[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very happy with this computer. It is the perfect size (I downsized from 15.6 screen), performs tasks quickly, doesn't have a lot of bloatware, great color and screen picture, and I love the backlit keys. And it has long battery life. (8 hours), which I really was looking for. Little pricey, but you get what you pay for. Only had 3 weeks but highly recommend.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great laptop replacing an old Microsoft Surface tablet. Haven't tried it much with the keyboard flipped around yet, but size is perfect and build quality is great!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It seems to be a great computer, but it came defective - screen shakes laterally, very much, to the point of being unusable. I sent it back for repair.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works great right out of the box, but I am worried about the durability of the hinge over the lifetime of the product. The hinge to flip it into tablet mode already seems fairly loose, and only takes light pressure to flip. I am worried that as this project ages that hinge will become loose, and the screen will tilt over time or change positions if it is bumped. The 10 year old laptop that it is replacing has a sturdier feeling screen hinge. For a component that needs to flip 180 degrees it feels like it should be tighter.
Screen flickering at times . Apart from that speedy laptop
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] More than pleased with this Lenovo. I was looking for an 2-in-1 that was lightweight and quiet within my price range and the ThinkBook hit the sweet spot. Great mix of latest specs and still has legacy ports (HDMI, USB A type). Doesn't overheat which was a concern of mine, along with possible loud fan noise. Luckily it's been super quiet, and during high-demand processing (video editing for instance) the ThinkBook doesn't get too loud. That means great for audio recording.
The keyboard is very smooth and responsive, pleasantly surprised. The handful of downsides: battery isn't the best, but it's not horrendous. It also may be that I run too many apps at once.
The camera is fine, not stellar, but more than adequate for conference calling.
Lastly the touchpad: I'll preface by saying there really isn't a great touchpad on any Windows PC. The touchpad on the Macbook is in a league of its own. The one on the ThinkBook is...fine for a PC. It's not the best, and took a few days to get comfortable with it (the left/right click do take some conscious thought, so not as smooth as the keyboard).
Lastly I'll mention the Active Pen. The one that's built in is small, so if one is aiming to illustrate then you'd want a dedicated, larger pen. The built-in pen is great for note-taking and quick sketches and I'll say that my expectations for it were very low. Very, very pleased with how responsive and easy to use it is when note-taking and whatnot.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This 14 inch powerhouse works anywhere: desktop, table, couch or bed. All the ports for a desktop PC but compact enough for a tablet, with a full size keyboard and track pad, or the touch screen. Great sound loud or soft, bright display. I use it in the audience on my lap, but with a flip I can take it to the podium. Light weight, but solid.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This ThinkBook has the right hardware for my daily use. It is pretty light weight and the battery lasts.
