[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The laptop is a beast. It feels more like a desktop in terms of power. The fan is a little loud at times but it keeps the CPU and GPU rather cool. I am a software architect and this compiles code super fast and I never get lag. The WiFi 7 speeds are incredible if you have the right network hardware in your home. The keyboard and trackpad are perfect, I don't know anything I would change about them. The aesthetics and feel of the chassis are great but be ready for fingerprints on the lid if that bothers you. The charger is 170 watts so be prepared to shell out a lot of money for a dock that can deliver that much juice and the charger itself is the proprietary lenovo style, not usb c like we've come to expect from most modern equipment, so a second charger is likely going to be expensive as well. I'm not a computer gamer but I couldn't resist trying out a couple of games and it didn't disappoint. The new Intel Core Ultra 9 185H is not really a performance upgrade from the previous i9 series but it is less power hungry and has the NPU for AI workloads so it is a fair trade with no noticeable lag under load. If you are a remote worker and find yourself working from different locations or even kicking back in the recliner for the afternoon to finish your day, this is the laptop for you. I run windows 11 as the primary OS VMWare Wokstation Pro with a Ubuntu VM for development because I prefer that over WSL and this machine runs both flawlessly. I was a huge fan of the MacBook pro until they switched to the ARM architecture because... well, who doesn't like a mac, but these days a good linux OS will feel very familiar as an alternative without being forced to buy everything else Apple to connect with it. I've also recently started using Blender to create 3D models for my 3D printer and this also runs that software like a champ!
tldr; If you want a great Windows laptop that will handle all of your high performance needs, this is a fantastic device.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sturdy and reliable so far hopefully the usb port holds up got this to replace my last one i got last year
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Runs so smooth I love the face reader to open up the computer and runs just about anything I ask of it couldn’t have a better college computer
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one of my favorite Thinkpads I have ever owned. Upgrading from a P50 which has served me well this thing is just so nice to use. The only thing I wish is that the fans weren’t on the bottom but I guess that is ok since it is so thin.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great all-round machine with powerful computing power, great graphics and all in a small portable packegs.
