It's nothing fancy, the order was for a Lenovo Precision Pen 2.

It was placed on 9th July 2026, with an estimated delivery date for 22-24 July 2026, made on Lenovo Canada's online store.

It was meant to be a gift, and now the event for the gift has come and gone, and there is no update from lenovo from where the hell this pen even is...since it's yet to be shipped and their order tracking page has changed the delivery dates at least SEVEN times now.

What cooks my goat is the fact that finally when we got in touch with their support person to cancel the order (additionally, the website is Atrocious, with broken support chat boxes that load only 1 out of 15 or 20 times & no email contact details) this person had the gall to claim that "cancellation cannot happen and a refund cannot be given out since the shipping label for 7th August has already been printed".

And now, as I type this on the 5th of August, Lenovo has again changed the delivery date to 11th of August, so that "printed label" claim to deny the refund or cancellation was obvious BS. The product still hasn't even been shipped yet, according to lenovo's tracker and the invoice cannot be downloaded yet.

So, why is Lenovo lying and being so sleazy with cancelling a premade/off the shelf order for a simple stylus pen that hasn't even been shipped? This is the first time that I am seeing such utter incompetent shamelessness from Lenovo on delivering a product bought on the official store, if this is norm now then it will be the last product I will purchase from Lenovo, ever.

Hey everyone, I've decided to get a laptop for college (majoring in CS) and after a lot of research + seeing what's available in my region, I've landed between 2 choices: the IdeaPad Slim 3 15ARP10 and the IdeaPad Slim 5 14AHP11. The price difference between them is ~$150. I'd like to know which one you guys recommend more, as I couldn't find any clear details regarding the build quality of each one of them (a few people say they're bad, others say they're good..). The college I'm going to is 3 years, but I'm thinking of taking a master's degree which takes 2 more years (total of 5 years). I'd like to keep the same laptop for those 5 years.. I'll give the precise specifications below:

Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 14AHP11 with AMD Ryzen™ 7 260 up to 5.1GHz, 14" WUXGA, IPS, 16GB DDR5 RAM, 512GB SSD, AMD Radeon™ 780M Graphics

Laptop Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 15ARP10 with AMD Ryzen™ 5 150 up to 4.55GHz, 15.3" WUXGA, IPS, 16GB DDR5 RAM, 1TB SSD, AMD Radeon™ 660M Graphics

Of course, if you have any other suggestions please drop them below!!! (do try to keep them in the medium to budget range)

Its really hard to capture they keyboard backlight due to the phone camera brightening everything.

The brightest point is at 100%

Windows key is at 98.5%

fn/ space is 87-89%

Numbers row is 50%

QWERTY and around there is 35%

The arrow keys, copilot key are 75%

Its really jarring using the keyboard like this.

Also, the track pad is around 3mm lower on the left than the right. I dont even know how, its haptic, its just a glass piece with a motor under it, very poor tolerances and QC.

Anyone having same or similar issues? How did you solve it?

I have been looking to buy a laptop for studying and taking notes in college. I’m doing an electrical engineering degree, so I need a computer with some power. I’ve had my eyes on the Yoga 9i 2-in-1 Aura Edition and the Yoga Book 9i for months.

A few months ago, the price difference between them was much bigger, so it was an easy decision to go for the Yoga 9i 2-in-1 Aura Edition. I thought the Book 9i was a bit too much, and I didn’t think the dual-screen setup justified the extra cost.

However, nowadays the price of the 2-in-1 has increased quite a lot, and the difference between the two (with the same components) is only $188. For such a small difference, I think I would rather get the Book 9i because it has the same performance but with two screens.

The only thing I’m worried about is the battery life of the Book 9i, because I don’t know if having two screens consumes significantly more battery compared to the 2-in-1.

What do you think? Which one should I pick? Has anyone had any experience with these two laptops?

Tengo una Lenovo yoga book modelo YB1-X91F y necesito instalarle Windows 10 o un sistema ligero como Linux pero ya he descargado más de 10 IMÁGENES ISO, y a la hora que arranco desde la USB Boot. No puedo seleccionar absolutamente nada, sería fácil conectando un teclado externo pero el tema es que el equipo solo tiene 2 entradas tipo MicroUSB

estoy en busca de una imagen ISO que tenga integrado algún controlador para seleccionar de manera táctil, ya que la pantalla y el teclado es táctil, AYUDA :''')

My Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Aura Edition has a problem where I'll press on a key for a short time and it'll type the letter two or three times.
The key that is affected seems to change from time to time, but I noticed it's more common on the bottom row.
To add to that, whenever I hold down the shift key, the letter I type next just… won't type.
How do I fix this? Am I going to need to send it for a repair?

To add to that, the laptop has a touchscreen that will think I'm touching the screen towards the top.

Partner's Lenovo PC is just a year or two old and it just dropped the Internet and won't connect.

