[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's a real pleasure and peace of mind having Lenovo's top of the line T490 as my trusted companion in my life, both for professional and personal work, it's so powerful yet so light, fast and manageable. A real jewel, I'm very fond and admire it's elegant and beautiful design, it's a delight to bring along, an incredible enabler never to be left behind!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought to eventually replace my 15 year old ThinkPad T-43 that is still going strong, albeit a mite slow, that cannot upgrade to Windows 10. My new T490, is thin, light, and very fast, comparatively speaking. Setup was a breeze.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an excellent laptop for personal and professional use.
The ThinkPad T490 has the general look and feel of the ThinkPad family with a soft black paint finish and the same sturdiness like the X1 Carbon.
The keyboard is a typical “ThinkPad keyboard” with all the goodness that comes with it: comfortable 1.3mm key-travel, curved keys, and spill-proof. In short, it has an impeccable typing experience. This keyboard is backlit (2 levels of brightness) is very handy at night, in bed, or in a plane. It is a great typing experience.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have purchased mostly IOS, but I decided to purchase a window based product. The Lenovo T-490 is an excellent laptop. I was pleased with the easy and seamless setup process. I also liked not having to delete Norton and install windows virus software myself (was already installed). Fast computer, very easy to use.
