Lenovo ThinkCentre A70z Pro Reviews

expertreviews‘s review Edit

The Lenovo ThinkCentre A70z is a decent all-in-one desktop PC for office tasks, at nearly £600, it's a little expensive for its specification although its one year warranty does provide onsite service. However, its display makes it a poor choice for multimedia use.

Engadget‘s review Edit

We can't help but conclude that it just doesn't do enough to merit that mark of excellence. Its construction, attention to detail, and rigorous quality checks are certainly right up there - that much is readily apparent - but the omission of a higher resolution display panel, the requirement for tools when accessing memory and hard drive upgrades, and the unsuitable input peripherals place it just a notch below what we might expect from the former IBM brand. All the same, if you ignore who made it and what's it called and just focus on what the A70z is, you'll find one of the better all-in-ones around.

PC Magazine‘s review Edit

The Lenovo ThinkCentre A70z can work as the primary PC in your business if you're the sole proprietor, or as the PC for your staff and receptionist. It's an all-in-one business PC that may make "more sense" than other consumer-grade alternatives, particularly if you need business features like a serial port.

SlashGear‘s review Edit

With Lenovo build quality, a mercifully bloatware-free standard install and the sort of speedy start-up that won’t force you into the kitchen to make a drink while you wait for your machine to be work-ready, the A70z fills its target niche pretty well. It’s not the most attractive of all-in-ones, and you should definitely look elsewhere for media functionality or touchscreen novelty, but if you want a reliable, affordable and decently compact PC then the ThinkCentre A70z warrants consideration.

PC Advisor‘s review Edit

The Lenovo ThinkCentre A70z is a little underdone considering it doesn't have an SD card slot or built-in wireless networking, but it's nevertheless a zippy machine on which you can comfortably run office applications and more. It will cope with image editing, file compression and even video tasks, and its screen resolution of 1440x900 is fine for multitasking. If you want a neat all-in-one solution that won't cost you a lot of money, then the A70z it's well worth considering.

SlashGear‘s review Edit

A70z is perfectly sufficient for Office applications, local and streaming media playback (even 1080p YouTube video and bandwidth-heavy Hulu) and even a little Photoshop meddling, this isn’t a gaming PC and nor is it a media center. Admittedly, Lenovo don’t bill it as such, but with the ThinkCentre’s standard VESA mount on the back, we did have visions of a wall-mounted machine for a kid’s room;
