Lenovo’s New ThinkPads Score 10/10 for Repairability - Lemmy

And yet still not as serviceable/durable as older ThinkPads. They don’t even have water spouts in the keyboard/chassis like the older ones. One could dump a beverage on the keyboard on the older models and it would route through the keyboard->chassis->even the docks had water routing ports so it would just keep traveling mostly harmless through to underneath.

Nor batteries externally removable like used to be.

Not a bad step though by any means, and great to see this return to user-serviceability.

I fix lenovos on a pretty regular basis and still see water spouts on some models (assuming you’re referring to the plastic coverings over components), primarily the T-series
