ThinkPad x220 vs x230 vs x250

which?

I prefer the nostalgia of the cute keyboard light instead of a backlit keyboard, so it's x220 for me

b-b-but x230 has thinklight too

X220 has the best keyboard

which combines both?:
>most lightweight
>most quiet/non-hot

I looking into buying a Thinkpad, but I didn't know the x220 keyboard had lights in it. Can you find me pictures of it?
I have no experience besides de SL410 models that we have at work, I thought all Thinkpad keyboards were the same.

newer means botth of those

>Can you find me pictures of it?
are you serious?

I don't know, user, do you want to spend $175, $250, or $400?
Bonus: if you hate technological progress and cling to old features and ideals, buy the cheap, slow one.

the x220 keyboard does not have lights, there's a little light called thinklight near the webcam that illuminates it

x230 on the other hand comes with a thinklight and/or a backlit keyboard

i dont want mine to get stolen. new features are awesome but cheap price + cheap look = good.

x230 also has the cute keyboard light retard, it isn't backlit

Just got a x230, and its fucking small

it's backlit and also has the thinklight so you can choose either

you don't know small until you have a x120e

oh sorry
didn't know that

x220t master r ace

x200 because you can install libreboot

Well I use x201. Didn't know the x220 is so popular. Any particular reason other than the CPU is a bit better than x201?

This. It's got the swivel swagger

Anyone knows if it's possible to buy an en-us Thinkpad and install a foreign keyboard on it? Will it work? It's way cheaper to import a used Thinkpad than buy one here.

X230 with X220 keyboard

IPS screen option, longer battery life, m2 SSD, much more powerful graphics

X270

>fall for the thinkpad meme
>order refurb x220 from jewegg because eBay Canada has nothing and fuck buying from US over eBay
>gets delivered
>perfect condition works great
>suddenly one day 2 weeks later

>try every troubleshooting trick in the book
>google for days
>try literally everything to ressurrect the fucker

>send it back to jewegg
>week later
>different x220 arrives
>IPS and fingerprint scanner
>even more perfect condition
>never use it because scared it will break too

I have an x220t with a broken keyboard and underwhelming specs. What SSD, RAM, etc., do I get? I don't want to buy a new laptop. I'd rather upgrade a couple of components and get a new keyboard and battery

Yeah, that's like the third time you posted that story on Sup Forums.

Is there a need for a different kb layout? I swear I don't even know what's my kb layout. Some odd characters.

Theres a letter and a few signs in my localized keyboard that do not exist in en-us keyboards, to type those you need do make unintuitive key combinations, making it a pain in the ass to type long ass texts in them. My current notebook is a Chromebook that I brought from Ameriland and I hate typing on it even tho I'm used to it by now.

>swivel swagger
what's that

X230
>thinklight
>lots of keyboard options ranging from non backlit chiclet to backlit chiclet and even the classic keyboard.
>good cpu with very capable igpu. Randy bridge has house fire igpu that can't run shit and broadwell ulvs, while better than haswell still suck shit compared to Ivy Bridge
>magnesium roll cage
The biggest down side is that the x230 like the x220 has an ass cancer 1366x768 screen with the 1080p screen being almost impossible to get

The x230 has this too

All of these

Enjoy your shit hinge and less battery life

>core2duo
Might as well get the x250 at this point

Yes. Drop in part

Nice meme!

It means it's got a shit hinge

T420 or bust

Meme thinkpad
Literally beaten out by T430

Go back to tpg and I'll tell your friendo

Did you think of that yourself or did your caretaker help you
Fucking retarded summerfag

X220 is right out since X230 can use the x220 keyboard
