I'm unfortunately really unimpressed with the Trackpoints coming out of Lenovo today. I have a brand new ThinkPad that suffers from drift everyday, so it's easy for me to see why other companies aren't including Trackpoints on their products.


There is no good Lenovo hardware anymore. It’s been completely swallowed by the Chinese company that bought it, and even the formerly “noble”/enterprise lines are junk now. Same as HP.


I’d argue it’s a superior mouse even with the drift, even though I agree that the drift is annoying and am amazed they have not been able to fix it all these years.


I still use it everyday, but it is definitely a love/hate relationship. I imagine I'll switch to an ergonomic keyboard with trackpoint someday soon.


Much less "today", I have horrible chronic drift problems with my 2019-era X1 Gen 7, which is super disappointing.
