Just got it today so I haven’t had much time to play with it yet. But feel free to ask me anything about it and I’ll answer when I can. The model I got has the non-touch 100% sRGB 400 nits display.

How’s the build quality? I hear the newer thinkpads aren’t nearly as durable as they used to be

Build quality is excellent and it certainly doesn’t feel any less durable than other ThinkPads I’ve used going back to the T450s.

every time i see a thinkpad i’m reminded of my first IT job cannibalizing hard drives, keyboard, screens, touchpads, and pointers from other broken thinkpads to save money and make the department’s budget balance a little bit better while the company raked in billions of dollars every quarter.

i mean to sound nostalgic more than bitter because it was FANTASTIC company to work for at the time and things like the smell of a brand new thinkpad out of its plastic or the sounds of keyboard snapping into place and the black & red aesthetic always takes me back like some old man remembering better days. lol

What CPU and what’s the battery life? (that might take a bit)

Also what’s your opinion on the notch?

CPU is AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 360. It’s too early to form an opinion about battery life, but so far it seems promising. As we speak the battery life is 67% and it shows 7 hours remaining. This is on Linux mind you, and I’m not doing anything heavy. Will report back tomorrow.

You’ll need to go through the back and remove at very least the main board to get to keyboard

I’m liking it very much so far, so I’m afraid not.
