I just got my laptop from the previous deal...

So far so good?

APU: 6800H is definitely a good processor but I feel like it really isn't shining that much in this laptop. I am getting CPU Benchmarks of around 20,000 when the average is around 24,000. Furthermore, the GPU seems really weak with only access to 4 gib of memory... I would really like to squeeze out extra performance on this laptop - so if anyone has any tips I am open.

Screen: Screen is pretty good... Its 60hz but color accuracy is decent. It also works well outside and indoors.

Build quality: its "OK" definitely not XPS or ThinkPad quality. Deck has a little bit of flex but its not really that obvious. Keyboard is so easily to type on, I am able to hit max typing speed the moment I started typing on it. Touchpad is large - but still a pretty generic windows touchpad.

Battery Life: absolutely amazing. I do alot of coding and multitasking. Runs simple tensorflow code tests throughout the day without really needing to charge. On average I get around 8 hours to 9 hours of battery life.

One quirk that I found is that if you use another (non-Lenovo charger that comes out of the box) it MUST be PPS and PD3.0 or else it will charge at a meager 45 watts instead of the full wattage. On my Anker 747 it was only charging at 25 watts too... And I am not sure why.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

I also got this from the December deal. My thoughts:
  • Build quality is excellent, feels very premium.
  • Was concerned that H-series processor (I got the 6800H) would mean more heat and fan noise, but that's not the case. It runs pretty cool and is silent in normal use; even when the fan comes on (only under load) it's very quiet.
  • The display is very crisp but not very bright, at 300 nits.
  • The keyboard is excellent - not as good as the best older ThinkPads, but still very good.
  • The design of putting ports (except USB-C) in the back is good for a desktop replacement, not so much if you need to plug/unplug often.
  • Speakers and webcam are both decent, not outstanding.
  • Both IR facial recognition and fingerprint reader work great - I don't think I've ever had a miss in the 3 weeks or so I've had the unit. The fingerprint reader is built into the power button and "saves" your print for logging into Windows - so you don't have to tap it again; this is such a clever design, I'm surprised it hasn't been copied by others.
  • Mine came with a Realtek wifi card, which you should replace with an Intel one.
  • Battery life is decent but not great - figure 6-8 hours of real use.
I do have one strange issue that I haven't figured out yet - occasionally the computer will not resume from sleep, the power button just blinks but I have to do a hard shutdown and then reboot. It seems to only happen at my workplace and not at home, so maybe there's something about a device driver that's causing the issue. Hibernate works fine.

ETA: The upgrade to a 3-year warranty is just $55, to me that's well worth it.

All I can say is thank you for the elaborated review and guess you must be good at your midterm exams :-)

Damn, initially read this as a Thinkpad T14 and got excited. Still a solid deal and definitely tempting...

If it is for college student putting into laptop backpack and take it to class daily, would the quality of this good enough or need something built better like Thinkpad and hopefully can last for few years of use?

Is Thinkpad like X13, T14, etc worth the extra compare to ThinkBook?
ThinkPads are acquired taste. Some ppl loves them and think it's worth the premium. Some don't.

Thinkpad will survive a drop the floor. These will not.

Did this trigger the Amex offer email? Do you know if you have to buy from lenovo Pro website? Samsung Amex offer didn't trigger when I bought from consumer website.
