Had co-workers that liked the Thinkpad. I looked around the lenovo website and decided on purchasing a thinkpad for my personal use. Its my first ever laptop and I am very happy with my decision.

Very nice computer. The touch screen is really sensitive, but other than that it runs smooth and efficiently for my needs.

I received as present and wasn't expecting that powerful laptop. Very happy with it. Bigger and a little heavier than expected

The buttons at the top of the touchpad used with the trackpoint make the touchpad a true laptop verses the bottonless touchpad the need an external device like a trackball. The touchpad without buttons is worse than useless.

Well for the price of the laptop it is good for mid end games but for video editing or just a work station. It is amazingly awesome. I would recommend this laptop but if you want something for higher end games maybe try a few upgrades as you can modify your laptop on the website directly from Lenovo site. But over all I love lenovo products.

I like the seperate 10 key on the keyboard. Keys feel good to the touch. Love the touch mouse pad layout and the camera shutter for privacy.

Product is great customer service horrible. I purchased the Norton 360 and they couldn't deliver the product for 30 days. I reached customer service. And talk to them 15 times. It could never help deliver the product and the refuse or refund. I only got a response when I reached out on X and Better Business Bureau. Truly disappointing I love the laptop however it's a great product. The customer service is incredibly disappointing.

My work uses only Lenovo laptops for our travelers and WFH employees. When searching for a new laptop for home use my I.T. department say me down and went over what I wanted etc. AMD chip was a must and backlit keyboard. I purchased the laptop 3 weeks ago and home setup was a breeze. Can't recommend enough.

The ThinkPad is a very solid machine and well built. Two criticisms. 1. It's really heavy (too heavy) for a laptop. 2. The keyboard layout is very awkward because your hands are positioned on the left side of the screen. I am having great difficulty adjusting to having my hands on the left side of The machine instead of the middle. I would've chosen a cheaper 14inch model without the numeric keypad on the right hand side so that my hands would've been centered below the screen. If I could, I would return it for this reason.

I have never owned a ThinkPad and I absolutely love this one. It was a great price, it has the touchscreen, lighted keyboard and it is very fast. This is my all time favorite laptop. I also purchased the wireless mouse and keyboard to use in the future. Thank you so much!!!

I like the responsiveness of the keyboard. Nice spring back on the keys. The battery life is great. The only negative is is the outside shows finger prints too much.

Computer is quick and feels super sturdy and well built. I didn't realize this came with a touch screen, also the fingerprint scanner is lightning fast. The keyboard feels smooth and has a great feel. Overall highly recommend.

This is my third ThinkPad and probably my last. The battery holds a charge for about 6 hours on low usage. Not very useful in that I have to carry my charger with me. The trackpad is not user friendly with the bottom "mouse left/right" buttons gone. I have to use both hands to utilize the trackpad as a mouse. I gave up and plugged in a mouse, which is another thing I have to carry around. Definitely would not buy this again.

The laptop is light and well put together. Setup was very fast and easy, including removal of unwanted software. Connection to my home network and subscriptions was very straightforward. I like the service software interfaces, including that for the BIOS. All are big improvements over having to use command line.
