Thinkpads always seem to have garbage screens. It felt like they maxed out at 1340x768 res for a long time and even when I last looked a year or two ago, 1080p seemed like the best you can get in most cases.

Every thinkpad released in the last 5 years has had screens with 100% adobe rgb color accuracy. They're almost all at least brighter than 300 nits. Some brighter than 400. They're objectively incredible screens. 1366x768 hasn't been the standard in a long time. 1440p has been an option for a long time too. As far back as the t460 or the first gen x1 carbon like 10 years ago. The last ThinkPad I can see where 1366x768 was even an option was the t490 in 2017. After that they moved onto 16:10 screens and made 1920x1200 the minimum. Hell even 1800p OLED screens have been available in some models for 7 years. The t570 and p50 both have 4k screens and they've been available for about 7 years as well.
