Moderator edit: Added model to subject.
T410 i620 4GB, Windows 7 x64

We've discussed this article pretty thoroughly on the community forum at http://Muvipix.com.
It's actually a pretty absurd review. Putting 120 fps footage into a consumer editing program makes no sense whatsoever!
So it's up to you how seriously you take it. But I've got my review of the new features if you're interested. And it's based on some pretty thorough real world testing.

Or, better yet, I recommend you download the trial and test drive it yourself. Only you can say how well it will work with your unique workflow.

9 cell battery performance on Thinkpad T410

I have just bought new ThinkPad T410 with 9 Cell Lithium-Ion
Power 94 Watts/55++. This battery is advivertised to run for 18 hours, but to my laptop it runs for about 6 hours on a single charge for normal use. what is wrong with my loptop because it has failed to meet my expectationns of all day Computing on a single charge.
this laptop is has 4gb of ram and windows 7 professional 64 bits and is about one week since I bought it. any advice to increase battery performance

the 18 hrs figure require another 9 cells battery slice. Although it is up to, and the manufacturer's battery figure are at most time too idealised.

ThinkPad W530 Review

Just wanted to give a heads up about a review of the W530 that's written by a user who owns the W520, so it's heavy on comparisons which is kind of helpful if you're familiar with that machine. I'll quote the whole review below sans all the images to prevent bandwidth warnings! Also truncated and removed some sections to get under the 20,000 character count limit Full review with images is here: http://www.laptopreviews.com/lenovo-thinkpad-w530-review-2012-07
Just like last calendar year, Lenovo is ahead of Dell and HP in releasing a workstation equipped with the latest and greatest Intel Core processors and nVidia Kepler professional graphics. Starting at $1,299 on Lenovo.com (which is the same starting price as the W520 when it was introduced), the Lenovo Thinkpad W530 can be configured with processors ranging from the Intel Core i5-3320M to i7-3610QM to the top-end i7-3290XM, supports up to 32GB RAM and 270 nit 95% color gamut FHD display for demanding business customers. The W530 is like the W520 in many ways as a professional workstation laptop.
The Thinkpad W530 under review comes with the following specs:
Processor: Intel Core i7-3520M (2.9GHz, TurboBoost to 3.6GHz, 4MB L3 cache)
Graphics: nVidia Quadro K1000M
Memory: 8GB RAM DDR3-1600MHz
Display: 15.6” 1600 x 900 resolution, matte finish
OS: Windows 7 Professional
Storage: 500GB 7200RPM
Battery: 6-cell Li-Ion, 57Whr
Wireless: Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205
Ports: Gigabit Ethernet, VGA, mini-DisplayPort, powered USB 2.0, USB 2.0, USB 3.0 (x2), combination headphone/microphone jack, ExpressCard slot (34mm), SDHC reader, 1394
Weight: 5.95lbs (2.7kg)
Keyboard
Let’s just start off with the most obvious change. The new keyboard is the most radical change in the ThinkPad line since…forever, really. Up until now, the ThinkPad series has had the same keyboard style since introduction, with minor changes here and there. Replacing the traditional 7-row ThinkPad keyboard is the island-style 6-row keyboard, found on the whole range of ThinkPad's, from the 12” X230 all the way up to this 15.6” workstation. Even with the changes, the surface of each key has stayed the same during the transition (1.5cm by 1.5cm for the alphanumeric keys) as well as the spacing between each key (roughly 0.4cm). Other keys, such as Caps Lock, Enter, Shift, Backspace, etc., have stayed the same size as well, though the Caps Lock key no longer has an indicator light. Notable differences include shape changes in the Esc key, Delete key, moving the power button from top-center to top-right, and the lack of a dedicated Menu key. However, the most important changes in key layout are as follows:
The layout of the “special keys” (Delete, Home, End, PgUp and PgDn) has been dramatically rearranged on the new keyboard
The dedicated Forward/Back buttons are now gone. These buttons used to be located to the right/left of the Up Arrow key and are now replaced with the PgUp/PgDn keys
The Print Screen button is now located where the Menu button should be.
The Scroll Lock and Pause buttons have disappeared, though they have been relegated to near-oblivion in today’s world
And just for change’s sake (as far as I know), Lenovo decided to paint the Enter key black instead of the traditional ThinkPad blue and the Windows key is bigger on the W530 than the W520 (1.5cm squared vs. 1cm squared).