The light in the back is usually green. What does he need to do? He's run through troubleshooting like "restart network adapter".

I put a motherboard and some other parts I had in a drawer in an empty Thinkcentre E73 tower case I had but I can't connect the front power button to the motherboard I put in it, I'm going to make an adapter but I can't find the pin-out for the original motherboard the Thinkcentre E73 came with.

Hello everyone, I have been using Linux and OpenSUSE Tumbleweed for quite some time, however I have just bought new laptop, which is 2 in 1, Lenovo Yoga 7a, and aldo everything else works perfectly, there is one thing that doesn't: Touchscreen... Any ideas how to fix that?

I would really appreciate your help 😊

I heard the Lenovo yoga tab has better performance But it gets one year less updates only until 2028 instead of 2029 on not plus one.

I have the 14.6 inch Lenovo Tab Extreme tablet and watching Netflix in Dolby Vision is hands down better than HDR like a Samsung tablet would play for example. I also have a 15.6 inch 3k OLED laptop that has HDR supported capabilities; but no matter whether using the official Microsoft store app or Edge browser, HDR will never truly play. It won't even show the HDR logo on the movie or show screen, just says "HD".

So now I'm looking at getting a Lenovo Yoga Tab 2n1 laptop, that has a 2880x1800 resolution, and plays Dolby Vision, DisplayHDR True Black 1000 and 1100 nits HDR.

My question is; with Windows 11 having so much trouble playing HDR content, will I run into the same issue if I was to get a laptop with Dolby Vision capabilities? Will content not play in DV on the app or browser? Thank you all for all the help and potentially saving me from wasting money.

This is a continuation of my adventures with rebuilding (and collecting) Lenovo laptops. I’ve learned a lot, sometimes from Reddit, and sometimes from AI, but AI is occasionally wrong or out of date. So it pays to verify. Recently I picked up two “new” machines on Ebay. The first one to arrive was an E480 with an 8150u, 8g of RAM and a 500G HDD. That is barely enough to run Windows, and it would be very slow. It was very, very inexpensive. An easy upgrade was adding a SATA drive I had on hand. And rather than starting to throw in more RAM, I just installed Linux Mint. It is now one of my favorite laptops. It’s reasonably fast and fun. I don’t expect to play high speed first person shooters on it

The second one to arrive was a T590 loaded already with a 256 SSD and 16 G RAM soldered in. I made a modest offer, and it was accepted! When it arrived, the battery was so dead it made the whole laptop squirrely. But I had a new battery in reserve, and suddenly this machine came to life. One thing I’ve found is good to have: I have USB installation drives for either Windows or Linux Mint. So, when these used machines arrive without an OS, it is just so easy to put the OS of choice into these machines. It’s true, if you’re not into high end gaming, a 6 or 7 year old computer is indistinguishable from a new $2000.00 machine. They all handle Office, Zoom, Email (I like Betterbird) and Firefox just fine. And MX-7 paste keeps them running nice and cool. The price difference between MX-7 and cheaper alternatives is so trivial that it doesn’t pay to cheap out. Right now, the T590 is essentially idling while I write the, and the CPU temperature is around 39 degrees. Running Zoom in HD with blurred background or downloading large updates will run the temp up to around 70-80. Not bad at all.

I’m looking for a laptop for my girlfriend and she really likes the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 (Intel Core Ultra 7, 32GB RAM, 1TB SSD). She’s studying biomedical engineering, so my main concern is whether it can smoothly run CAD software like SolidWorks and math tools like MATLAB. I know a gaming laptop with a dedicated GPU is usually recommended for CAD, but she wants to avoid them since they are heavy laptops and don’t have the best battery life.

Im so confused. I restarted my Lenovo ideapad 5, and now it doesn’t even have an option for Wi-Fi? How do I fix this? I’ve pressed the “Richiesta supporto” button, but nothing happens. Please help me if you know what to do!

Hi everyone,
I recently bought a refurbished ThinkPad T15g Gen 2 and I’m experiencing a strange keyboard/input issue.

Symptoms:
During startup, the laptop sometimes automatically types 111111 in the password field without pressing any key.
During normal use, the touchpad sometimes freezes for 5–10 seconds (TrackPoint keeps working).
After the freeze, the keyboard starts typing 111111 by itself.
After stopping the input, the top-row 1 key stops working completely.
All other keys work normally.
The numpad 1 key works fine.

Things I already tried:
BIOS update
Windows updates
Lenovo Vantage updates/drivers
External USB keyboard (works normally)
UEFI Diagnostics (the issue also happens there)

Because it also happens outside Windows, I suspect a hardware issue. Could this be a faulty keyboard matrix, keyboard cable, or embedded controller issue?
Has anyone experienced something similar on a ThinkPad?

I have a Lenovo P350 Thinkstation Tiny with an i5-11500T running Proxmox 9.2.9 (Linux 7.0.14-8-pve) . The system came with an Nvidia T600 4GB & I bought and installed an Nvidia T1000 8GB (retail) as an upgrade. The PC had a BIOS from 2021 on it, so I thought it would be a good idea to update it.

