I only gave 4 stars because the first device we received had a faulty battery. However the exchange went very smoothly. This laptop was purchased by one of our Senior, lead IT staff, so the quality of the product, in every way, has to be excellent. He is very pleased with this product!
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Some issues with this laptop that Lenovo needs to sort out.
1. HDMI 2.0 port to a 4K Monitor freezes Windows at 60Hz. 30Hz works fine.
2. Laptop randomly shuts off display every 30 seconds or so even though Power setting is "Never" for Display turn off.
3. Fans run majority of the time, even on balanced power mode.

Privacy guard screen has very limited viewing angl

Verified Purchase:Yes
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The privacy guard screen is terrible. In regular mood (not privacy guard mode) it has a VERY limited viewing range - not more than a few degrees in any direction before some part of the screen starts to darken. I just had the screen replaced by an onsite service tech today. The replacement screen is no better. I am returning this machine.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been choosing to own ThinkPads going back to the 90s, and this one checks almost all the same boxes that the others have: Great keyboard, great touchpoint, well-built, adequate ports, good features, well engineered, good performance, etc. This Gen 6 is an upgrade from my well-worn Gen 1. The 3840 x 2400 screen is fantastic, and they reduced the overall size of the computer a bit while keeping the same screen size. I don't know why you would choose a 1920 screen when this one is available. Thank you for keeping an HDMI port - a lot of companies are forcing you to get a dongle to connect to non USB-C devices. The sound is remarkably good from such a small package. It's definitely quicker than the Gen 1, but not so much so that I'm saying "wow." The Gen 1 is still working well BTW.
My complaints on this one that knock off a star:
1. The aluminum exterior is nice looking, but I fear that it will not hold up to scratches and scuffs as well as the soft-touch surface of the Gen 1. It's also not black, so it's hard to call it a ThinkPad ;)
2. The power key/fingerprint reader is under the screen when closed, forcing you to open the lid, or flip it over if in tablet mode, to get to it. The side-mounted power on the Gen 1 was perfectly placed for all laptops. A side-mount power button lets you power it up when connected to dock or external monitor (yes, I know there is a power button on the dock, but I prefer to have the dock hidden away to reduce cable clutter).
3. The bluetooth is buggy. Come on Lenovo, are you telling me that nobody actually tested this thing with a bluetooth mouse or keyboard? If you stop typing or moving the mouse for >10 sec, there is a lag to the input from either the mouse (microsoft mouse) or keyboard (ThinkPad Trackpoint II). Yes, I updated, troubleshot, all that stuff - still lags.
4. No SD slot. The Gen 1 had one, even though it wasn't super easy to access. The SD slot let's you easily add a lot of storage space and transfer/read data from other devices without extra dongles/adapters.
Overall, I'm happy with this, but I think that I'll get some 3M wrap to give it a little scuff protection and a little more grip. Lenovo deserves kudos for keeping even the old models updated with drivers, so hopefully they will address the bluetooth soon on their newest ones.
I would recommend this to a friend!

So far so good. I have had several Lenovo think pads over the past decade and have not been disappointed in the quality and customer service.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The laptop hibernates every 30 sec, and I can’t figure why. I already try everything possible in settings but no change!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] No cons other than just too dang expensive! Battery needs to improve. Have fully reloaded Yoga Gen 6 but with only 16GB memory. Can't confirm if it even supports tilt for pen.
