420s Keyboard recommendation on where to get it
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.

1. I don't think the fingerprint reader are interchangeably but I might be wrong 2.

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.

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...

I think Intel implemented the EDID override on a newer version for the T450 models, some info on this thread:

Not sure if the EDID would make the brightness work.

Re: T450s ebay Touchpad - no ultranav
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:

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.
