[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is replacing my 7 year old flex 14, which is still in great shape, but just can't keep up with the apps anymore. I'm very happy I picked this laptop. It is fast and lighter than I expected. Even though I bought this as a personal device, its main use is working from home. As an IT professional I need to multitask and this does it very well!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The day I received this laptop I immediately unpacked, charged it and bottled it up. Coming from a much dated laptop (Core 2 Duo era), this was like stepping out of the Stone Age. I’ve had great computers for work and a powerful tower, but never a laptop like this. The weight makes it easy to transport. The speed was the first thing I noticed, and am really enjoying the fingerprint to unlock all the time, I do regret not getting a larger storage drive, but that is simple enough to upgrade. I was able to get a great price and would totally buy and recommend this computer to anyone. The graphics may not be the best for gaming, but I only use consoles which made this one an easy decision. Buy it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this as a replacement for my work laptop and it has been a life changer! I'm a software engineer so I needed a laptop that can handle resource intensive applications . After a few weeks of using this laptop, I can say that I'm impressed with how well it performs. It can run all the applications that I need to run without getting too loud or overheating.
I also love its sleek and modern design and it's super lightweight. I would've liked a bigger screen, but this was not a deal breaker as I'm usually plugged into monitors anyways.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] cool machine, runs very cool and quite, no over heating, no underclocking. Only gripe is matte screen can have too low contrast for actual color work.
Bought this laptop to work from home, connected it with two monitors and I was happy with the performance, which was faster than the ThinkPad T14s Gen 2 Intel. I also liked the keyboard layout. Battery was poor - lasted around 3 hours but that was expected. My main problem was the AMD Radeon Graphics Driver: the mouse pointer was white and invisible on citrix workspace, which I used to connect to Windows 10 for my work, and the separation between windows were occasionally glitched.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
