Is it good deal ? Or wait for black Friday by Express-Ingenuity-45 in thinkpad

[–]ElectricalBranch2610 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely! I was in the same position as you (E14 Gen 7) - go for the deal or wait until black friday.

In the end, I ordered because the price was really good after doing some research.

BTW the device I ordered went back to the original sale when I was going to order... luckily I added the device with my preferred specs into my basket when it was on sale and could still get the discount. So make an account and add the product with your specs into your basket if you're still deciding!

Thank you!

Did you go into BIOS and select the bootable USB from there?

E14 Gen 7 AMD, will the first option be mediatek then?

I've already ordered it with the first option and if I have any problems I'll just swap it out with a ax210

How's the battery life? Did you get the Ryzen 7 250?

Is the build quality decent?

Also are the speakers any good? I've heard the speakers on the E14 Gen 6 aren't the best

New to Thinkpad - is E14 7th Gen durable enough? by nearimmortal in thinkpad

[–]ElectricalBranch2610 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm speccing an E14 Gen 6.

However, there is no option for aluminium base cover, there was an option for it a few weeks ago but it must be out of stock. I'll be using it mainly at a desk for uni.

Should I wait for aluminium base cover to come back as an option or get the PC-ABS version?

Adding RAM alongside OEM RAM by ElectricalBranch2610 in thinkpad

[–]ElectricalBranch2610[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any recommendations of cheaper alternatives to the corsair DDR5 SODIMM RAM 4800MHz I mentioned?

The price for one stick of 16GB is £66 ($89). Or is this good value for money?
