I’m currently using T480. Thinking of upgrading to a second hand new-ish model.

Initially I was interested in ThinkPad L14 gen 2 or gen 3, but I’ve read that the wifi card is not upgradeable. I also read that newer models block installing SSD into the WWAN slot. I prefer having separate SSD for installing secondary OS.

Any recommendations of newer models with dual SODIMM slots, upgradeable wifi card, ability to add SSD to WWAN slot?

Thank you.

    Yeah. L14 is more upgradable now in terms of memory. That’s what made me interested in L series over T series when I looked around.

      Nice! That’s very interesting. I’ll have to check if the Gen 3 also come with the 16:10, maybe even in an AMD version. If heard they fair very well with Linux.
