Workstations like Lenovo’s ThinkPad W540 ($2,573, £1,606, AU$2,946) and Dell’s Precision M6800 ($3,490, £2,075, AU$3,750) are among the best on the market. For business users that would love a workstation, but can’t afford to go above $1K, Lenovo’s ThinkPad T line has traditionally been a safe bet.
This year, Lenovo is unveiling the ThinkPad T550 laptop ($999, £610, AU$1,065), a 15-inch ultrabook that weighs 5 pounds, cracks 3K resolution at 2880×1620, and can include touchscreen functionality for an upgrade. The T550 features an Intel i5 processor and runs standard at up to 95.5 watts per hour.
Specs
The T550 comes equipped with up to 512 GB SSD and up to 16GB of memory. It features three USB 3.0 ports, a mini DisplayPort, a 4-in-1 reader, a 720 pixel camera and a Bluetooth 4.0/Wi-fi combo card, among other features.
The device can be purchased with a standard or backlit keyboard. Users will love the dual battery that can get you up to 116 watts per hour when you hot-swap batteries.
Although the unit starts at 5 pounds, it’s only 0.88 inches thick, so it won’t take up too much space in your backpack.
