I had a T470p and this new laptop is such a great improvement. Battery life has been great so far (I've had it for less than a month). My 14'' T490 is very light and perfect size to take to conferences and meetings.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's probably too early to write a review, but my T490 feels as a really good machine for work. No problem using Linux (Ubuntu) on it either, with a very smooth install. I've been passionate about Thinkpads for a long time, and I hope the T490 will show its best in the family!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love it so far, my first Lenovo coming from a Toshiba Portege that I also love. I just wish Lenovo had kept the 2.5 HDD bay on top of the Nvme ssd.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is good laptop with perfect design for my works (office, excel, project manager with moniror, keyboard is perfect), but I am not happy with laptop weight, I hope it more light and thin.
Excellent build quality through out. Practical port selection. This is my second ThinkPad. The first was a X220 that ran well for years. This one ( the T490} feels like it will out last that one.
