Thinkpads Forum

The thin lid is significantly weaker, which can be noticeably twisted even under low pressure. Pressure on the back will result in picture distortions and slight creaking noises. We can also see a build quality issue at the display, because there is a small gap between the lower edge of the frame and the panel. Although there should not be any functional restrictions, we would expect that a premium device does not show these kinds of issues.

This is basically a good idea, but the impression of the T460p after the review is pretty mixed.

Some of the mentioned issues can be avoided with other configurations (SSD, more RAM), but overall, we are still rather disappointed by the ThinkPad T460p.

I have read about the gap issue in Lenovo forums so it is not an isolated case.

This review is ridiculous! The T460p is supposed to be a performance model, what's the point of getting such a poorly speced version to test?! They should re-do the review with a top of the line version.

And a bad screen with PWM flickering again!
Do those idiots at Lenovo never learn?

I find the WQHD panel to be outstanding, best notebook panel I've ever seen.

The WQHD screen is terrific. Great color and sharpness. I'm coming from a T530 with the FHD display. Something about that screen always bugged me, especially at lower brightness levels, and it also used a PWM backlight. But the screen on my T460p doesn't bother me at all, even at low brightness. I'm sure there are people who are sensitive to a 220Hz backlight PWM freq, and Lenovo should have designed this with PWM-free dimming, but for me it's all good.
