Great computer, battery last about 9hour while programming (and i got up to 13h while only watching movie) so really good battery, Charge super quickly , no fan noise while working and charging at the same time and doesn't become burning hot. Best keyboard i ever got on a laptop!
It is a very good laptop and works well but took a long time to get here and the delivery person didn’t sign off the package. They just left it

The T490 is a great workhorse. It has a solid physical build with good battery life and more than capable performance for business applications. Would highly recommend it to anyone who needs a durable, compact and fast work or school laptop.
It was purchased primarily for my son's virtual school and he loves it. The unit looks sleek and elegant. I will update this review after some time of usage.
Although you pay more for a Lenovo the build quality and design is worth it. This is my first Lenovo and its not only superior in build quality to other PC laptops but you can see the thought that went into the design and the hardware choices are very well supported. Im running Linux Mint and Windows on mine and it works extremely well with solid and stable performance. Based on this experience i would ceetainly buy another Lenovo in future. Oh and i love that i can choose to charge the battery to 80% only to extend its lifespan because i use mine mainly plugged in. Its also great that it retains this setting even when i boot into Linux and its not windows dependent. A great example of the thought that goes into their designs. I also had to call to ask a question about a technical specification that wasnt in the support documents and found their support to be better than average with regards to the experience and knowledge of who i spoke to.
