So far so good. Very similar to the previous version I had (gen 5). The major improvement is the sound quality. This is much better than it was before. Webcam shutter is also very handy. Happy with the purchase!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great speed and comfortable. My main work laptop so it has to be fast and easy to navigate. Opening and sharing docs while on a video call or replying to emails is smooth.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the ThinkPad XI Gen 8 lap top after my touchscreen Microsoft laptop died. My Lenovo lap top is light, the keystroke is natural, it has lots of features I love--especially the security features. The sound system is excellent and the graphics are sharp and clear. It satisfies all of my needs and works flawlessly. I can't say enough good things about the lap top. It is pricey but worth the cost. I bought it online which was easy and efficient.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the second ThinkPad I have owned. The portability of the machine is great for my job and I have not had any software issues. The Caps Lock button does stick, just as t did on last model. Other than that, it's terrific.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Shorter battery than advertised, still a great buy

Verified Purchase:Yes
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Battery life shorter than advertised, but still packs in a solid 6-8 hours, sometimes 10 if you really squeeze it out. Excellent display and speed. Does get a bit hot to the touch when charging. Keyboard is fairly good. It was worth it to me to pay the price just for a solid laptop with good battery life.