To those coming from an older ThinkPad, the newer keyboards are either something to love or something to hate. The older keyboard in previous generations were renowned for their quality and keyboard feel (certainly, they were one of the best laptop keyboard on the market) and is so popular that it has an almost religious following among ThinkPad users. On the flip side, the newer keyboard has a lot to prove to the ThinkPad community. While the common-used alphanumeric keys have the same area and spacing as the old keyboard and the typing quality on it is above average (compared to other island-style keyboards), Lenovo’s choice to move and kill off some special function keys fly in the face of what most ThinkPad users would want. I love using the Forward/Back buttons while browsing the internet and using Windows Explorer, for example, but with the current and likely future ThinkPad's killing those buttons off, I will miss being able to navigate with just my right pinkie. The choice to move the Print Screen button to the bottom of the keyboard just baffles me, period. It would have been nice if Lenovo had kept the 7-row layout while designing the new keyboard and if the keys had stayed in pretty much the same positions during the change (for example, “special keys” staying in the top-right, bringing back the Forward/Back buttons), I wouldn’t make too much fuss over the new style even though I personally prefer traditional keyboards. At least the Fn button stays in the bottom-left corner, an odd quirk that’s been featured on ThinkPad's for as long as I can remember.
Build and Design
Just like the W520 before it, the newer W530 is a tough machine, built well and meant to last. The outside casing of the laptop is made using ABS plastic, while the inside contains an internal rollcage to protect internal electronics in case of a drop or other accident. It also makes the laptop all but impossible to flex (there’s maybe a millimeter or two of flex when twisting the display). There is a keyboard draining system that will protect the laptop in the event of a small liquid spill onto the keyboard as well. Sturdy, metal hinges attach the display to the body of the W530, and they are firm enough to hold any angle they are set up despite any typical vibrations or other movements, and if the W520 is any indicator, they will stay firm for years to come.
As I’ve mentioned in my Thinkpad W520 review, Lenovo’s business laptops are certainly capable of withstanding a few drops onto the floor. Even with repeated drops, having the power brick fall onto the palm rest from several feet above, and traveling with the notebook unprotected in a backpack for just over a year, I’m sure that the W530 will be able to survive prolonged abuse for years to come.
One thing to note about the W530 (and workstation laptops in general) is the power brick. The version with the K1000M GPU comes with the 135W power adaptor and it’s just slightly smaller and lighter than an actual brick of the clay variety, coming in at 6in by 2.5in by 1.4in and 1.83lbs. Those considering buying a W530 with the K2000M will receive the 170W power adaptor (like my W520), which measures 6.5in by 3in by 1.4in and actually weighs less (1.7lbs) oddly enough.
Display
While the review unit came with a 900p, 220 nit HD+ display, the W530 is also available with a 768p 220 nit display (which I recommend against; 768p needs to stay in netbooks and bargain-bin laptops, not workstations) and a 1080p, 95% color gamut, 270 nit FHD display. Depending on the configuration options, either the 768p is the default and the 900p is a $50 upgrade, or the 900p is the default; the 1080p display is a $250 option, though after owning a W520 with said display, I highly recommend it if it’s in the budget. Both the W520 and W530 use the same model displays.
With the 1080p display to the left and 900p display to the right, the 50 nit difference shows. Compared to the HD+ display, the FHD appears to be noticeably brighter (though in photos, it shows as being more white-washed, though this is due to the camera and not the displays). Colors on the 95% gamut FHD are also more saturated than the HD+ display, though the HD+ display still has colors that pop out well. Black reproduction on either display is good, with both being very dark. Being TN panels, viewing angles on either is just average, though better than on glossy display found in most consumer laptops. Tilt either screen back far enough (they go just past 180 degrees) and colors turn into shades of black or extremely darker versions.
Sound
