I’m looking to replace my tower PC with a mobile option (only strictly for work, no gaming or video editing).
And I’ve found an online shop that sells ThinkPads: they are selling this FHD (no HDR) i7-8650U, 16GB RAM, 512GB storage used laptop (X1 Gen 6) for 400 usd and I’m wondering if you guys would recommend it.
They offer a 3-month warranty.
They also have a 310usd i5-8350U, 8GB RAM, 256GB storage option, in case this sounds like a better deal (also used and no HDR); and a 345usd i5-8350U, 16GB RAM, 512GB one.
I’ve looked far and wide and it seems like all shops here sell these at the same price.
This is all in Vietnam and here I cannot use Amazon/eBay etc.
Check out ebay, plenty of T480 and T480s.

Can’t use Western sites as I’m in Vietnam. But thanks!
Look if you can grab a T480 or T480s there, if you want to run Linux I believe these are better and cheaper options.
