Of course lah....

That samseng guy ownself don’t understand the fast charging standards used on his NOTE10 go blame Ugreen, really face palm...

That Ugreen charger is a USB PD charger. It can support devices that (fast) chargeable by USB PD like Macs/iPads/iPhones/sony/ultrabooks.

Samsung ownself like to be dumb and use their own proprietary fast charging, don’t go blame Ugreen for that.

Nowadays still have many own brands fanboys,
They can’t accept other Brand’s to used on he/she devices.

For me I will try out all those after marketed products ,
Just one thing I’m poor can’t meet TOMEI-R level yet.
He got the most expensive Innergie 60W Pd charger. 😆😆😆

Very mini size comes with travel adapter.
*
60W is 5 watts short of typical 65W wattage for the laptops though...

BTW, good to see USB PD making progresses.

ZMI updated their 45W powerbank to 65W. And many other less known brands are making 100W powerbank for cheap.

Looking for 13s. Can inform Why u guys buy 13s. The real benefits. Like durability, efficiency, etc

RM1013-RM58.87(from shopback) for an i5 laptop with 3 years pro warranty, a cheapo mouse, a cheapo bag and 10,000 Bigpoints (yet gotten mine though, just checked and it’s in my account already, I gotten more Bigpoints from this offer than buying flight tickets with my hard cold cash for the past 5 years, KEK), is that sufficient as the reasons/arguments for you? laugh.gif

If not for the RM1k price, the device alone is still quite an interesting piece of ultrabook (nice form factor, nice finishes, decent screen and keyboards) which many other devices in the same price (retail) segment can’t offer.

But again, the max I would pay for it is probably RM2k-2.2k, as it don’t have a discrete GPU and don’t have native USB-PD charging.

So far only this PowerBank is interesting but will need a slim tip converter if wanna charge thinkbook 13s
*
Lenovo do have official slim-tip to PD adapter.

Else you can opt for 3rd party like what I done with my L340. Lenovo don’t have official SKU for 4mm pin to PD like the slim-tip does (though they do offer it with their 1400mah power bank like Benefon shown before). I opted for a 3rd party generic 5525 to PD then adapt again to the Lenovo 4mm pin.

As long as you know what you’re doing and the wattage or voltage well, it shall work well.

I tot by default thinkbook 13s own adapter is 65w can pd 45w be used?
*
Practically yes, cause the model we’re getting is without GPU, 45W is more than enough to power it and charge it at the same time. In fact that’s why I’m favouring AMD Ryzen APU models over Intel+discrete GPU; cause AMD APU can fit everything under the 45W limits, why Intel+discrete of similar performance will still run on 65W.

But one thing I don’t like to use under wattage charger adapter is the annoying pop-up when your laptop detected its insufficient to what it’s rated defaultly.

The Xiaomi3 pro is actually 40W on USB PD, so my previous Dell ultrabook with 45W adapter keep on popping out the annoying popouts...

LOL, SG got.
https://www.lenovo.com/sg/en/accessories-an...er/p/4X90U45346

If the currency is MYR, I still can consider. But that’s SGD, LOLOLOLOL...

P/S: and its only rated for 45W, while my cheapo Taobao adapter can support up to 100W.

But that display is awful though.
Can customize the display?
And l340 build quality cannot compare with thinkpad.

Yes, the only thing it’s good is the price, LOL.

I bought the Ryzen5 model for RM1.6k (but have shopback RM200+ pending).

Add on a stick of 8GB RAM (do remember to to configure the onboard 4GB RAM, as it’s soldered and no way to add if you didn’t configure it at stock), I basically gotten a decent performing laptops for RM1.5k. Also do remember to upgrade for FHD screen and 256GB SSD as the default options sucks even more.

And what’s sweeter is I’m able to redeem the merdeka offer back then for a free copy of Microsoft Office H&S.

His statement is a little confusing. He’s basically talking about 2 laptops. One is T495s at RM3k++. Another is L340 at RM2k+/-.

Question based on what seller says does this plug works on Lenovo 13s?

Should work, but workmanship and built quality of it may not be too good.

That is the cheapest generic Type-C PD adapter out there.

In China, they called it "PD诱骗" (PD baiting), the tech and logic behind is nothing rocket science, but you will hope to invest one with better component quality and workmanship.

Ugreen give discount every big sales.

But similar to Lenovo, their lowest prices are generally around a fixed range. Though sometimes they force you to buy a bundle of few items to achieve the lowest price.

I need something that could be abused for work 10+ hours per day so its either T or X series only but then i read reddit users saying E series also almost the same except for the cheaper material and plastic body so i take E495.

Hope it can last me 4-5 years

Apart from the input peripherals like trackpad, keyboard or the parts subjected to abuse like hinges, the hardwares durability are mostly on the luck of draw.

Should had gotten L340 (AMD). I gotten mine 2 weeks before I gotten my T13s, and its a deal pretty much half way as nice as the T13s.

I paid RM1.6k for a Ryzen 5 + 256GB SSD + 4GB soldered RAM (needed for dual channel memory on these models) and FHD (TN though) screen, and it comes with cashback of RM200+ (still pending) and redemption for a copy of free microsoft office home and student (worth another RM200+).

Try negotiate with them if can cancel the order and place a new one for L340 (AMD). You can get about the same price as what I get, all be it the SSD size now is only 128GB (but it has NVME option for cheap now as compared to when I ordered mine) and no more free microsoft office redemption.

Quickly try contact the CS if they can help you nuke your previous order. L340 wins in almost all aspects vs the Ideapad S145. It have Type-C port, a webcam shutter and also a DVD reader (can use as additional SSD bay).
