I don’t mind picking the yoga. But also to add on:I don’t need a touch scree that the yoga is offering,
The thinkpad keyboard is really an advantage.

You still prefer 4k display? Erm batter life wise I’m ok cause I don’t work continues for long hours max I think about 4-6 hours stretch before I take a break and can do 1-2 hours charging. 4K wise I guess I still can live with a uhd since 14” I think won’t make a big diff. low sRGB = colours less vibrant. I guess you need high sRGB? |

What about remanufactured ones? Been using consumer laptops since starting biz 2 years back and started failing eg laggy, crashes, etc despite using ori Win 10 & Office. Times are bad nowadays so I’m hunting for used instead but had bad experiences with refurbished ones. Recently I came across “remanufactured” enterprise grade laptops which is half the cost of its current model. Anyone tried before?

Given that many factories in China are off-line... it'll be difficult to give a time even by Lenovo themselves... especially with customised parts (build to as the order comes in..)... |
