Lenovo ThinkPad E14 Gen 2 Review

Comfortable keyboard ; Perky performance

Slightly overweight ; AC adapter uses lone USB-C port ; No SD or microSD card slot ; Lacks 4K screen option

The price is right, but Lenovo's ThinkPad E14 Gen 2 could stand to lose at least half a pound and gain another USB Type-C port.

Lenovo ThinkPad E14 Review: Too Boring and Expensive to Compete

I've always been a fan of ThinkPad laptop designs. But with more than a dozen different base variations on sale at any given time, some will inevitably be better than others. The ThinkPad E14 falls into the latter category. While its older, more...
