Lenovo ThinkPad E550 review

 

This mobile workstation is powerful, attractive and surprisingly affordable

Smart build quality ; Good performance levels ; Battery life is impressive

No SSD option ; Screen is only a TN panel ; DisplayPort output would have been nice

Great CPU and graphics performance for the money, an adequate display and solid build quality make the E550 surprisingly impressive.

Lenovo ThinkPad Edge E550 Notebook Review

 

Two steps forward, one step back. Lenovo replaces a standard CPU with a ULV processor in yet another ThinkPad. Thus, the Edge E550 sacrifices some performance in favor of power consumption and emissions. The inexpensive office laptop nevertheless makes...

Stiff casing build, Docking station port, Fast Wi-Fi, Crisp keyboard, Very low temperature and noise development

Minor flaws in build, Dark, viewing angle dependent screen, Slower than the precursor, 12-month warranty only

Of course, buyers cannot expect the quality of a two to three times more expensive business model from a laptop for just below 550 Euros (~$583) - even if both bear the image-laden ThinkPad label in their name. Lenovo has nevertheless managed to set up...

Lenovo ThinkPad E550 (Core i7, Radeon R7 M265) Notebook Review

solid chassis, docking station connector, fast WLAN, responsive keyboard, good performance, low temperature and noise

dark display with low viewing angle stability, slow hard drive, comperatively high price, 12-month warranty

At a purchase price of 1000 Euro (~$1100), the top-model in the E550-series can't be considered entry-level any longer and accordingly, expectations run pretty high. Unfortunately, the ThinkPad can't quite measure up.

Lenovo ThinkPad E550

 

It is a robust laptop

It is quite heavy, but I suppose should be expected for the robustness of it. The touchpad 'mouse' is not as responsive as Id like it to to - it seems to have a 'sweet spot' and if you dont hit it right, it doesnt work properly. Seems pretty slow to...

I bought this laptop when I started a new contract, and it's been absolutely fine and does everything I ask of it. Highly recommended.

It works well and feels nice.

So far I can't use Internet Explorer. It's not working and I haven't been able to unistall it so far, so I downloaded Google Chrome instead.