This is where the W530 makes the W520 look shameful. Owners of the W520 workstation laptop would either have to use an external speaker set, headphones, or have to perform modifications in order to have a laptop that sounds half-way decent. The W520 speakers were low volume (even when at 100%), had no depth, and would sound tinny when playing near 100% and/or playing high-pitch noises.
In contrast, the W530 actually sounds amazing. In my review of the Thinkpad W520, I contrasted the W520 to a Dell XPS 15 with JBL speakers, concluding that the only way to get good sound from a W520 was to use a different sound solution from the internal speakers. However, I feel that the W530 can compete with media center laptops in terms of audio performance, a major plus over the previous generation Lenovo workstation. This is in thanks to different audio drivers (the W520 uses the Conexant 20672 SmartAudio HD drivers, and the W530 uses Realtek High Definition Audio) and Lenovo’s inclusion of Dolby Home Theater v4 software, which I went into detail about in the Ideapad U310 review. In a nutshell, this software includes a few factory-shipped sound profiles and settings appropriate for different usage scenarios, which allow a user to enhance voice quality (in the Movie profile) or to enjoy rich sound when listening to music (in the Music profile and various settings). While the W520 was tinny and lacked bass, the W530 can reproduce sounds from any pitch found in music and gives great bass for a laptop lacking a subwoofer.
Software
Unlike the previous W520, Lenovo’s ThinkPad W530 comes with a bit of bloatware out of the box. Of course, there is the typical trial AV software, Intel WiDi, and Microsoft Office Starter 2010, though this is to be expected in pretty much any laptop bought today. Also included is a trial of Nitro Pro 7, a PDF editing suite, and Corel DVD MovieFactory (Lenovo Edition). Lenovo also includes a cloud storage solution called “Lenovo Cloud Storage by SugarSync”. Skype is also included on the W530 and with the integrated camera, the video coming from the W530 user looks clear and colorful.
Lenovo also includes some excellent software as well. My personal favorite is the Lenovo Power Manager 6, which is like the default Windows power manager on steroids. A user can change system settings (CPU deep sleep, display brightness, ODD power, etc.), idle timers (when to stop the HDD, dimmed display brightness, standby and hibernation), advanced settings (allow/disallow hybrid sleep and wake timers, power management for PCIe, USB, CPU, and system cooling), events and alarms. By default, it comes with six power profiles (Power Source Optimized, Max. Performance, Max. Battery Life, Video Playback, Energy Saver (which actually drains more power than Max. Battery Life, oddly), and Timers off (for when a user wants to use the W530 in a presentation).
The best I can describe Lenovo SimpleTap as being is a Metro-like interface on top of Windows 7; either launching it from the Start menu or the blue ThinkVantage button on the keyboard will activate it, resulting in the traditional Windows desktop being replaced with a Metro-style tile system and a toolbar on the top-right corner. The user can always exit out of this interface by either pressing the Escape key or clicking on the SimpleTap background. The included Thinkpad-branded fingerprint software is also excellent, allowing for a simpler and more secure way to log into Windows; I use it exclusively on my personal W520, though there is a setting to allow a user to log in with a password en lieu of a fingerprint. Last but not least is the ThinkVantage Tools suite, which includes the above ThinkPad applications, plus: Password Vault, Update and Drivers, Airbag Protection (an active protection system for the HDD), Factory Recovery Disks, Messages from Lenovo, Enhanced Backup and Restore, Internet Connections System Health and Diagnostics, and Web Conferencing.
In the case of a fresh Windows install, a user can always download the Thinkpad-branded software from Lenovo’s website. If anything, I recommend keeping the Power Manager software.
Battery Life
Not using Power Manager’s Battery Stretch, the Lenovo Thinkpad W530 was able to last six hours and 46 minutes while having the display brightness set to 5 out of 15 and only using the Intel GPU (Optimus disabled). The 6-cell battery was also able to last five hours and 25 minutes under those same conditions, but also included a 45 minute YouTube video. Using the same settings, but running solely on the K1000M, the W520 manages a battery life of three hours and 52 minutes.
