An inside look at Lenovo's goal to create sustainable tech | Digital Trends
Lenovo has been focused on sustainability for years now, but its recent innovations are going continuing to push forward.

Of all the major PC manufacturers, I have no difficulty believing Lenovo could be a leader in this area because their design and build quality are superior. I have very well used ThinkPad T430s that continues to function well under Linux. It's ancient hardware but it's rugged and well built so it's less likely to end up as e-waste.
Anytime someone asks me with help picking out a laptop I say that Lenovo will be great and so far I haven't been wrong.
I have a very new Thinkpad (X1 extreme Gen 5) and it has been a lot of trouble. Started out with a bad battery which I had to get support to change out. A few months later one of the fans jammed, and instead of being replaceable like on older models, it was welded to the Mainboard, meaning that the entire board needed to be replaced, CPU GPU and all. A few months later, my performance took a huge hit, and I needed to get the Mainboard replaced yet again. The customer support was really great, but they definitely don't build them like they used to.
That's truly disappointing! 😕
I love my T430 - built like a tank.
I just had to switch because it became more and more underpowered. Now framework is taking lenovos place.
Lenovos build quality is absolute garbage for a couple generations now. My old T570 work laptop crashed when I picket it up at the bottom right corner. Died 2 months out of warranty. Not repairable (as the SSD controller or something died).
Unlikely I will buy lenovo ever again.
That's a shame but good to know. It was only a matter of time before capitalism realized that the quality was too good and people weren't buying them frequently enough.
