Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga

The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga Gen 7 boasts a sleek design, but falls short in refinement, with sharp edges that detract from its otherwise attractive appearance. The laptop's convertible nature and extensive I/O options are notable highlights. However, the presence of a traditional trackpoint (nipple) may be seen as outdated, given the superior performance of modern touchpads. This review aims to provide an in-depth assessment of this business-focused device, considering both its strengths and weaknesses.

Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 2

The Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 2 is an iterative update to the previous model, boasting improved specs without a redesign. This ultrabook features deep key travel and a comfortable keyboard, making it a solid choice for those who value typing experience. The device also packs plenty of ports, including Ethernet, which is a rare feature in modern ultrabooks. However, some drawbacks include higher temperatures and louder fan noise than average, as well as relatively short battery life compared to its competitors.
