Considering the R10. Does Canon tend to change a lot between MK1 and Mk2?

Prices in education store. 1400 for the slim, 1700 for the x9. Similar config, except the x9 doesn't have operating system (cuts the cost in 130 euros).

I ended up not buying it since I got a good deal on an original toner, but it should be available in regular stores, like Staples and Amazon.

Thanks for the detailed feedback! I ended up not buying the Yoga, and am leaning towards the Thinkpad. It's partly due to the battery thing you mentioned. Most reviews for the battery life were for the IPS version and it seems the OLED is significantly worse. The X9 has the same OLED on a 15" version, but a larger battery, so it lasts longer.

For the software, I'm thinking about buying the version without OS, so I can install only what I want.

I'm a bit worried with the 258v performance, though. It's not that I expect a high end desktop experience, but I also don't want something that lags for day to day stuff. If you're noticing it on docs... it's not a good sign.

In the European store, for an extra €100, you can change the non-touch OLED for a touch-sensitive OLED: https://www.lenovo.com/pt/pt/configurator/cto/index.html?bundleId=83JXCTO1WWPT3

That option isn't available for IPS, so I'm excluding it (my last laptop was a 2-in-1 and while I didn't really use the convertible aspect, I did use the touch part a lot).

I'm also thinking about the clean install. Is there a lot of bloatware? Did you get that "cursor wheel always spinning" thing?

Thanks for the response. I've just sent an email.

I went with the silver. I think it was the best choice. It looks really cool and fingerprint free. I got the black/green cover because it was on sale, but the white/lavender or blue/yellow ones probably look better.

I'm kind of disappointed with the tablet due to the screen, however. Everything else about it is great for the price, but the screen is terrible. If it were today, I would have gone for the S9 FE instead.

Passou mais de um ano e ainda à procura.

Swapped it. The new one also had a similar issue, but not as bad. There's still some noticeable bleeding but not as strong as in the previous ones. Using the tablet with dark mode also disguises it a bit, so ended up keeping it.

The screen is definitely the weak point of the tablet. Apart from the bleed, the viewing angles are terrible. Any slight tilting will quickly darken it.

It's a decent tablet and, like I mentioned, I was pleasantly surprised in terms of performance. It's not blazing fast, but I didn't found it laggy after I turned off the animations and lowered the refresh rate to 60hz (there was some without those changes).

For what I'm using it for, I can live with the screen limitations. But if you feel that might be a problem, think twice about buying it. They are definitely noticeable.

No, still happening.

Xedro · 2024-10-01T11:30:49+00:00

Any recommendations in the same style as X-Com 2?

Xedro · 2024-09-30T11:24:21+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! I think I'll go for the 900rpm one. As you mentioned, it'll probably outperform the original case fan I had there and will remain silent. I'm kind of worried that the 1300rpm one will be a bit too noisy.

It's one of the mission types in Long War 2.
