[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Quality beast with incredible configuration options. The 4K OLED touchscreen is simply wonderful. Biggest Power in a lightweight mobile workstation.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The changes in the keyboard are not the best for myself. The track point does not seem to work as well. This was always one of the reasons that I liked the Thinkpad. Everything else seems to be top shelf.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love my ThinkPad P53 for the available 9th gen i7 (mine) or Xeon processors, the sturdy chassis, the three USB-C and two USB-A ports, 4K touchscreen, available color calibration RAM and SSD capacity, full keyboard, NFC, and fingerprint reader. It performs blazingly fast, even with several programs and 20+ Chrome tabs open, as expected. Very satisfied with my purchase.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good machine.
There is a glitch in the set-up.
If you click "disable mouse pad when USB mouse is plugged in", the mouse pad stops working REGARDLESS of whether there is a USB mouse. That kills the start-up. Fortunately I had a USB mouse and I was able to recover.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a software engineer. I had been using an XPS 15 (9570) for a couple months but I returned it to purchase the ThinkPad P53 with similar specifications. So far I'm very pleased with the decision. Biggest improvements for me:
- Better keyboard (better feel, much better spacing, has a numpad) - Better display (matte 4K 500 nits and color-calibrated versus glossy 4K 400 nits) - Better GPU (the XPS 15 can only be outfitted with up to a GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Max-Q) - More ports (I had to carry a USB-to-Ethernet dongle with me when I had the XPS 15)
The battery is about 7.2% smaller but I haven't noticed a major difference in battery life. If Linux works as well on the P53 as it did on the XPS 15 I will be extremely happy.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We're a construction company that uses mostly Dell computers. We needed something for our surveyors to use in the field for AutoCAD. We've had issues with the Dell Precisions so I thought I'd give Lenovo a try. The P53 has been a workhorse. It's all we buy for our CAD users now.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Awesome product, this is called a workstation for a reason, 64gb ram truly gives you freedom to perform with no limits!
