I purchased this laptop to replace a windows 7 machine and it has been a great replacement. Faster than former laptop with 12 GB of memory and streams video really well. Lacks an HDMI output, which is odd and unexpected, and battery life is predictably mediocre, but performance is otherwise very good. Can't tell that it's a referbished item.
This product arrived at my door within 5 days of ordering it--good time for free shipping! I shopped around for months, and for the price, getting a Solid State Drive, 16 GB of memory, a dual core i5, and the Lenovo ThinkPad reputation for reliability is practically a steal! Battery is in good condition, lasts ~4 hours of normal use, which is respectable even for a brand new machine. Windows 10 setup went smoothly (I work in tech support myself, so I appreciate not having to troubleshoot at home too). The keyboard on these T430s is great too. Almost zero cosmetic damage is amazing on a refurbished machine! I had a quick question for tech support, and the wait time was not bad. I would definitely recommend this product/ Joy Systems products to my friends!
Some blurred & scratch on screen, storage SSD fall short of 256GB, only 178 GB-210GB to use.But the refurb computer runs ok, starting is fast. May have to wait 1 day after initial set-up so Microsoft could automatically connect & update Windows online & add some more useful features. Customer service is good.
extremely happy with the laptop, the 16 GB of RAM and the SSD are really noticeable providing fast load times and good response the screen and keyboard were clean and like new, the only indication that this is a used portable are the light wear marks on a few of the corners of the case. perfect size for traveling and preparing presentations I went to the Lenovo site to download and install the latest drivers and to update the BIOS. The system is running great with MS Office 2016 installed.
