I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a grade A solid laptop. I got this for beefing up my programming chops on the go, and it's delightful. Fast, great keyboard, and the little nub is pretty nice to once you get the hang of it. Love the USB-C for power, less cables to carry around. I like how closing the lid will put it to sleep and then hibernate after some time, which is nice cause I don't have to worry about needing to turn it off (running Windows 10 Pro).
Screen is a little glossy but never distracting, though it does give you some decent real estate when it comes to modern program UI. Track pad seems nice but I disabled that because I kept brushing it with my hands, but then again I do a lot of keyboard work.
It's missing a graphics card but the integrated one seems fine enough for anything a nin-gamer would want to do. It supports standard graphics APIs so you can still program for it just fine.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently purchased the Lenovo T-490 with Core I-7, 8 gb of ram, and 512 SSD needing something for work and school. I must say that I come from a devoted Macbook Pro owner for many years but I needed a PC due to research programs and compatibility. For me, this PC has lived up to my standards with no issues to report after heavy use for approx. 2 months. Some of the features I admire are the HD screen, the keyboard experience, the touchscreen and the USB type C charging. I would buy this laptop again if I had to do it all over again with no regrets. At the $1000 price point, you get what you pay for and I believe that I got my money's worth with the Lenovo Thinkpad T-490. If you are on the fence about his computer, do youself a favor and stop worrying and just buy it! Swapping out the 8gb and put a 16 gb in it's place in 5 mins. Nothing complicated here. Cough, cough .... Apple.
