You can't beat Lenovo for security. After reinstalling a clean OS we found a Chinese key logger program embedded in the hardware was trying to get details on passwords on a fresh OS builds. We found this on about 30% of the 1000 Lenovo Laptops we brought! After that we sent them back and removed every other Lenovo device we had!

Member for 1 hour, 35 minutes, this is your only post.

You'll excuse me not believing your comment. 300 laptops with a hardware keylogger.

While Lenovo (among many hardware suppliers) have been recently getting caught out with fishy practices, I would expect that the world of technological security firms would have noticed your claims with reports of 30% of Lenovo machines with a 'hardware' keylogger. However, I am not aware of this 'issue', and a further search of more obscure ends of the hardware security world I can still find no reference to this.

Given your lack of supporting information about this claim leads me to believe either you don't know what you are talking about or that you have had a bad experience with them in some other way and just want to spew venom in a public forum.

However, what I suspect you mean is the software install ability offered by Windows Binary Platform Table in the UEFI. This is where the systems would install various bits of Lenovo software which arguably were of little/no use, but none of which being keyloggers like your claim. Additionally the removal of this 'problem' is well documented and easy to roll out to solve it.

So the issue remains that if you are going to badmouth the company at least get your facts straight. I'd love to know which company you have gotten your systems supplied by since.

this thing will last YEARS. I just wish my old Dell E-Series would die so I had an excuse to buy it :disappointed:

You'll be waiting a while then, this is the downside of buying business models that it's harder to justify an upgrade.

Only thing I don't like is the Trackpad. Nowhere near as good as the older models(T420/430)

450GBP for a laptop without Full HD screen? I think it's a bit too expensive

ttbaxxx to ro888

29 Mar 16 #14

it's not a laptop, it's a beast of a machine

SilverBandit to ro888

Do you really need FHD on a 14" screen? 1600x900 is fine.

I still have a t41 that works, 10 years!!! bought a t520 for a friend 7 years ago still works fine. T series won't go wrong, they are expensive for a reason. Just bought a 440 last week with 8GB ram and SSD for £400 with 17 months warranty left on it, it's brilliant

29 Mar 16 1 #11

Warning T series can run very hot - i.e. too hot for a lap. Components burning our very common. ThinkPad is just a brand with a great TrackPoint and good keyboards but not the same build quality of old.

Hope they're better built than the last 2 lenovo's I've purchased. One lasted 3 weeks, I'm in the process of repairing the other one that's just over a year old. There's no metal reinforcement at all. Not a wonder it's falling apart.

What are you doing to them, throwing them off a building?
Our company buys masses of these after moving from Dell. They are business laptops and get absolutely hammered, yet have been faultless on the whole, and once the warranty ends they flog them off to staff for £60 each and give the proceeds to charity.
There's always a long queue of people wanting these.
Next month they're selling off the last of the T430 i5 laptops, then they'll start flogging off the T440 i7's near the end of the year. I always buy one for family members each time as although they are fugly, they are damn reliable

Are you sure those were Thinkpads? You can't compare business laptops like Thinkpads with consumer laptops which retail at £1k+.
All the Thinkpads I've worked on had (often magnesium) roll cages inside and don't fall apart, dropped mine on the corner and case cracked but still no flex on chassis.

These things are the old-fashioned Volvo's of laptops:
nothing fancy but they keep going forever (8hrs a day for 4 years getting carried around and travelling) and the failure rate is very low and when they fail it's easy to get them repaired

Got a Lenovo from John Lewis 29th Nov 2013, screen went 27th November 2015. Good job JL give 2 yr warranty on laptops. Not sure I would buy one again at £750.

For the price and balance (?) of warranty price looks good,

you can definitely upgrade, these laptops retailed for £1319 last year

Doesnt look like you can upgrade memory or hard drive from lack of access underneath?

Waterboy8535 to splatsplatsplat

29 Mar 16 #4

Yes you can, you just remove the base cover complete

beenybops to splatsplatsplat

29 Mar 16 #5

It is easy to remove the base to access the HDD and SODIMM slot. There are only 8 screws as far as I can remember. I think the first 4GB of memory is hardwired to the motherboard so you can add a single 8GB SODIMM to increase it to 12GB.

every lenovo T series comes with special software that verifies warranty once you turn it on. I have 2 of them. Seller look reputable plus on ebay you have full money back guarrantee. The cheapest I found the same one is £599 online.
These are a steal at $449 even with 2 years warranty. I would never buy another brand laptop.

Not really three years warranty as they were bought in Aug 2015, but even so, very good machines.
