>tfw to intelligent to own a laptop

Fun fact: that's a T520, rather than the T420 or the X220 that most of /g/ owns. So a lot of rossposters aren't actually using the world's best laptop. IMO the T520 is better than the T420 solely because it can use the W520 1080p panel (TN, but pretty good) as a stock option.
>>
>>59864709
Yeah. T520 user here. It's an okay laptop. I don't see what the hype is all about.
>>
>>59864787
This. Further adding to the irony, /g/ uses the shit tier X220 for what the T420 would be better suited for, and the T420 for what the T520 would be better suited for
>>

>>59864811
What's the keyboard like fampai
>>
>>59864862
It's okay. It's better than my previous laptop (Dell Inspiron). But I've not been a Thinkpad user for most of my life so I can't say I understand the keyboard meme.
>>
>>59864787
>W520 1080p panel (TN, but pretty good)
good luck finding one tho, that shit is rarer than the holy grail.
there's one on ebay for like 250gbp.

that's literally the only thing holding me back, I'd get one if the panel could be found easily.

My older brother now has a t430. Only complaint is a slow boot time, but that can be fixed with a fresh install and a new HDD most likely.
>>
>>59865024

get a SSD retard

I have the posibillity to use a T430s

Im new to /g/ so what should i do with it except install ganhoo
>>
>>59865144
I suggested him to do that. He has been looking into is.

Is a HDD+SSD combo possible?
>>
>>59865201
It also has a dead battery so i need one of those also
>>
>>59864709
Of course, I really would have liked the W520 more but it's twice as expensive.

>>59864955
My T520 has a 1080 panel, it's an upgrade and it's not the one that Lenovo offers but rather the panel the equivalent the Elitebook of its generation offered. Still pretty good, nice viewing angles, good colors, a bit warm.
>>
>>59864955
It's 55 USD plus shipping on Ali:

>>
>>59865211
yes, also for max speeds I'd suggest a msata SSD + SSHD combo
>>
>>59865260
No, wait, apparently those are lower quality. These are better, but 85 plus shipping: https://aliexpress.com/item/15-6-1920-1080-Matrix-Laptop-Full-HD-LCD-screen-B156HW01-V-4-B156HW02-V-1/32765007193.html
>>
>>59864709
yes. 13'' rMBP
>>
>>59864787
This so hard
The t420 is the worst meme of all time
>>
>>59865259

The original lenovo panel had 95% of srgb color gamut and very good viewing angles iirc.

What model is the elitebook panel?

>>59865260
I doubt it's the original one, might be a "compatible" one.
>>
>>59865290
Pretty sure they are "compatible", the exact auo panel was discontinued long ago, so the only originals left are used ones.
>>
>>59865334
Mine is AU Optronics B156HW01 V3, I see it offered as a replacement part for Elitebooks. You're right about the colors, according to
http://www.panelook.com/B156HW01%20V3_AUO_15.6_LCM_overview_685.html
http://www.panelook.cn/B156HW01%20V4_AUO_15.6_LCM_overview_686.html
Mine has only 60% whereas the V4 has 95% indeed. Still miles better than the 1366x768 mine came with.

>>59865334
>>59865377
>>59865260
Indeed this is most likely a compatible panel like mine.
>>
>>59865377
>>59865397
If the seller says it is the same panel, you can always get a refund if he's trying to chink you. I mean, AUO made hundreds of thousands of these, and China is littered with OEM spares for Thinkpads. It's not too much of a stretch to think that these are NIB OEM parts that weren't bought back in the day.
>>
>>59865456
>It's not too much of a stretch to think that these are NIB OEM parts that weren't bought back in the day.

Not really, it's a known fact that the exact AUO B156HW01 V.4 and the V.7 panels, which were the only good ones, are almost extinct and that anything that it's new is probably a compatible one, it might even have the same model number, but you can almost be %100 sure it's not the original AUO panel.

>>59864955
TFW you bought a fucked w520 for 20 bucks that had a perfectly auo working panel

He certainly is now. 2 hours of video where he fixes maybe two boards and spends 90% of the time ranting.

He might have already covered the majority of problems/fixes in shorter videos in the past but when he gets something that's really fucked up now he doesn't make a concise video about fixing it, he just does it on the stream which takes at least three times as long and often doesn't have the detail process he used to do.

Yes, I am still using a 2010 MacBook Air. Need to change the battery though.

I also bought a cheap Lenovo IdeaPad 310 with 12 GB of RAM recently because I was tired of only having 4 GB of RAM but the trackpad and screen are so shit I keep going back to my trusty MacBook Air. Will probably end up selling the Lenovo and buying a new MacBook Air or whatever cheap MacBook they sell after the next refresh.
>>
>>59870847
You know there are laptops with more than 4gb of ram with trackpads and screens that aren't complete shit. You just made two shitty purchases instead of one half decent one.

>>59865201

Don't know my friend, I pretty happy with my 7 year old MacBook Air.

MacBooks
>>
>>59871082
And any Dell or ThinkPad with a precision touchpad from a non shit branding
>>
>>59870745
Haha shame anime lovers mate Xd
>>
>>59871100
>And any Dell or ThinkPad with a precision touchpad

Vastly inferior to MacBook trackpad
>>
>>59871234
But they'll also include a trackpoint, which is vastly superior to any trackpad
>>
No, I'm not Louis so I can't hold that thing like it's lightweight.

I use the X220 because I like small. Though to be completely honest I don't use it much anymore.
>>
>>59870847
this

i got a cheap 256gb 2011 macbook air running only debian and the screen touchpad form factor and weight shit on my old memepad

/g/ has lost its credibility....
