This laptop has a great keyboard and screen quality
I received this computer in new condition. I have been using it for about a week and so far I am extremely happy. I have never been someone who liked watching TV on a laptop, that is until now. I have watched easily 18 hours of Netflix on this laptop in just the short time I have had it. the screen quality is great and it is just so easy to use. It is very fast and responsive as well.So far I have had two minor issues with it. It has shut down a couple of times when I was watching Netflix, out of the blue. It was losing WiFi signal and auto restarting. I think I have fixed the issue by changing some settings. I have also called the ISP and they changed some settings on the router as well. I am still experiencing poor WiFi signal but the laptop has not shut down since making these changes.There is some bloatware but it isn't too bad and some people might find it helpful. I have configured things to my liking for the most part. At first I was getting a ton of notifications. I have also personalized my tiles etc. The settings are easy to find and the operating system is dare I say it, better than Windows 7, still some annoying features but there are many that I like.Overall, I would highly recommend this laptop. It is fast and powerful, the OS is pretty slick and easy to use and it is light and well built.

High performance, pretty good keyboard, bad camera placement, squeaky touchpad
I develop software and bought this machine because a lot of the tools I use are memory and CPU intensive (IDEs, Docker containers, etc.), and it has not disappointed! In my spare time I also play around with Unreal Engine 4 and a lot of 4K games, and it's a dream there as well; very good performance.I love the keyboard. It's not as good a keyboard as my trusty old Samsung RC512, but it's very comfortable and gives me the feedback I'm looking for. I have no problems typing on it all day every day, and have no problems touch typing on it.My only complaints are about the camera, touchpad, and product label on the bottom. The camera is placed directly below the screen (a so called "nose cam"). Since my team is remote (and now working from home because of COVID) I am on Zoom all the time, so this placement is awful. It is the most unflattering angle, and any time you are taking notes during a meeting it looks like giant fingers are reaching out to attack the camera like in a bad "invasion from outer space" B-sci-fi flick.The touchpad itself isn't bad, but the left mouse button is both squeaky and feels cheap. The button is supported more toward the center-right than the left, so if you press down on the left mouse button too far to the left of center it squeaks, might not detect a click, and can get partially stuck. Just needed a bit more care in the engineering to making it better. It's not horrible, but it could be better.Lastly, about a month after I got it I noticed that the product label on the right side of the bottom of the unit (i.e. "right side" as in the side of the unit where the numpad is) was starting to peel off at the corner of the label. Since it's a spot where there's a lot of friction from resting on your lap, it would have been great if they had used a more durable label. I've tried adhering it with some strategically placed packaging tape but that, too, is peeling off. For a laptop that costs $1,200 to $1,500 you'd hope that the label would stay intact for at least the first year.

This machine is a beast.
This machine is a beast, incredibly fast, more then enough storage and big memory. No mumbo jumbo, no stupid stuff no touch screen just a straight forward fast machine with great storage and great memory. Battery life is desent, just a little heavy but that's doesn't brother me.

Gamers Beware
Computer worked great until it started having a much-documented software glitch that has yet to be resolved in online forums or through contact with Lenovo customer service.Long story short, the CapsLck and NumLck keys trigger a pop-up notification that cannot be disabled and freezes the screen. This is a huge problem for gaming or animating programs that rely on the keys for various functions.After searching through online forums, I have yet to find a resolution and many of the previous posts about this issue remain unaddressed.

solid power, flimsy keyboard
I have the 32mb 1gig version and it does fine for office and some online game play. it get noisy when the the fans kick in to supercool but performance if fine. Keyboard is flimsy, after weeks the one of the arrow keys popped off and it took me some dumb luck to get it back on without damage. I feel f I have a long sleeve button shirt that if I catch it on the keyboard a key might pull off. It's also a bit heavy if you are looking for the new sleek look. Since I don't travel a lot sizr/weight is not a issue. If you are looking for sleek and power expect to pay almost double for it.

good speakers
I stupidly broke the screen of my work laptop: a Gigabyte Aero 15x. While it was getting fixed (took forever and 380USD, way too much), I needed another laptop. I went for this one to give it a try, because it was similar: small, powerful, and a bit cheaper. Well, I am very satisfied, it looks solid and the speakers are unexpectedly powerful for a computer this small.
