    I had a look at their 2 in 1 and high end Thinkpads and it looks like they all have the same IPS anti glare screen. I have no idea what they are called but I like the shiny screens that are super clear.

    • OpayuOnam on 02/11/2023 - 04:43
      +6

      All none touch ThinkPads will be matte/anti-reflective (and should stay that way), this is because these are business laptops and need to be able to work in any light condition, the gloss screens you refer to are horrible to use outdoor or in office lighting conditions.

      I've never had an issue with clarity on on the matte screens, they are super clear and colours look great, but then I've always had higher end machines (T/P/X1) so not sure if this applies across the board.

      If you get a touchscreen they will (usually) have a glass with an anti-reflective coating which is semi shiny.

      • Maxdax on 02/11/2023 - 05:06

        I’m using one of these machines and can’t complain w.r.t clarity and Color’s

          That's colour reproduction, the 45% will look washed out compared to 100%.

          also this touchscreen is not the shiny type, it's matte.

          I'd pick the touch, the 45% is bad..

          • ozmarketersdream on 02/11/2023 - 23:38

            @OpayuOnam: Thanks for the info. Like many people I am looking for a school laptop but I don't want my kid squinting etc to see whats on the screen.

            • OpayuOnam on 03/11/2023 - 05:59

              @ozmarketersdream: It won't be a squint to see the text.
              45% is very much usable for majority of school tasks.

              But if you'd child uses it for media consumption they will appreciate it.
              Lastly the touch can be a useful addition from time to time.
              Comes down to the price.
              is say it's worth about $150 more, $200 max, but nothing more than that, as then you can cross shop better laptops.

    Hi All, does this laptop get noisy? I have a Thinkpad L13 Yoga Gen 3 from work and it gets noisy for basic excel stuff.

  • davidl820 on 02/11/2023 - 12:01

    What size do you normally buy for kids to use in school?

    I started with looking at ThinkPad E14 but then thought it might be too small so took another step up to look at Thinkbook 15, but it might become too heavy (probably adds another 200g -250g) ?

    • amaslam on 02/11/2023 - 14:08

      14 inch screen for kids. The next standard size is 15.6 inch. This one is a 16 inch so will definitely be a 'chonky' one for the schoolkids.

      If you're OK with used the Dells in 14 inch work well for school use. Usually the 7390 and 7490 models ($250-350) models but if you want new whatever the equivalent one is now for around $1000. If you're OK with a screwdriver you can upgrade RAM on these and I usually put in an additional 8 GB (bringing total to 16 GB).

      • tinx on 02/11/2023 - 15:00

        Any suggestion for 14 inch touch screen for yr 7? With good battery life.

        School recommend the following
        1. Lenovo ThinkPad L13 Yoga Gen 4 – 13.3", Core i5, 16GB
        $1,464.99

        1. Lenovo 500w Yoga Gen 4 – 12.2" N200 8GB 256GB
          $990.99

        Thinking to buy second hand older model of lenovo yoga. Or is dell better brand ? Or any suggestion with brand and model.

        How much is battery replacement usually? Is there any knock off version?

          My kid's school had a similar recommendation.
          Do NOT buy Yoga. Some of my kid's schoolmates bought it and have constant issues with overhearing and throttling.

          Luckily I've bought one of those. Great battery life, good screen. Survived almost 3 years of not best care from my son.
          Was cheaper back then though.

          Touchscreen laptops are generally pretty fragile. Does it need to be a touchscreen model?

          • tinx on 03/11/2023 - 08:32

            @stephendt: Yes. Apparently the math app uses touch screen to write the formulas

      • davidl820 on 02/11/2023 - 18:25

        Thanks, The school had a basic spec requirement and no larger than 15.6 inch for the size so definitely no this one but it sounds like 14 inch will do the work .
        May I ask where do you usually buy the used laptop from?

  • amaslam on 02/11/2023 - 15:54

    The 12.2 inch screen is a bit small but I find the 13.3 inch screen size just right.

    I recently bought the Yoga 370 (13.3 inch touchscreen) second hand and I'm liking it alot. Works smooth with 8 GB and Win11 Pro but I am upping the RAM to 16 GB (~$60) to keep it useful for longer. The other thing I tend to do is replace the battery. It's fairly simple as it's usually 2-3 screws and one cable. Just be careful getting the cable out. Batteries these days I'm seeing in the $70 range (knockoff - I use laptopbatterydirect). But before upping the battery do a a test to see if it'll do 5 hours at least. My cutoff for replace or not tends to be 5-6 hours of battery doing normal things (maybe run 2 hours of YouTube and then have a bunch of Chrome tabs open and kids playing Roblox for 2 hours. If it's still up at the end of that should be good for a school day. The Yoga had a backlit keyboard which is useful if the lights are dim in the school.

