Lenovo ThinkBook 15: A decent laptop for first-timers

You know those bulky, yet functional office laptops for employees? The Lenovo ThinkBook 15 is one such device, and is targeted at small businesses, though individuals and students can also buy them.

You wouldn’t call the ThinkBook 15 a particularly sleek device. At 1.8 kg, it’s heavy with a metallic top cover, but the overall design feels rather plastic-like. It does, however, fit the definition of a modern notebook, but at a cheaper price point, starting at around ₹31,000.

The same goes for the laptop’s performance. Lenovo offers up to 24GB RAM and up to the 10th generation Intel Core i6 hexa core processor. Our review unit was the i7 version, and it was more than enough to run Microsoft Office apps and Google Docs, and for web browsing, media streaming, etc.—essentially, for most home, student or office use cases.
