Thinkpad for Students?

DarshanDash · May 3, 2018

Hi!

So i'm heading to University soon and i was watching a video where Linus was talking about the Lenovo Thinkpad and i did a small study and found it useful for everyday use and light gaming.

So is the thinkpad a good laptop for students? I'm heavy on programming , editing videos and light work(Typing word/presentation etc)

Yes it's a solid laptop not just students but also for everyone. In fact they have good reliability and durability. T480/T480s/T580/P52s all are good options to consider. Mind you, the base model only comes with entry level IPS (some regions have 768p TN panel option), however they are also offered with optional high resolution panel. If you need more power, wait for P52 with CFL-H CPU

I work with Thinkpads every day at work. We have a lot of users who work with them. they're reliable and if you have some decent specs you'll be able to do a lot of work on them. The keyboard feels okay and the weight is low.
