Any feedback on how well the touch pad works on this machine? I don’t use a mouse. I have a Dell now which I’m looking to replace or at least have a backup for and while I haven’t been happy with it overall it does have an easy to use and very responsive touch pad which is super important to me. A deal breaker really if the touch pad is poor.
Not really fair to compare this low-power AMD CPU/GPU combo against mostly i7 CPUs! The power dissipation for this CPU is only 15 watts, where, for example, the i7-4710HQ one has a TDP of 47 watts. Your laptop won’t last quite as long on that one
I picked up one of these on the last go-round. I’m coming mainly from an older Macbook. I rarely use my Dell laptop at work without a mouse. I have adapted to this Lenovo touchpad and Win 10 with little frustration. Again, I’m not hooked on any prior finger-tech, so…
Indeed, the fact that lenovo calls this a ThinkPad when it doesn’t have a trackpoint is a shame. I wouldn’t even consider buying it for that reason only.
I bought this a couple of weeks ago thru Woot ($20 more, but so it goes). Love it. Use it for general purpose internet, Office, etc. Small, solid as a brick. Display is quite reasonable. I swapped in a larger SSD and upped the memory, and it is now a perfect travel/utility computer. The processor is more than enough for these tasks.
No 10-key on the keyboard? Deal breaker for accounting/finance. Also your comment login should not capitalize the first character - doesn’t work with some email addresses.
occasionally i travel…i bought a laptop (15.6) to play small games and watch movies, look at pictures. The screen was too big to fit on the tray so i really could not use it on the airplane…will this be good enough to take on an airplane? I see it does not have a CD/DVD player but i could get a plug in USB type of player.
or any other recommendations of another machine? i dont want a chromebook.
TY
