Lenovo ThinkPad Edge E420s Pro Reviews

reghardware‘s review Edit Like Unlike

The ThinkPad range has been typically targeted at business users, however, I can certainly see more general users adopting the Edge series, especially as the price of the business class fare edges further below the £1000 mark. This Core i5 version is no number crunching beast and the battery life could be better, but this model would suit those who might want to dabble in the more graphically demanding tasks now and again. If you’re looking to buy a mid-spec laptop for the longhaul and yet seek the build quality usually reserved for the top end, then the Lenovo E420s is easy to recommend.

They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and if it takes an aggressive styling with lots of LED lights to catch your eye, the E420s isn't for you. The E420s is instead aimed at business users who plan on toting their laptop into the board room and into meetings with co-workers and potential clients. For those users, the well designed E420s gives the same first impression that a fancy suit would give, which is one of style and sophistication. We really like the rubberized lid with chrome trim, and the size and weight is more than manageable.

The Lenovo ThinkPad Edge E420s business laptop is slim, sleek, and loaded with good hardware, but its overall performance is good rather than great.

The ThinkPad E420s couldn’t be much different from the excellent Lenovo IdeaPad G570. To be fair to the ThinkPad it is a very work-focused model, but the poor battery life, lack of storage space, mediocre screen and relatively high price all count against it. It is quick, though, and the robust construction means it can withstand a knock or drop without too much bother.

The ThinkPad E420s represents a good value at its $799 price point. Just be aware it has limited screen options and a non-removable battery.

The Lenovo ThinkPad Edge E420s-NWD4NGE offers a few plus points, which let it stand out from the mass, for a price of about 1000 euros. But it also has a few flaws that actually shouldn't exist.
