[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great machine, nothing preloaded to have to remove, bloatware, Functions great out of the box. I decided to upgrade from 16mb, and 500mb SSD and that was also very easy, just create a backup of computer before you start which you should do anyway. My computer is maxed out at 48gb memory and 2TB SSD and is even faster than out of the box. Keyboard layout is good and comes with Cat5 cable connector and number pad that a lot of the compeditors have dropped. Overall no complaints at all.
The T16 is simply a great machine. I love the OLED display, and the keyboard is the right size for my hands. I have been a long time (15+ years) trackpoint junkie, and love the productivity that this gives me when working on my PC. Great job Lenova. Shipped on time at a great price. The smaller battery chargers make packing for my RV trips easier too!
Stay away from this laptop. The processor speed does not match up with what's advertised. The battery life is poor...perhaps 4 hours despite what's advertised. The machine is sluggish. I reached out to Lenovo for help and have received "0" responsive emails. This was supposed to be a work laptop to replace my HP that I had for 3 years but my HP works just as well as this brand new T16.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not a true 16”. It’s a real 15.6” jimmy rigged to be a true 26”. I’m extremely disappointed.

I did not realize how much Microsoft interactions and disciplines are lined up the very day I started using the ThinkPad. I do NOT like using Microsoft and I find it a pain in my back, when I found out how much Microsoft would constantly be involved with my PC.