Out of curiosity, I tried installing my W520’s 9-cell battery into the W530, and while it fitted correctly, there were some issues. If a user tries booting with the older battery, the W530 will stop booting and display the following message:
The battery installed is not supported by this system and will not charge. Please replace the battery with the correct Lenovo battery for this system. Press the ESC key to continue.
What that means is that even if the W530 is plugged into its charger, the laptop will still not recharge the battery. This is because the older batteries lack an authentication chip inside of them (found in OEM batteries in the -30 series of Thinkpads). A user can still use an older battery with the system, but will have to find some other means to charge up other than the W530.
User Upgradability
If you know how to use a screwdriver, you can upgrade the W530 yourself with aftermarket parts. Lenovo, in a way, even encourages this by publishing their service manuals online. To access RAM slots 3 and 4 and to access the hard drive bay, all that’s needed is to remove the only two doors on the underside of the laptop, three screws total. This ThinkPad ships with a Hitachi Z7K500 500GB 7200RPM hard drive and no RAM in the last two slots (out of a total of four slots, allowing 32GB of RAM maximum).
To gain access to the rest of the components, there are two additional screws located on the bottom that must be undone. One is located right next to the RAM module door (towards the front edge of the laptop) and the other is located within the RAM module area itself. When these are gone, all one needs to do to remove the keyboard is to slide it towards the display, lift from the bottom edge near the trackpad, and carefully move towards the trackpad. First thing I noticed was that the size, shape, and connector is the same for both the W530’s keyboard and W520’s keyboard, so it might be possible to put an traditional ThinkPad keyboard into this Ivy Bridge system. However, there are additional keys on the W520’s keyboard that are not found on the W530 (Screen Lock, Forward/Back keys, etc.) and the BIOS probably would not know how to handle those extra keys. Anyway, Lenovo ships out this particular system with two sticks of generic Samsung memory (4GB each), an Intel 6205 WiFi card, and a slot for either a WWAN card or mSATA SSD (only one can be installed at a time). If an end user must have both, they could install the mSATA SSD and use an ExpressCard 3G cellular data card externally.
Conclusion
Like its predecessor, the W530 is a functional workstation laptop that’s first out of the gate with an array of Ivy Bridge processors to choose from. It can pack up to an Extreme Edition i7-3920XM, nVidia Quadro K2000 GPU, 32GB of RAM, 1080p display, and up to three system drives -- mSATA SSD, primary HDD bay, and another drive if you replace the optical bay with an Ultrabay HDD caddy. While not equipped with the more expensive options, our review unit is certainly a great workstation that will serve a professional well in any CUDA-based work (CAD, video or photo editing, graphics design, etc.). The most noticeable change between the W520 and W530 is the keyboard, and for a lot of potential buyers it will be a love it or hate it situation. For those buying into the ThinkPad line for the first time, it may not bother you too much. Those who are long-time ThinkPad users (such as myself) will probably be disappointed in the direction Lenovo has gone with the new design, but ignoring the odd arrangement of non-alphanumeric keys the new ThinkPad keyboard is actually a joy to type on. The curved keys fit well around the fingers, just like the old keyboard, and since the spacing between keys are the same it shouldn’t feel too different for those upgrading to a newer ThinkPad.
If history is any indicator, the ThinkPad W530 should not only be the first Ivy Bridge mobile workstation, but will also be the lightest of the bunch as well (the W520 was 5.95lbs, Dell’s Precision M4600 was around 6lbs, and HP’s Elitebook 8650w started at 6.5lbs). My only objective complaint about the W530 (ignoring the keyboard) is that Lenovo did not introduce an option for users to purchase one with a FirePro professional GPU (Quadro’s competition), found in workstations offered by Dell and HP. For those that do not need CUDA, it would have been a great, cost-effective solution while still staying with the legendary ThinkPad line.
Pros
Business-quality durability
Multiple storage drive options
Over 6.5 hours of battery life
IBM warranty support
Vastly improved sound quality (compared to the W520)
Cons
No Forward/Back keys, other missing keys
Cannot use previous-generation Lenovo OEM batteries

