    21-30k Refurbished ThinkPad X390 (or T480)

    I completely forgot about replying to this ;_; Did you try getting a replacement from Amazon? Or a warranty claim? The details under the quick specs say 7 days replacement and 1 year Warranty Care, so I wonder if those are good options as well?

    21-30k Refurbished ThinkPad X390 (or T480)

    Decent, but L490 is a full plastic body, so might have to be a little wary of the body becoming brittle. How much is the cost?

    21-30k Refurbished ThinkPad X390 (or T480)

    Most (if not all) modern X and X1 series have soldered RAM, that's pretty much the only way they could make such thin laptops. I looked at the X1C 6th and 7th Gens, the X280, and the X390, and all of them have fully soldered RAM. It used to be the case that the slim models would get one free...

    21-30k Refurbished ThinkPad X390 (or T480)

    Solid choice for the price if you ask me, especially with 16GB RAM. Soldered RAM is not so nice but in a laptop so light it feel it's worth the trade-off, ditto with the ethernet port. I don't think you can go wrong with the laptop itself, just make sure the seller is up to scratch

    Yeah even the T490 is the touch model. How many hours of battery are you getting out of it?

    @transform878 how has the laptop been so far? I also was looking to buy one from them but a T490 is 5K cheaper, so I'm most likely going to go for that

    41-50k Heavy Daily/Office-Type Use 14in Laptop With Some Light Gaming

    E14 Gen 5 AMD, the same specs as I posted above + another 8GB RAM Yeah I know. I recently bought an extra year of warranty + ADP for the whole two years for 7.5K. Lots of peace of mind now I haven't had any issues in my 4 months of ownership, but I did hear that the hinge mounts are made of...

    Laptops To Clean a ThinkPad

    I've been using a wet-dry flannel cloth for built-up dirt or marks on the screen (just wetting one corner and going ham with a finger), and it's working very well. I will try this next time

    Is there a comparative brand in 1:38? For those prices?

    Kinsmart in India?

    Yes, I saw those too. Very bizarre situation

    Kinsmart in India?

    I used to see a lot of Kinsmart models for really cheap here even up until a few months ago, even in a (generally barren) city like Visakhapatnam, but they've all suddenly disappeared? I remember seeing even quite new models like the C8 'Vette so the shipments seemed to be coming as normal, but...

    How in the hell did it not go for 700 that OP had to drop the price further. This is a steal and I'm kicking myself for not seeing it sooner

    Experiences with Sarvam Shop?

    @kalph09 @nRiTeCh He got it! My friend received the model just this morning! I was starting to get worried as they hadn't updated the order status on the website but my friend got the shipping info the very next day (as @kalph09 said) so I was a bit relieved. He got the model this morning, and...

    Do they have a website or a phone number? And have you inspected the unit by yourself?
