This is a quick survey about Linux related hardware features of the Lenovo ThinkPad T570. I don't try to explain the usual installation details (for instance, which partitions I have made, what they are good for and so on and so on...). Requests for additional information may be directed by eMail to the author.
The laptop comes with an 15,6" HD+ TFT LCD, which allows resolutions from "320x180" to "1920x1080" pixels.
A nice goodie is the facility to boot the notebook over USB and LAN (not needed here yet, but a nice to have feature).
The machine comes with an ACPI interface. Standby- or suspend-mode is established by software (stock Linux acpi utilities) or pressing the appropriate hardware button. The laptop suspends under X and console to RAM and disk. It restores it's former state in reasonable speed. All relevant FN buttons send appropriate signals, when thinkpad_acpi is loaded as module or compiled into the kernel.
The machine runs with the two builtin batteries up to 11,0 hours.
Be sure that you have installed the latest BIOS, available on Lenovo's support site.
My ThinkPad T570 runs these days on ArchLinux/x86_64, because this Linux flavor avoids auto-configuration and some other here not wanted mumbo jumbo. It's running on top of an ArchLinux kernel 4.17.8-1-ARCH.
This notebook is as solid as it's black case -- no fancy stuff, only boring, functional hardware.
The system comes with an Intel Core i5 2.6 GHz processor.

The processor works without additional daemons nicely with the CPU-frequency governors of Linux-3. Most times I use the ondemand governor.
The system has two memory slots for SODIMM DDR4 Synchronous 2133 MHz RAM, which can hold maximal 32 GByte. My system is configured with 2x 8 GByte.

This non volatible memory device is connected over a SATA to PCIe bridge to the system and lives in the disk bay. The device name is "/dev/nvme0n1". It seems to me that conventional SSDs are in the near future things from the past.

As the machine comes without generic optical device, one needs for CDs and DVDs usage an external USB-pluggable device.

The modesetting driver bundled with xorg-x11 works well with the 15,6" (396mm) LCD (UHD (1920x1080) color, anti-glare, LED backlight, 16:9 aspect ratio).
One PCI Express MiniCard slot (for 34 mmm wide ExpressCards).

The notebook's got a touchpad with 2 and a trackpoint with 3 buttons. The whole stuff is recognized as a Intellimouse PS/2 and works in the text mode console with gpm started like this:
# /usr/sbin/gpm -m /dev/input/mice -t imps2
The X mouse works flawlessly with 'libinput'. Excerpts from my xorg.conf:

The keyboard comes quite unspectacular as a generic model with 104 keys with an additional numeric block. The relevant FN-keys work surprisingly well, wenn the module thinkpad_acpi.ko is loaded with options thinkpad_acpi experimental=1. You may define your own key bindings with a properly configured acpid.

There are 3x USB3.0, 1x1 USB3.1 and 1x Power-USB ports on the sides of the laptop. The USB controllers needs the kernel modules usbcore, uhci, ehci and xhci, kernel's storage subsystem usb-storage and SCSI hard disk support.

All here needed hardware works well with a recent Linux kernel and my favorite distribution. The machine suspends to RAM and disk, from X or console -- and awakes from both suspend states again.
