Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 2 20XK0069US 14" Touchscreen Notebook - Full HD - 1920 x 1080 - AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 5850U Octa-core (8 Core) 1.90 GHz - 16 GB Total RAM - 512 GB SSD - Storm Gray

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love Lenovo for both business and pleasure, and this sleek little member of the family is no exception. Does everything I need it to do. The only drawback I see is the inability to upgrade the RAM, or replace it easily if it fails (it's soldered in). But 16gb is plenty for what we usually do with it. But for the price I paid, I'm not complaining!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this after not being able tog et my X1C I really wanted. Usually Lenovo has some logistics issues since a lot of assembly happens off-shore (US Purchase), but this time it was saying 4+ months even though when I placed the order is said something like a handful of weeks. I was really frustrated and contact support and ended up having to cancel my order. Thankfully an agent helped my find a similar computer and now I got this build here. Its form factor is very similar to that of the X1C (except the fiberglass rather than carbon fiber). It also is super upgradeable and great build quality overall. Overall the AMD processor does a good job of staying cool, but I've noticed the battery is not as great as stated (specially not on the 4k screen model). But keeping it in battery saver mode (it really is a fast computer and does well under most circumstances even in this mode) helps a lot. The screen is really nice, but compared to other 4k screens its matte finish really makes it feel dull, it still is wonderful overall. It is a very light and compact build, with a very nice keyboard and includes home, insert, and delete keys as well as pgup/pgdown. The lower price point including the TB drive as well as 24gb ram, was a good touch and I got the device for a good value. I always recommend getting a computer with Lenovo's accident protection. They do a good job of honoring their services and I recommend it to all my clients when recommending them ThinkPads, it'll save you a bunch of headaches. Although it is not the X1C, the 8 core ryzen9 processor is so nice doing a great job of curving its power usage, and the graphics are pretty decent. And its a lot more expandable than the X1C. Aside from the unpleasantness of not getting what I originally wanted, and a shorter battery life, I'm very happy with this purchase. Do note, the battery charges crazy fast which really helps in that area.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the bright, non-touch, matte finish screen. Notice some jitter at times before getting the NVMe driver updates. Suspend with Windows 11 can be a bit tricky with the face id keeping it from going to sleep. I'm multi-booting. Sleep doesn't work properly with Linux. (It won't wake back up) Development and productivity tools work well. I am seeing some jitter with some browser games. But a couple of the (low end) PC games I've installed run fine. Battery life has been great. I've been surprised with how fast the battery recharges. The trackpoint is great for scrolling websites.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Powerful work horse for a decent price. The thinkpad keyboard is great as always. The screen is bright and clear. The only design issue i can think of is the usb-c power port/power cord. It looks very delicate and I don't think it would survive an accidental tug. I did hit a bluescreen the second day of using it. It probably was because i hadnt updated all the required drivers. After doing a full software/driver upgrade, i haven't face any issue. I am running Win10 now. Waiting for the certified linux release for this laptop.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's hard to complain about a T-series that keeps some of the things I love most about them: a TrackPoint, long battery life, and a top-notch keyboard. Unlike some other modern ThinkPads, this one kept 1.8mm key travel and the experience of typing on it is still excellent. As a software engineer, this is extremely important to me. The CPU is astounding too. It responds nicely to power and frequency scaling in a very linear fashion, allowing users to greatly increase battery life with a proportional degradation in performance, or vice versa. If there was anything I'd change about it, it would be the newer rubberized finish. It feels like it might wear off a bit, not like it's part of the texture of the material itself. The T480s I just came from, and some others that I've owned felt better to the touch and seemed like I could clean them without damaging the finish, which I worry about with this one.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There are small issues with network connections, the laptop is light, fast, keyboard is swapped a bit so the CTRL key is not on the same place as others which is a bit confusing, but overall a good laptop so far.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine has a good balance of the features I was looking for. I wanted a screen that would work outdoors and it does, except in the brightest sunlight. The resolution of the screen is gorgeous. It does drain the battery faster though, as a result -- I can get about 4-5 hours if I stretch it. The keyboard isn't as good as the old-school Thinkpad keyboards but it's better than anything else I've found since. And the processor runs circles around most of the Intel offerings I benchmarked it against.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This laptop appears to work well with Windows. Unfortunately, I want to use it with Linux, and the wireless chipset is so bleeding edge that I would have to compile my own kernel to be able to use it. The only way to get the wireless card to work under Linux right now appears to be to install a sketchy third party driver, which is very disappointing -- I thought Lenovo laptops would have better Linux support! I was able to get this to work, but I expect most regular users would be extremely baffled by the problem.

Overall decent laptop, but the inferior keyboard really makes you wonder why Thinkpad still exists as a brand. Aside from the control key being in the wrong place, the key travel is terrible and basically feels as bad as a Mac. Why buy a Thinkpad again? Aren't they supposed to have good keyboards? In addition to the poor keyboard, the USB ports on this machine are very finicky, which caused the BIOS to fail to post when a USB hub was connected.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far so good, however i did get the blue screen of death as soon as I plugged it in. Since then i haven't plugged it in while it is on. I will just to test, if it is a recurrent issue, i might have to return it. Very light and extremely good resolution, really like it besides that issue
