If one complaint exists, its that the touchpad is too far off-center to the left, and that my palm sometimes bumps it.. although I think I've gotten through the touchpad settings well enough to enable palm detection properly. If you disable the clickpad and use just the buttons / red nub, itd be a non-issue. Maybe you also lift your palms more than I do. *shrug* Furthermore, I have found the 1920x1080 IPS non-touchscreen panel (matte display) in my laptop to have a bit of a strange gamma curve; It is spot-on with mid-tones, but the low/high ends are washed out. I just found the "BroadcastRGB" property in xrandr, and I must say this 100% fixes the ~15 or so black levels that are indistinguishable and the ~5-6 white levels also indistinguishable from eachother in the lagom.nl/lcd/ test pages xrandr --output eDP1 --set "Broadcast RGB" "Limited 16:235" This works like a charm, and the difference in low-brightness color visibility is marked. I highly suggest this tweak in a constantly applied-at-boot display script in your favorite window manager/desktop environment. Setting the gamma level itself caused mid-tones to become too bright. This limited range is far more useful :) Hope you enjoy the T460s as much as I have the past 2+ weeks training and working at my new job.