    For the brands I've had Lenovo, HP and Dell. I like Lenovo and Dell the same and a bit less positive on HP (their screens mainly). The right way to frame this is that these would be your work computer from 2018, which for office types tasks is perfectly fine even today. The schools tend to use Google so if you have Chrome and sufficient RAM almost anything can run their stuff. Also the kids will have access to free MS and Adobe software so that should run just fine as well. If there is something that will be slower than a modern laptop I'd say its video editing but that's all I can think of.

    • tinx on 02/11/2023 - 17:42

      Thank you for detailed info! I wasn't expecting kid's laptop cost more than mine (I'm using second hand MacBook 2013 lol)

  • buffalo bill on 04/11/2023 - 08:22

    Thanks OP, bought one. Great final price of $728.42 with CR.

      • buffalo bill on 05/11/2023 - 09:05
        +1

        I believe you can use any retail Win 10/11 Pro key - not OEM - to upgrade the version to Pro.

        It does get discussed on here a bit. but you can find keys on the net. If you use your lappy for work, your IT dept might provide one. It's not really necessary to use Pro for home use - but I don't like the Home edition as much because it does not come with some data security features and is missing some organisational network tools.

      Same laptop but comes with Windows 11 Pro (not Home) in that deal. The deal with Win Home was over $100 cheaper and combined with Cashrewards it got OzBargained/sold out.

    Bought an E14 in 2019, the specs looked good on the paper (the same like this one) but everything is china brand/made in china (RAM, SDD, Wireless, Battery) in which they under performance compared to other globe brands. The computer is much slower than the specs would suggest, and the worst part is the BATTERY, did not upto spec at all and die just over 1 year.

    • bobokingdom on 12/11/2023 - 11:18

      Lenovo use components from different manufacturers, Qualcomm, Intel, AMD, Toshiba, etc. Most of them will be Made in China because that's how supply chain works. There is no difference to other manufacturers, like Apple. As for batteries , they are cover under warranty, or you can buy extended warranty as they are consumable items.

        Ps, if anyone can help me understand how realise the Cash rewards on this (and other deals), I'd appreciate it. I have an account but couldn't figure out what to do on with it on the Lenovo website checkout.

          Log in to CR with your account (on website or in App) and search for Lenovo then click on it, this way you are linked to Lenovo via CR and they will be able to track your click history.

          I am not sure if it's still a thing that, you need to clear your cart before above mentioned moves otherwise the purchase may not be tracked… I did this every time though.

          You should be able to get an notification within an hour placing the order.

            @davidl820: Thanks David, I appreciate your help. I tried entering from CR (after emptying Lenovo cart) as you suggested but it didn't work for me: I got the same price as Lenovo advertised, ie $957. Not such a big deal since CR had dropped from 16% to 3%, but I'll keep trying to figure CR out in case there's a meaningful saving to be had in future.

              @intybe: That's right you pay full price ( or the price after discount code, providing the code is acceptable by Cashrwrard or Shopback) at checkout. The cashback will only become available (between days and months) after the purchase. Once the reward becomes withdrawal-able you can then make them transfer to your nominated bank account.

              Shopback now has 13% cashback if you want to go through them.

              • intybe on 16/11/2023 - 09:37

                @davidl820: Thanks heaps, David. Ok, I think I get it now. And it's clear at the time of purchase (on the invoice?) that you are getting the cashback reward, right?

                Ps, I don't have a Shopback account but "Invite a Friend" suggests you'll get $40 if you refer me. One good turn deserves another, right?! 🥰😍🤑

                  @intybe: No it won't be on the invoice, you will get a separate notification from Cash Rewards. Lenovo/the seller is not directly involved in the cashback.

                  • intybe on 17/11/2023 - 11:53

                    @larndis: Appreciate your reply, Landis. Please excuse my ignorance - I'm knew to this and don't want to get caught out, especially when it potential saving will be hundreds of dollars if I buy with a 12-16% cashback offer - but how do you know that the cashback and expected percentage has been applied? Do you just have to trust whichever cashback service I go through to buy the laptop to give me the cashback deal/ refund sometime later?
