What customers like about Lenovo ThinkPad WiFi (2GB + 64GB)

  • Excellent detachable keyboard with tactile feel and backlighting
  • Sturdy, durable construction often meeting military-grade specifications
  • High-quality displays with sharp resolutions (e.g., 3K or FHD+)
  • Productivity-focused features including active stylus support and various ports (Thunderbolt 4, USB-C)
  • Versatile design with stable kickstands and modular accessory options
  • Strong performance on high-end models equipped with Intel Core i7 processors

What customers don't like about Lenovo ThinkPad WiFi (2GB + 64GB)

  • Below-average battery life compared to key competitors like the Microsoft Surface Pro
  • Higher price point, especially when adding essential accessories like keyboards or pens
  • Heavier and bulkier design in earlier generations compared to consumer-grade tablets

  • Lack of integrated magnetic storage for the stylus on several models
  • Glossy screens can suffer from significant glare in outdoor or bright environments

Verdict

The Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet 2 is a professional-grade 10.1-inch Windows slate featuring an Intel Atom Z2760 1.8GHz dual-core processor, 2GB of LPDDR2 RAM, and 64GB of eMMC storage. It is equipped with a vibrant 1366 x 768 IPS anti-glare display, an 8MP rear camera with LED flash, a 2MP front-facing webcam, and a full-size USB 2.0 port for peripheral connectivity. Main pros include its exceptionally lightweight design (approx. 565g), sturdy build quality, and a long-lasting battery life of up to 10 hours. However, users may find the limited 2GB of RAM restrictive for heavy multitasking, and the Atom processor can struggle with demanding applications or 3D gaming.
