The only reason we buy Thinkpads, is because of the trackpoint and the 3 buttons. They could remove the trackpad, we disable it anyway.

I do hope other manufacturers will fill this gap. Lenovo's quality has been going downhill.

Typing this on a Lenovo Thinkpad P16 gen2



I have a Z13 with virtualized button on the Touchpad. At least the simulated haptics are decent. But I agree that 3 physical buttons should be standard. I however also have external ThinkPad/Trackpoint keyboards which I use most of the time. I am waiting for a track point keyboard for the framework. However the framework market place, that was supposed to serve niche needs, is rather an illusion.


typing back from T16 Gen2 - here I don't disable trackpad (due to larger size I guess?) but, on my last T480 - it was surely disabled!
