Lenovo T430 Business Laptop computer Intel i5-3320m up tp 3.3GHz, 8GB DDR3, 128GB SSD, 14" HD LED-backlit display, DVD, HD Webcam, 802.11b/g/n, HDMI, USB 3.0, Windows 10 Pro (Renewed)

This laptop is still a great purchase in 2019 for a few reasons. 1. It is affordable. Seriously, if you want something cheaper than this you're probably going to have to settle for something that either has a very cheap and easy to scratch touch pad or just a straight up chrome book. Nothing against chrome books, but they aren't real computers. 2. The keyboard is responsive and the keys are similar enough to what you'd expect from the old IBM keyboards. 3. These computers are classics. Frankly you just can't get that classic aesthetic with other more modern machines. 4. Are you a Linux user? If not then what are you even doing with yourself mate? But for real, my machine came with windows 8 installed and ready for setup, which of course I didn't finish with because I don't know how to use windows but if I did then I would've been just fine. 5. My girlfriend says I have to apologize to all windows users, so I'm sorry for being mean about your OS. 6. The red dot works as a pretty great alternative for a the touch bad but my girlfriend says it'll take off your finger prints if you use it too much. So far I still have my finger prints. 7. If you buy this and the wifi doesn't work DO NOT PANIC! There is a switch on the right side which toggles airplane mode. 8. This laptop came with a CD drive. I thought those were all destroyed in the war. 9. The CD drive keeps opening on me. So the laptop might be haunted. 10. The battery on this lasts really long. Possibly because the laptop has supernatural properties, see point 9. 11. There is an emergency mute button... do with that what you will. 12. The laptop also comes with an anti-pop-singer button... I have yet to find a use for this button. 12. (a) My girlfriend says that this button is actually for turning off the microphone. Alright that's all for now. Will post a 1 year update. See ya then.

As received, the machine was clean, even dust free. It worked and looked essentially new. Recommended!

I purchased this for my mother after she was having problems with an HP she had bought only LAST YEAR. Thankfully, I think this Lenovo will last her a bit longer. The processor isn't a contender with the 7th or even 6th generation chips, but it definitely runs Windows 10 Pro fabulously and has no issues multitasking. I'm a bit upset that (for whatever reason hardware/software/magic) I couldn't get the wireless networking device to function. It simply would not turn on. I settled getting a USB adapter for only $10 so I'm not bothered by it too much; it is something to be aware of though. Overall, I'm actually considering buying another for myself as a on-the-go secondary. If you need something cheap, lightweight and portable, I can't see a better bargin than this laptop.

First, these look to be high quality refurbs and they are. But, a couple issues. One: all the people on here complaining about poor battery life - its not the battery, its the power supply. Seller ships with 65W power supply. Lenovo requires 90W. Contact Seller and request correct 90W power supply, or buy one on Amazon for like $15. Two: I ordered T430, and seller shipped T430s. There are differences between the models - not necessarily good or bad differences, just differences. I contacted seller to request correct power supply; havent received after nearly a week. Had to purchase them separately. Seller said they would ship them and an RMA for the 65w power supplies (havent received either). I order these for price-sensitive customers. They are otherwise, exactly as descrived and function very well. The Lenovo Thinkpads are work horses in business., New, they can easily be $1200-1800 - and in previous lives, I have purchased them at those prices direct from Lenovo and was happy with them. For the price here, these are an excellent value, even if I have to purchase the correct power supply as I did in this case. **Update 2/24/18 - Seller shipped correct 90W Lenovo power supplies. No RMA for the 65W, but they made the deal mostly right. The differences between the T430 and T430S arent significant enough for me to return the laptops, though for some, may be a deal breaker. Check before you play with it. **Update 5/24/19 - ordered additional - the T430 they sent me today did not include a TPM chip on the BIOS. It is 4 yrs old (which is fine), but it didnt have a TPM chip. If you are intending to encrypt this - make sure you are getting one with a TPM chip. I just wasted 4 hours imaging one.
