Re: X1 Extreme Gen 1 screen upgrade
Good news: the panel works with my X1E. By default, it ran at QHD @ 60hz, but I was able to setup a custom, 165hz profile in nvidia control panel, and it worked flawlessly. (I run in dgpu only mode.) I'm still waiting on the proper back panel and hinges before I can button it all up. So, it is yet ...

Re: X1 Nano's with WWAN or WWAN-READY
I would be curious to know as well if it can be upgraded later on. I am interested in the nano but undecided if I want to get the wwan. I can buy the 2k screen right now but the WWAN versions wont be available until later according to Lenovo.

If vPro is not needed then it seems there is no other difference between the two?

Re: X1 Extreme Gen 2 worse than its predecessor
I was considering the Gen 2 for the OLED screen, but may just keep my Gen1 a bit longer.

Re: Thinkpad x1 extreme battery life
I have been using my Gen1 with 4k for over a year, and the battery is not great no matter what is tweaked. The HD screen may be more efficient but I have just accepted it. Good thing it charges quick and always keep the charger around.

Ah ok that's actually nice! Just wish it had a gtx 1060/1070 now.. lol the 1050ti seems to be the bottle neck in this case... I'd just get a mid range quad core i7 for my use case and I'll be good Being so thin and light probably cant squeeze a 1070 like some of the gaming laptops. But still a dedi...

Re: Old member looking for new laptop
If you haven't seen the brand since the X230, the quality has gone down hill pretty good. I was not particularly fond of the build quality the x230. I think I ended up selling it after 2 months later here after getting my macbook. It seem the x1 is their flagship so I would hope they put their best...

I am coming for a macbook pro. Looking for something light and slim but still be able to handle some graphic design and photo editing. The mac served that purpose, it was still a bit on the heavy side. I was looking at the new x1 extreme with the 1050ti. Specs show 3 lbs fully loaded. I did apprecia...

Old member looking for new laptop
I have been a long time member here, but have been out of the thinkpad scene for about 5-6 years. Started with the T30, then T-41 (rip) to my prized T42-P in 2005. Had the x230 very briefly then switched to mac. Had all variations of the macbook, imac etc. Now I am back to PC and always think of the...

Re: T60 Keyboard Comparison (with embedded pics)
This is a great thread that deserves a bump. I found this while seraching information about the different thinkpad keyboards. I have a T61p and am looking for an NMB keyboard. I thought they were made in Thailand, or is that for the earlier NMB keyboards?

Re: Dim screen T61p
Thanks all for the information. The screen does go dimmer when I dim the screen and the computer is hooked up via power supply. Is there someplace that can get the CFFLs changed or upgraded to something newer. The 1920x1200 is a remarkable screen, the current T series has max resolution of 1920x1080...

Dim screen T61p
Hello All,
I have a T61p with a 1920x1200 screen resolution. The screen seems very dim at highest brightness. It is a 6 year old laptop and it has been a while since I used it so perhaps thats how the screens were back then?
Is this a common issue for laptops of this age?
Thanks

Re: ThinkPad X1 Carbon
I will wait for IPS display and 4g connectivity, that will work for me.
I hear battery life is not that great ?
