[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] PC performance is good; I am facing an issue with Google apps on our laptop. Laptop processors create a lot of dump files if it is related to Google products, mainly Google Drive.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Now that I've had some time to use this machine, I believe I can provide an accurate review. In general, I find this machine to be an improvement over my previous laptop, although my initial expectations have not been met. The keyboard is something I particularly enjoy, although I did find it necessary to reverse the placement of the ctrl and fn keys (a design choice that is odd to me). This adjustment made me feel more comfortable using it However, I must admit that I'm not a fan of the laptop's finish. While it feels nice to the touch, it seems to attract every fingerprint imaginable. Despite my best efforts, it's as if even the slightest touch leaves behind evidence of my presence. I'm not a creature of constant greasy snacking, but you wouldn't be able to tell from the state of my laptop. Even the keys gather grease and oil, which can be annoying. I keep a stockpile of microfiber cloths on hand just to maintain its appearance.
Additionally, I've encountered an issue with Bluetooth connectivity. My headphones frequently lose connection, a problem I never experienced with my previous machine. This inconsistency has been a source of frustration, as it interrupts my workflow and forces me to troubleshoot the connection repeatedly.
In summary, while I have a positive overall impression of this machine, it falls short of the high expectations I initially had. The keyboard layout adjustment and the constant need to clean smudges detract from the otherwise positive experience. The Bluetooth connectivity issues only compound these frustrations.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Computer works fine and no issues with setup or speed. Battery life however could be better. I barely get 4 hours on it. My HP that this replaced got 6 when I retired it at 7 years old
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As always, the Thinkpad is a solid machine. I've been using them for years. Great value for the money. Durable and just plain work.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This laptop is very powerful and can do literally everything I have thrown at it so far. Works extremely fast and multi-tasks better than just about any other machine I have used. Only 2 downsides I have would be the battery life isn't the best but really because it can do so much I didn't expect an amazing battery life, and it doesn't have a numberpad which isn't a dealbreaker but because the size makes it more than capable of fitting one I don't see why it isn't just there by default.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The computer is excellent. Chosen because of the number keypad, but the tactile feel of the keys, the quick response make this a great machine.