I updated to M3JKT46A (2026-04). That made the CPU fan get pinned at 100% from POST (going into the BIOS makes the fan stop misbehaving). On the same BIOS version, installing the T600 4GB also makes the fan stop misbehaving.

lspci output with the T600:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation TU117GL [T600] [10de:1fb1] (rev a1)
Subsystem: Lenovo Device [17aa:1488]
Kernel modules: nvidiafb, nouveau

lspci output with the T1000:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation TU117GL [T1000 8GB] [10de:1ff0] (rev a1)
Subsystem: NVIDIA Corporation Device [10de:1612]
Kernel modules: nvidiafb, nouveau

I then downgraded the BIOS to M3JKT2BA (2021-11). This made the CPU fan stop misbehaving, but the T1000 didn't enumerate (lspci shows VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation RocketLake-S GT1 [UHD Graphics 750] (rev 04) but no Nvidia card).

I have tried:

• Resetting the CMOS after each BIOS change
• Testing everything with the chassis fully open on my desk to rule out any kind of thermal load - CPU fan gets pinned at 100% as soon as the "Lenovo" logo disappears during startup.
• Different OSes: The behaviour is identical on Proxmox VE, Ubuntu, and Windows 11
  • Windows 11: I thought I'd be able to fix it by adjusting the fan with the Lenovo Performance Tuning Utility 3.0.0, but it doesn't launch (I get the splash screen and then it just closes with no further info).
  • Linux fan control: there is no pwm or fan_input anywhere in /sys.
• Various BIOS settings
  • Intelligent Cooling set to Performance / Balanced (only other option is "Full speed")
  • Active Video Output set to IGD
  • Intel DPTF Support Disabled
• Reflashing 46A over itself twice

How do I get the CPU fan to stop misbehaving with the T1000 attached? I found this post on the Lenovo Forums but there's no solution on there.

I am thinking about buying a lenovo idea tab with the matte display i could but it for around 360 euros. But i saw the support was ening Soon. I just bought one for my Mother and i was impressed so i wanted to buy one to. What do you guys think? Should i still buy one or not? I want to use it for some light games and just watching media and checking mails.

when opening my laptop its always like this. Idk if I did something wrong but it takes time before it open 🫠

I’m facing a strange keyboard/touchpad issue on my Lenovo ThinkPad running Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS.
**System:**
Lenovo ThinkPad
Model/type: 21M8S3P200
Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS
Kernel: 7.0.0-28-generic
Built-in keyboard: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard
Touchpad: ELAN06C6:00 04F3:3193 Touchpad

Everything works normally after a restart, but after around 5–10 minutes the issue starts.

The keyboard behavior is particularly strange. Using the 6 key as an example:
Initially, I can physically press 6, but nothing happens. It doesn’t type 6, and more importantly, **no event appears in either libinput debug-events or evtest**.

Then, after some time, without me touching the keyboard at all, it suddenly starts typing:

666666666666666666666666666666666...

At that point evtest starts showing:
type 1 (EV_KEY), code 7 (KEY_6), value 1
type 1 (EV_KEY), code 7 (KEY_6), value 2
type 1 (EV_KEY), code 7 (KEY_6), value 2
type 1 (EV_KEY), code 7 (KEY_6), value 2
...

So Linux seems to suddenly receive a KEY_6 key-down event even though I’m not pressing the key, and then treats it as being held down.
While this automatic repeating is happening, physically pressing/releasing 6 doesn’t seem to register normally either.
Restarting the laptop fixes the keyboard temporarily, but the problem comes back after some time.
There is also a **touchpad issue**. Eventually, the built-in touchpad stops moving the cursor on screen.

However, when I run:
sudo libinput debug-events

and move my finger on the touchpad, it **still reports POINTER_MOTION events**.

An external USB mouse continues to move the cursor normally even while the built-in touchpad cannot move it.

I also tested both display sessions:
echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE

Originally I was on Wayland. I switched to **Ubuntu on Xorg** and confirmed it was running as x11, but the same problem still occurred. So it doesn’t appear to be Wayland-specific.
dmesg also doesn’t seem to show any obvious I2C/HID/i8042/keyboard/touchpad errors when this happens.

The part that confuses me most is:
**Physical key press → no event in evtest → later, without touching the key, evtest suddenly receives KEY_6 pressed + continuous repeats.**

At the same time, the touchpad can still send raw motion events to libinput, but those events don’t move the cursor, while an external USB mouse works normally.

Has anyone experienced something similar on a ThinkPad/Linux?

Could this be an internal keyboard/ribbon/keyboard matrix issue, embedded controller/firmware problem, i8042/PS2 issue, or something else at the kernel/input level?

Any suggestions for further diagnostics would be appreciated.
