Lenovo ThinkPad P50

I own a ThinkPad P50 and I can say that you can always count on it. Two years down the line and it has never failed once.

It seems like a great laptop but I'm having issues with a lot of basic things. My biggest issue is that I can't change the display brightness. I can adjust the slider but it doesn't effect anything. Also none of the Fn functions work (like wifi toggle, camera toggle, settings, ect.) besides my volum...

A used work station like a lenovo thinkpad from the p range or a HP zbook no more than a few years old and get the best spec you can find.

If you are looking for a Thinkpad P50 this is configuration to get - the base model. The laptop has easy access to the hard drive and ram so you can upgrade it yourself for much cheaper. I had Thinkpads in the past and currently have a Retina MBP. I decided to come back to Thinkpads since they are a...

Also, it's graphics card isn't good enough to run a few games I'd like to play (Civ 6, Ori & the Blind Forest, Journey). Not sure if that's specifically something I'll have to look for or if all modern computers will be up to the task. I'm in the US, looking for something <1K.

Excellent machine. With good construction, good specs, I have been using it for 6 months, and it has not dissapointed me. Very powerful machine, the best thinkpad for now, still not like the ones in the past. The only problem I found was the touchpad does not allow me to move the mouse when I am usi...

My Thinkpad p50 is still my mobile workstation of choice. 6 years and kicking, and it got me through college in CS and two years of web developer so far.

This machine is a great work horse. It has lots of power per dollar and is built well. However, the 500 GB 7200 RPM makes this system drag. I upgraded to an SSD right away. Now it screams! I am a power user and I video edit with Adobe Primere and Record with Pro Tools 12.5. It handles these tasks we...
