This really isn't a gaming laptop. It's more a budget creator laptop. But it can probably play most games at 1080p at low settings. The problem is that Lenovo kept the exact naming scheme for like 3 years so it is very hard to find reviews for this specific model. Luckily for you, I like to do research before I buy stuff. 😁
Yes, it is a real item. The listing was just like that when I bought mine a couple of weeks ago. Don't worry, the specs are exactly as they are listed on Lenovo's website: https://www.lenovo.com/us/outletu...82vbx001us[lenovo.com]
Cool, thanks. I'm looking to upgrade my old lenovo yoga laptop. I do 3d scanning/processing and need something portable with the horsepower that wont sit there churning while using my 3d scanner.
this is with 13 GEN i7 processor with 16 GB and 1 TB SSD with thinkpad brand same refurb @ $525.
which is better ? can someone help please...
Vs the Lenovo ThinkPad T14s that you posted, the Slim 7 has:
- More cores/threads (20 vs 12)
- 16GB more RAM
- Dedicated GPU (entry level though)
- Larger, better resolution screen (16" 2560x1600 120Hz)
- Larger battery (75Wh vs 57Wh)
The ThinkPad T14s has:
- Newer processor (13th gen i7 vs 12th gen i7)
- 1 extra USB-C Thunderbolt port
- Better webcam
- Kensington slot
So spec-wise, the Slim 7 is better overall I would say. Also, bear in mind that the Slim 7 is going to be considerably heavier than the T14s.

I bought yours instead so thanks for the link. Knowing it's not as good as the OP's, but saving almost $50 and having a lighter and smaller (14") laptop for a college kid is a better option for me.
I would recommend against buying a Lenovo based on my recent experience. Lenovo is no longer a reliable company and does not stand behind its products. As follows:
The new computer I ordered arrived 3 weeks after it was supposed to. I was notified of many delays. Then I didn't use it for a couple of weeks. I used it about 6 times, and it now says it can't fix itself. I tried to call them. They have very short business hours. I called technical support. They gave me back to the other number. Customer Service TOLD ME IT WAS PAST THE 30 DAY RETURN AND I HAD TO GET IT REPAIRED. I said I've been trying to call them and tech gave me their #. I had to go Karen and ask for a supervisor. The same agent eventually said he'd forward my issue. I immediately sent him emails that showed the "can't fix it" loop. Now I'm waiting to hear back from them so I can ship it back for a refund for this POS. He tried repeatedly to get me to send it to tech people to have it repaired. I said I don't trust this machine. I need a machine that I know will work because I have work and I can't afford to be dicking around with fix-it BS on a bad computer I used 6 times. I don't know what has happened to them. I'd say it's garbage Chinese stuff. Seriously. The store it shipped from was The Chinese Store. Lenovo has gone to the dark side. AND if it's refurbished you have 15 DAYS to decide to return it or guess what? It's yours forever.
I spent over $1000 on that machine. The Customer Service agent said something along the lines of A STORE CREDIT. I want nothing from them. I need to figure out how to fight this. The tech support people literally sounded tired when I explained what happened. I get the feeling that they're hearing stories like this a lot. So I think, given these responses, I'm anticipating being jerked around as much as conceivably possible until they wear me down, and Ithink this is their business model. I'm not willing to throw $1000+ down the drain and I will not reinvest it in a company that has failed so miserably. I'm worried. If you have any suggestions, please tell me.
