Well after a couple months of trying to figure out which computer I wanted to get, this is the one that I choose. Im happy that I switched my thoughts from a desktop back to a laptop. Especially for my needs. Pretty sure this will be a great computer. Tomorrow we add more memory and an extra SSD to it. Fingers crossed that all goes well!

I’m surprised they didn’t double box it. My current Lenovo Legion came from Lenovo’s website with an outer box and a fancy looking box that held the system. Hopefully the system is ok. I’ve been very happy with mine, and the service was good years ago when my first laptop from them needed fixing.

Nice video, i'd be shocked if i received a laptop box in that condition, i can't understand why it was not placed in an outer box to protect it from damage. Plus this shows everyone what you've bought, and yesi agree this box had clearly gotton badly wet and the card dried out.

After much thinking and many reviews, I got a copy of this PC. I am quite happy with it. It's just as expected in the reviews. I got the Yoga 2-1 version. The laptop is in general heavy compared to other 2-1 laptops. It's quite inconvenient in tablet mode. Also, a short glitch appears when there is a transition, for instance when a word is autocorrected. Those small things are small minor annoyments. Nevertheless, I got a huge deal when it was on sale where I bought it for half of the price. About 500 bucks, which is half the price. Currently, I recommend it.

Hi: Thanks for the video: relate to shipping/delivery & warranty coverage issues! Just testing mine out and was wondering if you noticed the touchpad makes a slight clicking sound (almost like it's loose) when sliding finger over it, but not actually clicking on it? Also, display is on the darker side and volume is lower than my existing PC, which is a bit surprising since this Lenovo Thinkbook is so much newer! Thanks for sharing your experience & info and looking forward to your feedback on the touchpad.

Hi, i am courious to know if there is going to be another review about how working on this thinkbook is. Did u actually noticed a constant fan noise? I just got my G2 thinkbook yesterday and its fan keeps running all the time even by 40°C or when im just surfing the net. After trying a lot of stuff, it did get reduced a little bit, but I still cant manage to keep it completely quiet. It would be cool if u could share any trick. :)

Bought Lenovo 13s Thinkbook Gen2 ITL in Russia local market. And its broken next day. Not charging at all. Even the indicator does not light up when I connect the charger. The only thing I managed to do before the breakdown was put the laptop into power saving mode. Has anyone come across a similar one? The laptop has been in the service center for 2 weeks now and I still have no news.
