The toll free number. Yes
You have to call 1 day in advance before going there to do self-collect
They will call you once the parcel is ready for collecting

Cannot do self collect on the same day you call them

Normal. No manufacturer will entertain anything below 3 dead pixel
That's a different issue. ACER won't entertain you either if the issue was dead pixel and the quantity is below 3
Some brands even set a minimum of 5 dead pixel

I've got 8 units of ThinkBook 14 ordered on 17 November, still hasn't been shipped until today

*Corporate purchase & customized model

When did you place your order?

You can just remove the dummy drive and either install a 2.5" SATA HDD/SSD or an M.2 NVMe SSD
You have to choose one of them, can't have both

I myself installed a 1 x 512GB M.2 NVMe SSD & 1 x 1TB M.2 NVMe SSD on my younger brother's Legion 5

Make sure you call 1 day in advance before collecting
Can't collect on the same day

I think can, but UPS are just lazy to do it

Yes you can. But if you choose dual NVMe SSD setup, you will get a bigger battery of 80Wh vs the original 60Wh

Yup. But sadly, you can't mix and match. IE, 256GB NVMe + 1TB NVMe or 512GB NVMe + 1TB NVMe. Both has to be the same capacity
Also, make sure you pick M.2 2280. Not M.2 2242

Differences:
M.2 2242 - Doesn't have DRAM
M.2 2280 - Has DRAM

Taktau. Tanya la Lenovo

This promo code better than GIVINGUP?
Or GIVINGUP ady expired?

Cancel your order and re-order again using GIVINGUP
I've just tested, GIVINGUP gives higher discount than DEC1212

Send an email to mycs@lenovo.com
They will proceed to cancel your order but will ask you several time though to confirm that you want to cancel the order

What are you going to use it for?
T14 for studies? A waste of money I would say
To me, ThinkPad & ThinkBook is more suited for working-class people

I would advise you to go for Legion 5 instead
Yeah it's heavy, but it's also heavy-duty which you can use not just for studying, you can also use it for gaming as well

And the cooling power of the Legion 5 is leaps and bounds better than any ThinkPad / ThinkBook

You worry too much about the battery life
The original 60wH battery is enough, it's just that the 80wH battery even longer battery life, that's all
Ofcourse you can't expect long battery life when you game LOL. Normal usage should last you around 4 hours, depending on the specs you get
My younger brother played Netflix on his laptop and it pass 5 hours before the battery dipped to 5%
The model that I bought for him is with Ryzen 5 4600H + GTX 1650 (non-Ti). Ryzen 7 4800H + GTX 1650 Ti / GTX 1660 Ti / RTX 2060 would last even shorter ofcourse

Yes, onsite warranty is very important both for personal & commercial use
Even more so when you are a student, you don't want your laptop to be down for a very long time right?
With onsite warranty, you just have to call Lenovo helpline, state your issue, follow the troubleshooting guide by Lenovo, then if the troubleshooting guide by Lenovo fails, they will send their engineer on the next working day

Without onsite warranty, you will have to send the laptop to Lenovo service center and wait between 14 ~ 30 working days for them to repair it
Even worse if they don't have the stock for the replacement part, you might have to wait up to 60 days

Tax invoice will only be released once your laptop is shipped out
If you choose those pre-built units with "Shipped out within 3 - 6 business days", then you will definitely be able to get the invoice by this year

If you do a custom order, definitely won't get the invoice by this year lah

GIVINGUP promo code is dead

Yeah, just tested that too. Wonder how long it will last

Cannot be used on Legion 5

Don't believe the delivery date
UPS China & UPS Singapore works fast
But UPS Malaysia is crap. Go back a few pages and you'll see how many people got their laptop delayed stuck at UPS Shah Alam warehouse for several days

If you're in Klang / Shah Alam, I suggest you to request for self collection at the UPS warehouse in Shah Alam
**You can only do self collect 1 day after you call them to request for self collect. Cannot self collect on the same day you call them

Mine lagi teruk. Now all 5 of my orders for a total of 16 ThinkBook 14 has become like the image below:
The original expected to ship date was 31 December 2020
