[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sold Performer! Nothing slows it down! This is used by our finance department and they are doing 10's of thousands of cell computations in excel and this makes it so much faster than all other workstations we have used. Solid build quality and decent battery life.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm very happy with this machine, for my typical home use case. It is lightweight, touch screen, very clear picture, smooth operation. No complaints. It is not the highest horsepower machine out there but for the price it's pretty dang good and I'm playing Civilization 6 on it without trouble.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The ThinkBook seems to be a perfect compromise between quality and features, and price. It's a solid family or business laptop. I would highly recommend a ThinkBook to any one looking for a quality laptop an affordable price.
It works well with my Levovo Thunderbolt 3 docking station to setup multiple screens using the USB C communication port (which is what the ThinkPad also uses for it's main power supply cable), which I typically use for my Thinkpad CAD machine.
I've tried several of the cheap $400 to $600 entry level laptops, and they never seem to last more than a few months prior to having some type of issue that makes them run like molasses. With this ThinkBook coming in around $750 to $850 (if decently equipped), it is well worth the extra money.
The ThinkBook is a large step up in quality and general feel compared to the IdeaPad my wife's work just bought her. Don't know why any business would opt for an IdeaPad over the ThinkBook. The couple hundred dollars in upfront capital cost they save with the IdeaPad will just cost them many thousands more in in down time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pleasantly surprised with quality at the price point. I've had a number of Thinkpads over the years and know how well they hold up. This is actually my first Thinkbook. I was a little hesitant to pull the trigger since I had never laid my hands on one. But I'm pretty happy with the purchase. The keyboard types well, screen is good quality, and it's plenty fast (starts up in seconds). I'm a career IT guy and web developer. I was looking for something moderately price to replace my expensive Dell XPS that went bad out of no where.
