[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was choosing between this and the 15'' one. Considering I am supposed to carry it arround a lot in the future and I want it to be light, I choose the 14'' one. So far it is very fast to start and everything goes smoothly. The integrated graphic card isn't great for gaming but it can pull off my 32'' 4k screen which is pretty enough for work. It would become a little laggy if I open zoom and multiple pdf and chorme tabs at the same time.
Pros: I have this laptop for 1.5 months, which replaced my 2013 fall Macbook Pro and I've been using it for both computational works and digital art. Very fast and lightweight laptop with great battery life and powerful speakers. Hinge is also really sturdy. I used the touchscreen for digital arts and while it's not the best I managed to make it work. I prefer 16:9 over 16:10 aspect ratio but that's my preference.
Cons: One more USB-A port and one HDMI port would be nice. Pen that came with this laptop only has 2 hour battery life and currently, none of Lenovo's pens are compatible with it as the time of this writing. I dislike the up-down-left-right keyboard layout. The touchpad is not as good as Macbook pro. And the keyboard is not as deep as I would like it to be.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the sturdy construction, and the keyboard is incredibly comfortable and responsive. The 11th Gen Intel CPU is worth getting, I was amazed at how fast and snappy the system is. I frequently use Adobe products, and the integrated video and CPU have handled a pretty heavy graphics load without so much of stutter. I am very please with my purchase.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just received my new Lenovo. Compared to my old machine which was seven years old, this machine is a joy and fun to use. I love that it's lightweight and has a garage for the stylus.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been mostly happy with the laptop, my only complaints is the wifi signal and cooling. The wifi signal is TERRIBLE, the signal strength and speed is awful, even in the same room as the router, not sure if it has a junk antenna or the wifi chip is garbage, but it is an issue. As for the cooling, when running the laptop on anything other than the lower performance battery saving settings, it starts to heat up very quickly. It has a powerful processor, but you can't really take advantage of it.
I would recommend this to a friend!