I think no one "normally" working will use touch specific elements of Win8! Metro is one part of Win8, but i think normal desktop mode will be preferred by 99 % of the users.
With the new upcoming Microsoft Surface, touch might work well, but i just don't see myself touching my laptop's screen.

(SOLVED) Thinkpad T410 and 3G internet

This post may reflect my lack of experience with notbooks, but I have a question regarding my brand new Thinkpad T410. I didn't choose the notebook myself, it was given to me through my employer. Naturally all administrator privileges are non-existing, so I have to rely on my company's "technical support" for any changes to the software.
Now, if I'm not mistaken this computer should be ready for a sim-card and 3G internet connection (That's WWAN, right?). Model is 2522-WTX. Now, in device manager, I cannot find anything regarding a WWAN module, allthough there is a SIM-card slot under the battery.
I have allready called for my employers support department to help me out, but I know that they just started buying the Lenovo computers, and they don't have that much experience setting them up. So I'm trying to help them out by figuring out what needs to be done. From what I have read so far, installing drivers for this module should activate it. I don't know if the "Access Connection" tool is strictly needed. However, on Lenovo's drivers download page there are too many choices for driver download:
1) HUAWEI EM660 Wireless WAN
2) HUAWEI EM660 Wireless WAN firmware
3) Leadcore 5730D Wireless WAN
4) Thinkpad Wireless WAN (UNDP) - Boot Code Update Utility
5) Thinkpad Wireless WAN (UNDP) - Qualcomm Gobi2000
Do I need all of them? Some? Which ones? Should I be good to go only with the drivers, or is Access Connection needed (I'm running Windows 7)? Is any SIM-card valid, or are there any ISP-related limits I need to know of (currently my mobile internet provider is Netcom, Norway).
I hope that some of you are capable of helping me out, thanks in advance!

Thanks for all answers. To get to the bottom of whether I do have the 3G-card installed, I opened up the hatch underneath the laptop. There it is, as someone said, it is the Qualcomm Gobi2000 card. Antenna wires connected.
So, I browsed through the device manager again. It seems that I hadn't looked at the right places. I had looked at "Modems" and "Network cards". But in the "Ports (COM and LPT)" category, it is listed as "Qualcomm Gobi 2000 HS-USB QDLoader9204 (COM5). No exclamation point either. When going to properties, the driver date is 12. jan 2010. Driver version 2.0.7.1. Port settings are: bps: 9600. Databits:8. Parity: None. Stopbits:1. Flow control: None.
But how do I use it? Fn+F5 doesn't seem to do much (should it?). I can't find any way of accessing it through the regular windows 7 Network and Sharing Center. As I wrote in my first post, I have no administration rights, so installing additional software needs to be done by my company's tech guy. Is there any way I should be able to connect through 3G without eiter 3rd party or Lenovo software? Any BIOS-setting that needs to be altered?
PS: I also have none of the Lenovo software preinstalled (Lenovo system update, toolbox etc.). This computer is almost completely stripped :-(
The Qualcomm device on COM5 is the GPS serial interface, the 3G card should be listed under Network Adapters. Once the card is working you should be able to select your provider from inside of access connections to connect.

Lenovo Thinkpad T410 got errors with Fingerprint sensor device! So frustrating!

I have just bought a new Lenovo Thinkpad T410 2518-FAA from one of main agencies of Lenovo in my country. The new-buy laptop was said to be totally new, i.e. it was not a re-furbished, and I actually checked for manything to confirm the real status of this laptop. However, when I bought it back to my house, a serious problem appeared. At the laptop store, I did not have enough time to check the Fingerprint device, thus I skipped to check it. When I came back home, the Fingerprint sensor error of this new-buy laptop completely drived me crazy!!! I installed the Fingerprint software of Lenovo, but this software continuously reported errors: "Can not enroll users, can not update passport, and can not find fingerprint sensor device." I have tried uninstalled and reinstalled this software many times, and already checked for the latest version of this software, it was Thinkvantage Fingerprint sofware 5.9.3 for Win 7-32 bit. My operation system is Win 7-32 bit. But these errors still appeared again and again. I already checked the status of TouchChip Fingerprint Coprocessor in Biometric Devices, uninstalled then re-installled this device, and it showed that this device was working properly and up-to-date, and I already unchecked the option "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power", but all of my efforts was in vain!!! These errors still appeared and it drives me crazy! Up to now I had been unable to enroll my fingerprint to set up the fingerprint reader! These 3 errors just kept prompting in front of my eyes! Another problem is that the laptop can transfer files to my Nokia E51 mobile via Bluetooth, but I could not make the reverse transfer for a file from this mobile to laptop! Oh, I am very disappointed about Lenovo now! Inside the manufacture box that carried the laptop, there are just some instruction guides without any installation CD for installing Thinkvantage softwares... I had to go to the website of Lenovo and find a bunch of links of softwares that I tried many times but I still did not know how to donwload... I had to donwload the Thinkvantage Fingerprint software from another website... Please help me, guys! Did you encounter the same problem with me? May you please instruct me how to solve these problems! Thank you a lot!

hey Moon_Light,
i would suggest uninstalling all ThinkVantage software, then go to http://support.lenovo.com ; download all drivers for you unit and install.
at the same time do a bios update as well.

