Surface go 35/13/2023 And I don't know any tools that Thinkpads have, to quickly change these things from within Windows, you always have to go into the BIOS to change it. I wish this setting had more granularity though, but it's either 50% or 100%. There is an option in the BIOS to limit battery charge level to 50%, which is great, so hopefully the battery won't be shot in a couple of years time from sitting fully charged all the time. And the whole chassis stays cool to the touch. And I mean absolutely zero fan noise (at least on the 15 inch Intel i7 cpu version that I have). The machine is completely silent during web browsing, watching movies and general use. They made me realise how the speakers in our Thinkpads (X200 and T60) are. The speakers are AMAZING, and incredibly loud too. The trackpad is great too, large and has a nice smooth surface. In the dark it will be great though, as it has backlight. It's fine for anyone with good eyesight, not sure how annoying it will be for my mother. Also legends on the silver keycaps are not nearly as visible as white legends on black keycaps. I don't like the layout though (I am used to the old standard IBM layout). I think with a short travel keyboard like this they have achieved the best feel physically possible here. The keyboard has a very shallow travel, but the actuation is surprisingly nice, it's soft and quiet without being mushy. My mother uses her computer in the house only, so this shouldn't be a problem for her. The screen also has great colours, but extremely reflective, so would be quite useless in outdoor environments. The 3:2 aspect ratio screen is not quite 4:3 good (my preference), but this is the best available aspect ratio at the moment. I am actually quite impressed with this laptop. I bought this laptop for my mother, who still uses a Thinkpad X200, but due to her ageing eyes she has been longing after a bigger and more vivid screen. It's mainly visual, the machine functions perfectly fine. I recently managed to buy a Microsoft Surface laptop 4 15 inch for a reasonable price, as it has a dent on the lid.
