[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Laptop has a great value for performance to price ratio. It's equipped with i7 processor, so for price below 1000$ is great.
However little disappointed with battery life. From fully charged, half an hour later it drop to approx. 60% , when using for internet browsing and Word typing.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This computer does what I need it to do. However, the MacAffee software was a big hurdle in getting my remote work software in order. The software seemed to be the culprit of first stalling and halting all programs, and eventually not letting my computer startup at all.
I had to have my employer's IT dept help in sorting it all out.
When listening to music or doing anything with audio, the speakers make a "buzzing" noise and freezes momentarily while doing so. For having spent a good amount of $, it is not worth it to have speakers that don't work and freezes the laptop.
I even got a replacement for the original one that I bought because it was doing this, but even the replacement does the same thing. Therefore, it is an issue with all of these laptops. I do not recommend. My $200 Samsung chrome book can handle more than this laptop.

handsome; keyboard shortchanged for business use

This 15-inch ThinkBook is a handsome machine. My problem: Lenovo eliminated 4 dedicated keys: Home, End, PgUp, PgDn. Now these keys can only be used with the Fn key. This is not workable for navigating spreadsheets and word processing. Also the numeric keypad is too narrow, compared to the ThinkPad, which I used for years, so when I try to hit the right-most keys, my finger hits the frame instead. I think these features should be restored to qualify it once again as a business machine.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a Lenovo before, and am so impressed at how much faster this newer model is. Also, I DID NOT have to have the arrow key and the Shift Key switched so that I could actually type! Big improvement!