[Solved]Thinkpad T410: Annoying button problems

On my Thinkpad T410, the light on my keyboard speaker mute button won't turn on, and the light on my mic mute button won't turn off. I have no idea what to do. Any ideas?
EDIT: Upon further investigation, I have also realized that my microphone is stuck on mute
Another Edit: I'm not qiute sure why, but adding acpi_osi=Linux as a kernel parameter, rebooting, removing it, then rebooting again fixed it.

Would a ThinkPad T410 run a 30" monitor at 2560x1600?

G'day folks! At my workplace I have recently been given a ThinkPad T410 as my main workstation for my office. I use to have an Apple 30" monitor connected to my PC which had a dual-link cable. That set-up was giving me a 2560x1600 desktop area to work on.
With the new ThinkPad T410, I have not been able to find a way to get the same resolution. I have purchased a 45J7915 cable with not much luck. Any way I try I am getting a maximum of 1920x1200.
How could I get 2560x1600??

How many points/fingers on the Thinkpad T410S touchscreen ?

Hello
I know that Thinkpad T410s can have a touchscreen. I'd like to know:
1) Can you confirm me that it is a N-Trig Touchscreen?
2) Can you tell me if it is a multitouch or multipoint touchscreen, and how many points/fingers are supported? I'd like to have a 4 fingers technology; i've read from Lenovo web site that is is a new technology. So if I by a T410s in january or february 2011, will I have that 4 fingers technology on my touchscreen? .
Thank you very much

Unable to turn on wifi power saving thinkpad t410

Hi --
I'm having a bit of trouble getting my wireless power-saving to work. I'm using TLP, which has a wireless power save option which I've set to "on". However, when I run iwconfig it appears power-saving is disabled:

Here's the relevant output of lspci:

I'm using the rtl8192se module, which has an option "ips" which enables link power saving. It defaults to "on", but I manually turned it on as well. Still no dice.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get wireless power-saving to work? Anyone with a thinkpad t410 had any luck?
Thanks in advance!

The realtek power saving feature does not work. At least I could never get it to work, nor could I ever find relevent documentation regarding powersaving on the device. It is kind of crappy IMO.

DVD Instalación Thinkpad T410

Buenas noches, voy recien llegando al foro y me gustaría preguntarles, tendrá alguien el DVD de instalación para una ThinkPad T410 2522K3S, un problema con el disco duro mando a volar todo lo relacionado con hacer un recovery y nunca tuve la precaución de sacar los discos de instalación. Espero alguien pueda ayudar, gracias de antemano.

Hola, tengo una thinkpad t410s.

Soy nuevo con esta marca y Tengo una thinkpad t410s, y quiero ponerle mas memorias, necesito saber opiniones de cuales usas y que tipo y cuanto es el maximo que aguanta, para poder comprar las memorias correctas para mi thinkpad.
Nota: Mi laptop tiene 4gb
Gracias.
¡Resuelto!
Ir a solución.

El maximo de la T410s son 8GB (2x 4GB de RAM)
Tienes que comprar SODIMM DDR3-8500 o DDR3-10600, evita las marcas sin nombre de Ebay, como asi tambien la linea Value RAM de Kingston (las demas son buenas) y la linea Value Select de Corsair.
Saludos

Thinkpad T410 HDD upgrade

Hello,
I'm about to upgrade HDD on my thinkpad T410 and I can't decide what to buy. So, I need to decide between a WD Scorpio Black 750GB 7200RPM or a WD scorpio Blue 1 TB and 5400 rpm. So can you please help me decide which one is better for my computer Thanks.

Between the two, I would opt for the Scorpio Black. I replaced my original T510 HDD with a Scorpio Black. Then, I replaced it with a Seagate Momentus XT hybrid and it really improved performance, especially boot/load time.
I have now replaced the Momentus XT with a Samsung 830 SSD, and it is even faster, but only by about 10 seconds on boot/load.
Boot time to fingerprint/PW entry with the XT was about 38 seconds I sent the used XT to a friend, and the comment back was "Wow!"
