Best value/reliability for a high-end workstation
on January 4, 2021
Posted by: Thomas in Austin
I've been using this machine for just over a week now and it's glorious. Went with the i9 and 32g of ram with a mirrored RAID and UHD display. Using this for web development so I went with the lowest graphics card (1000), but it still runs 3 screens beautifully at max res/refresh rates with no issue. At any given time I have Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, Outlook, Slack, Filezilla, 15 browser tabs, several instances of gulp & some other odds and ends running. Fan spins up here and there, but otherwise it runs all of the above without taxing the cooling system. I did a lot of research before this purchase and Lenovo really has the best machines on the market right now. Extremely happy with this unit. Only downside is the CTRL/FN keys are swapped on the left side of the keyboard, but it's an easy fix in the bios to switch them so CTRL is in the bottom left corner. The flashing red light on sleep is a nice touch for a machine that performs like a Cyberdyne T-1000.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have never seen another keyboard on the planet has the Fn button in the bottom corner and the Ctrl button the second button in. I keep trying to copy and paste or undo, and it never works because I'm hitting Fn+C = HUGE PAIN. Other then that the computer seems to function well so far.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This large powerful laptop definitely fits in the category of "desktop replacement". It even has a number pad, I love it! I bought it for work, and wanted something that will be fast enough to have a long useful life. I carry it to other rooms in the house, but never travel with it; I have a secondary (smaller) laptop for travel.
I love the large screen and the powerful CPU (i7) with seperate GPU. Good for occasional video editing. Battery life is good. I like having the trackpoint, although it has that issue where it just stops working every once in a while. Seems to be a common complaint.
Immediately added an extra 1TB M2 drive for more storage.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been happy with the P17 I recently purchased. It was the only Thinkpad model I was able to find that supported the graphics cards I was looking for. The screen is wonderful, and I'm excited to have a trackpoint once again.
I feel I must disclose that I received rewards points for writing this review.
I would recommend this to a friend!
