[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very thin! A bit hefty for the size, though it is packing in an i7 with the needed cooling apparatus for a higher performing cpu. Hinges could be a bit stiffer but don't feel weak. Sturdy feel overall. Nice titanium lid, premium business look and feel. The chasis and handrest area both resist fingerprints pretty well. Trackpad is smallish. The boxier aspect ratio (3:2) of the display makes the tablet mode more ergonomic and natural than 16:9 2-in1s. Keyboard travel is a little shallow compared to other ThinkPad's but not as 'chicklety' as a MacBook. Display is bright and crisp, good contrast, screen is glossy, the included pen works well and keeps your fingerprints off the screen, the magnetic pen holder is novel, but seems impractical for real world use since the pen can be removed very easily. A pen-house in the chasis would be better but then the computer size would increase. Speakers sound adequate for their size. Camera is high resolution and maybe the best built in laptop camera I have seen thus far, but I only have been reviewing cameras for a year or since the Covid 19 lockdown and video meetings became important. Performance is snappy though could be a little smoother, this is the case with most ultra compact computers though. This would not be a good computer for the "power users" like graphic artists or CAD users, but should tackle average to heavy work usage like a champ. Lenovo Vantage is installed which has useful system features like hardware updates and system monitoring and troubleshooting, thankfully not much else is preinstalled. Ports are sorely missing! No USB-A ports. It has 2 Thunderbolt 4 ports, a nice dock with a variety of ports is a recommended option.
That's about it, the laptop is a pleasing mix of look and feel, design, portability and has a very solid display. A couple of sacrifices were made in the name of portability, but this was still a good purchase overall.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cool idea, but it doesn’t really feel premium. The top cover is so thin that it was permanently warped slightly when I received the laptop, one corner of the display was bent upwards. Top cover/display didn’t line up right with the laptop’s body when the laptop was closed. Also, the display loosely slapped against the bottom of the laptop when in tablet mode. Coming from Macs, I expected the build quality to be similar considering the price of this laptop. I was ultimately disappointed and I returned it to Lenovo who were very helpful in that process. Maybe wait for the second or third generation of this product.
Also, this isn’t Lenovo’s fault and they are very clear about the dimensions of the laptop, but the 3:2 aspect ratio makes it very square and finding a sleeve that fits it might be harder than you think.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Arrived new out of box with rattling sound from right speaker when driven by midrange frequencies. Super duper high-price warranty service sent a very expert tech who diagnosed and fixed the problem. BY DESIGN, the speaker is not damped or fixed to chassis, it just floats in the provided space. It rattles by design. Double sticky tape fixed the problem. Lenovo, try a dab of adhesive during assembly. Otherwise good computer.
