dr_st is right, 61++ means 72Wh and 61+ 48Wh. No reason to go with 61+ (slightly lighter I think). Regarding the internal battery, mine is made by SMP and it seems to be in a pretty bad shape, only 16Wh full charge capacity after half a year and 11 cycles. Got my 61++ LGC battery two months ago, hav...

I've upgraded from my Surface Pro 2 to a Surface Pro 4; bigger (12.3" 3:2 vs. 10.6" 16:9), slimmer, lighter, fanless (got the m3 model), much better keyboard, it's awesome, I love it.

Plenty of them on aliexpress; just read the description carefully.

I would not mix different size modules on T400, they are prone to this kind of visual corruption: https://support.lenovo.com/ro/en/documents/ht001223 Type B visual corruption is a permanent limitation of the Intel chipset. There exists the following three options to work around this issue. Option 1:...

Also you could do a test and log it with HWiNFO64; start logging, start Prime95 and after a minute or so start Furmark too. And don't forget, the NVidia Quadro 2000M has a 55W TDP so is a pretty hungry GPU. As GACrabill said before, check your TPFC settings; here's my TPFC setup (smart mode 1): Leve...

Arctic Silver 5 is quite expensive anything cheaper will be good enough?

I couldn't say which is the best ThinkPad of all times, reducing my experience to the models I owned and really used (all of them listed in my signature), but from what I've owned, I liked/loved the most the 600X, the T41 and the T420s. Maybe the T420s just a little bit more, even our relation is ov...

Both my T420s and T430 work with aCrucial 8GB DDR3L-1600 module, combined with a 4GB DDR3-1600 1.5v module, no problems so far.

I barely used the SP2 in my two weeks holiday but my Kindle and the phone. When the villa's on the beach just looking at the sea and listening to it is more appealing...

Ahh... Lynx and PINE. Life was simple back then.

Lynx during my university years and PINE 'til recently (2007). Ah, and NorthernLight.

That's the info displayed in the basic mode, not advanced, I think. What price you've been asked for? And what configuration? They're selling here (Romania) for ~250 euro, and the T430s for ~350. Another thing - the T420s with integrated graphics might be affected by this hardware issue so better go...

The T420s' battery is rated 44Wh, you'll get about 3h+ under the moderate usage. You can use Lenovo Power Manager (advanced>battery information) to see how much wear it has (cycles, actual capacity). Mine (Panasonic), after 4 years and less than 50 cycles is at 27Wh. If you want a cheap ultrabay bat...

If you want to make an idea about the performance of these CPUs, here are some comparison charts:

Is data roaming active for the SIM you're using with your X1C? Also, I remember there are some settings like "allow roaming"/"connect automatically except roaming", I'd check for these too.

I see the fan is not at full speed, I'm wondering if the throttling would be a bit smaller with the fan at level 64 / 5600rpm or not.

I've bought from this seller a T420s palmrest, with fingerprint, came in original Lenovo packaging, all good, hope this helps.

There is no 1920x1080 T440, but 1600x900 and 1366x768, hope I'm not wrong.

Anyway, how is T440 compared to T420s?

T440 misses the physical trackpoint buttons, if this part doesn't bother you then it's a good laptop, the price is also good. Hope you got HD+ resolution.

But admitting it to the EU with everything Erdogan has done and is doing would be preposterous don't you think Too big and populous, and probably will outnumber the biggest EU countries in a few years; so no, this is not gonna happen, France and Germany won't accept such a big change to the distrib...

What should I say? Turkey is important enough to Europe for us to care, don't you think?

That's strange...

Another thing, I think there is a BIOS setting regarding display's brightness, try to change it, maybe it's worth a shot.

Probably it's PWM dimming related; rise the brightness at 100% and see if it's better, and then try various brightness levels.

You make it sound bad as Murdoch's newspapers do.

I once asked Rupert Murdoch why he was so opposed to the European Union. “That’s easy,” he replied. “When I go into Downing Street they do what I say; when I go to Brussels they take no notice.”
