Wow was literally just looking these up since last bought the intel version back in 2017 and was impressed with its ruggedness
I have an earlier version that's almsot 4 years old. still works... (slow, but good enough for what I use it for) It's so rugged.... I've dropped it from the kitchen table at least 3 times.(including one time that my cat pushed it off the table with the charging cable attached) Other than some minor scratches, it continued to work.
I think these were originally designed for high school or middle school class rooms, so they were quite rugged.
It's more than 3 pounds, which is a lot for something with a tiny 11.6-inch glossy screen.(which, by the way, is IPS and has really good colors and viewing angles... even better than some $600 13-inch laptops from 2020)

Yeah but im wondering if they put the same glossy screens on these as those earlier intel models.. I also had the amd model and I wanna say it was 1080 resolution although not a touch screen but it was a matte finish screen that was great in my opinion. Zero gloss and I preferred that.

good luck with that.... I have never been able to figure out which Lenovo comes with what... too confusing...
my old one had the nice gloss IPS touchscreen. when I bought it, I had no idea what screen I was getting.(per Slickdeals rules... buy first, ask questions later )

Would you happen to know if this version would qualify for windows 11 upgrade

Thanks, I had actually found that out last night. Thing looks like a decent value. I just appreciate the build on these things. Wonder why so little love. Its not pretty but its a tank.
"...5% paypal and 1.5 r a k u t e n cashback tipped the scales..."
What is your intended use for it?
Really just want something with a sturdy build to take on trips or around the house and not worry about dropping the thing. I have the 2nd gen I believe and looks exactly the same from what im seeing. It just lacks some of the minor updates this one has but I wanna say I paid $200 for it back in 2016 through woot. After cashback promos looking at about $355 otd for this guy.

although the process is kind of old, from early 2020.(or late 2019?)

Nice ethernet port!

Also, usb-c charging should work.
