Review on 💻 Lenovo Thinkpad T430 Business Laptop Intel i5-3320m 3.3GHz, 8GB DDR3, 128GB SSD, 14" HD LED Backlit Display, DVD, WiFi, USB 3.0, Windows 10 Pro (Renewed) by Robert Espinoza

First of all it looks and is a quality repair. But a couple of questions. First, everyone here complains about poor battery life - it's not the battery, it's the AC adapter. The seller sends a 65W power supply. Lenovo requires 90W. Contact the seller and request the correct 90W power adapter or buy one from Revain for around $15. Second: I ordered T430 and the seller sent T430. There are differences between the models - not necessarily good or bad differences, just differences. I contacted the seller to request the correct power supply. not received after almost a week. I had to buy them separately. Seller said he would send them and an RMA for 65w PSUs (didn't receive either). I order these for budget conscious customers. Otherwise they are exactly as described and work very well. Lenovo Thinkpads are the workhorses of the business. They can easily cost $1200-$1800 new - and in past lives I've bought them direct from Lenovo at those prices and been happy with them. For the price here, it's excellent value for money, even if like in this case I have to buy the right power supply. No RMA for 65W, but they got the deal right for the most part. The differences between the T430 and T430S aren't big enough to make laptops return, although that could be a deal breaker for some. Check before you play with it. **Update 05/24/19 - ordered extra - the T430 that was sent to me today did not have the TPM chip in the BIOS. It's 4 years old (which is normal) but didn't have a TPM chip. If you want to encrypt this, make sure you get a chip with a TPM. I just spent 4 hours on a picture of one.
