Review: Damn it is perfect. - OK first up, this cost less than 200 quid and is just two years old but looks and feels like a new version still. Lenovo is still one of the better work laptops around and has all the peripheral ports and plug ins including (this version) a SIM slot for roaming connectivity. Was I cautious about buying online for a refurbed laptop, but really really happy with the risk of getting something awful - knowing that there is a return policy of course. Body is in near mint condition, fast start up and set up as well _ sure Windows 11 sucks but that not the Sellers fault - blame Microsoft. Delivery was next day first thing in the morning and I have absolutely no complaints. Would 100% buy again, in fact my business partner is considering it as they bought a new laptop for work that clunks along when side by side. Down side - it is weighty - but again that is Lenovo, you can drop these machines and they will damage the concrete floor before they break (do not try this at home).
Review: Initial Review - Impressed with the quality of the item and quick delivery. On the first look this Lenovo laptop looked plasticy compared to the other models, I purchased in the past, but found it quite robust. Overall a clean device and good value for money. So far so good. Will run it for while and only then can say more about it's performance etc.Battery life seems 1/2 of that was advertised. I was wondering if the internal storage could be upgraded by installing a second hard disk ? Nevertheless I am quite satisfied with the purchase and would definitely recommend this seller.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Probably the best purchase I’ve made since I started using amazon.
*by L***N on 8 February 2025*

The amount I paid compared to what I actually got was outstanding. It’s a very powerful computer designed to help with studying and productivity, and now I can work downstairs without being forced to use my desktop.
