I just hoot a Thinkpad P70. My cousin will bring it to Spore for me.

Paid USD1500 or about S$2150. The P50 here is already going for S$3500.

i configured the P70 at Lenovo singapore online store and it comes up to $9K+ after some discount, 8k+. I configure it at US online store. after adding in shipping, gst and exchangre rate conversion, about $7k sgd . price difference is a whopping $1k :eek: can get your cousin to ship one back for me? =:p

Wow! What's your specs that you configured. Mine is the base model. I don't mind selling you my set first for S$4000. I've installed 32gb Kingston Hyper X RAM and Samsung 512gb Nvie M.2 SSD. PM me your number if you are keen. =:p

W520 battery -- 6 Cell vs 9 Cell

Hi guys,

Been a long time since I last visited this thread. LOL...

Looks like it may be time for me to get 1 or 2 sets of new battery for the laptop.

Currently using 9 Cell (the protruding one), and its only lasting like at most 2 hours on a full charge.

Thinking of getting 2x 6 Cell ones to rotate (minus the bulge behind!)

Lenovo Think Service centre still at Changi South? or is it now at Kaki Bukit? Anywhere else I can get the battery?

Thanks.

I got a Thinkpad 13. New model for Jun 2016.

Is it normal that the 4 rubber feet are slippery. Meaning that when I place the laptop on a table, I can actually push the laptop around the table?

Anyone placed orders from Lenovo's website recently? How quick do they ship normally?

Does anyone know if the x260"s touted 21 hours is with the full hd screen or just hd?

If just the hd , then what's the battery life for the full hd?

Also does swapping the hdd void warranty?

I don't have facts and figures with me, but my guess is 21 hours is for the HD screen.

Swapping hdd should not void the warranty. I don't remember seeing any sticker pasted over the hdd or base cover of the laptop on my old X series.

My 2 cents worth.
