Encased in a premium aluminum chassis, I found its minimalist design exuded professionalism but looked contemporary and sleek.
Its lightweight buildjust 2.7 poundsis perfect for taking on the go.
Typing on it felt more like a chore than it should’ve been.

It felt loose rather than springy.
The glass surface touchpad, which measured approximately 2.95 by 4.72 inches, felt better than the keyboard.
The touchscreen display was also fairly smooth, though it had slightly delayed responsiveness at times.

But since it’s a glossy screen, I experienced significant glare in particular environments.
During gaming, the graphics were equally impressive.
Darker games had a nice contrast and still looked crisp.

Productivity wasn’t far behind, with a score of 7,951.

This, accompanied by Dolby Atmos, made the speakers a joy to listen to.
At 100%, the sound quality sounded a bit muddier than I’d liked.

Nonetheless, the ThinkBook had an average to decent battery life when I used it.
Charging was speedier than the drain rate.
