the most shocking thing about having a new thinkpad though is that the lenovo companion app ("Vantage") is actually not *too* terrible, ending a solid decade of the thing becoming more and more awful (most notoriously the previous "modern" app, which replaced a decrepit ibm thingy, but just didn't function at all). not that one needs it, but there are a few features that don't hurt. i like the battery charge limit settings despite them likely being of dubious value.

The contrast of the super smooth light X1 yoga with the humongous five+ port dongle brick everyone has hanging off of it always makes me chuckle.

i have an og thinkpad yoga from 2014 because As A Professor And Also A Designer i actually do use the drawing on screen stuff fairly regularly, but gently caress getting a surface because i need a real keyboard. thinkpads still have the best kbs on the market it is getting long in the tooth (screen is getting scratched and i really need more ram) but it is a great laptop. when it finally gives up the ghost i think i will get another yoga carbon or whatever is current.

nah that's the same for me too. apple ones feel "slow" for some reason i have a thinkpad with the "worst" trackpad (the one with no buttons where the whole thing moves down) and i like it just fine. it's smoother than apple ones, which i really don't like the feel of, and i like the more positive click than the teeny apple *tic* although when you set it to max it's okay. what i really miss is when trackpads had that pattern of little dots. something about that just felt better e: this  make that pattern on the size of a modern one and

i mean, there are two obvious downsides mbp fans ought to know when considering the x1c (same largely holds for all thinkpad x/t's) 1. you will likely hate the trackpad. i find it functions fine (precision trackpad, so largely the same as an xps one), but it is not least *tiny*, so if you're used to a mbp i doubt you'd find that acceptable 2. the build is very different from a mbp. they are extremely durable, but if you really enjoy the unyielding solidity of the metal construction the relative flex of carbon fiber may feel cheap can't say i fault anyone for feeling either one is a dealbreaker, pretty drat expensive stuff to not be happy about it

window coputer trackpads all seem like poo poo and maybe sagedork's wrong ideas are based on having to adapt for a day to a different acceleration curve??? the nub on legit ibm thunk pads (well a t42 maybe i dunno cause that was 1000 years ago) was gr8, and because they can serve different purposes I would love to have one on my macsbooks professional alongside the actually working touch pad but uhhh, PC computer inputs ? farts

iirc the t480/t480s dont have glass trackpads while the x1 carbons do the getaway is: get an x1 carbon
