T480 or T580? (lemmy.ml)

I'm thinking of buying myself a ThinkPad to run Linux on it. I've never owned one, and never ran Linux on anything. What are the differences between these two besides the size and numpad? Should I know something?

I don't think it's the case for the T480/580, but for the T14 and T16 machines it's literally the exact same mobo just stuffed into the larger case.

You can get a bigger battery on the T16 at least vs the T14
