Replacing screens on newer ThinkPads.
Hello all! Here's a shorter video about replacing the displays in newer ThinkPads (generally xx40 and newer) that I have put together for you. Hopefully it can be of use for some of you! Enjoy and thanks for watching!
Models this process applies for (to my knowledge, I will update if needed):
*DOES NOT* apply for any of the glass touch screen versions (T440s touch, etc)
X230s
X240s*
T440
T440s
T450*
T450s*
T460
T460s
T470/A475
T470s
ThinkPad 25
X280/A285
T480/A485
T480s
T580
P52s
X390/395
T490/495
T490s/495s
T590
P43s
P53s
T14
T14s
T15
P1 (all generations)
X1 Carbon (2nd generation onward)
X1 Extreme (all generations)
*The xx50 generation of ThinkPads, as well as the X240, have a display whitelist that makes aftermarket replacements only run at maximum brightness if you use Windows. If you use Linux, flash the replacement screen’s EDID to trick the ThinkPad into thinking it’s a genuine xx50 panel, or flash a custom/unlocked BIOS onto the laptop, this issue can be fixed. Thankfully Lenovo realized their mistake, so the xx50 generation is the only one to have this pointless restriction.
