Lenovo’s line of ThinkPad laptops remains popular for multiple reasons. When you see a laptop with the ThinkPad emblem, you know you’re getting a comfortable keyboard, good performance, the signature Nub, a nice port selection, and a business-oriented design. A lot of people (including myself) enjoy that combination of features. Those are the fundamentals of Lenovo’s budget-conscious L line which promise to bring down all the features you come to expect from a ThinkPad to a more affordable price point.

Those that follow me know that I love ThinkPads, and it's always a pleasure when one comes across my desk. They're always really well-built machines, with MIL-STD-810G durability, phenomenal keyboards, and some great design choices, like the built-in pen.
