For the price and specs on a ThinkPad, something has got to give. And if it is the WiFi, then can consider changing it. Worst case just get an external one and leave the internal one in case you want to lug it out.

E series is always budget laptop. L is another low budget laptop series.

The real higher end business laptops are X followed by T series.

Price is right for a budget laptop. Nothing to shout about other than the AMD X-factor here.

Is the speed for this kind of SSD fast?

How come the battery life of the smaller E485 is less than that of he E585, when both use the same 3-cell 45Wh battery?

I doubt they will use a Samsung SSD for a budget laptop. At this price range, it could be a Liteon SSD.

I have a LiteOn M.2 SSD in a laptop. Two years later, slow until i thought my mouse got problem never click the folder properly, turns out its just damn slow :s13:. Terrible, would not recommend.

I am just speculating cause I did not buy this ThinkPad. I only suspect they may use the likes of Liteon since it is a common OEM brand.

Most manufacturer won't add in a speedy SSD because of $.
If they add in Samsung SSD, the overall price will jack up a fair bit.
They usually use cheap SSD brand like LiteOn, Toshiba.

Sandisk also very rare seriously, even if they use Sandisk it
will be X series which is intended for OEM market
and low power type not speed.

My Dell G3 is using Sandisk X600, not a speedy drive but
it is decent enough.
As for WIFI, it's a E series Thinkpad which means budget.

Unlike T series you won't have option for better WIFI
or even LTE.
Take note if this E series sell well, maybe they will sell the
A series.

A series will be the premium version like last time there was
E475 and A475.

The laptop did not come with the mouse and case? If not, did they put down how long is the shipping?

Just ordered one too. Thanks

Ya, they ship separately, you can track your order from the email. It takes about a week or 2.

Dont expect top quality for such a price. I think the specs are good enough for the price.
