Very happy with my refurbished Lenovo ThinkPad T480S. I haven't had a computer in years, and is taking some getting used to. But overall it works great, is in pretty good condition, good price, and shipping was fast. I've bought a few android phones and now a laptop from backmarket and have had a great experience every time. I will continue to buy from backmarket, every time the wife or kids break a phone.

I recently bought a Refurbished Lenovo ThinkPad from BackMarket. It could not have been easier and I could not be happier. I wanted a "new" computer but didn't want to spend a lot of money. I love my new computer -- it looks brand new. there isn't a scratch on it. I got it within just a few days, set it up and have been using it ever sense. I don't know that I will ever buy a brand new computer again! Donna

I needed a laptop but was on a tight budget, so I took a chance on this refurbished Lenovo, and I am glad that I did. All in, with a 2-year warranty, I paid less than $300.00 for what is essentially a brand-new laptop. Cosmetically, there is no indication that this machine has been used, and it works flawlessly. Also, it shipped shockingly quick. I ordered just prior to Christmas, with no expectation that it would arrive prior to the holiday, and it arrived within 2-days. Definitely a great first experience with BackMarket!

I got this computer for my dad as a replacement for his old laptop. It has been good for his type of daily average use. The laptop itself had only 1 small blemish on the keyboard corner. It's not easy to see. Otherwise the refurbished model is looking really good. Thank you!

Quick summary: • Delivered faster than estimated • Packaged securely • Laptop overall was as expected (Purchased as: 'Excellent' from, 'BuyRefurbished') Notable additions: For a refurbished item, this was great. I've never thought positively of fixed things, nor ever bought an item that was expensive that is fixed. Back Market has me thinking now. Only has a small area at the bottom that is scratched and the cover around the logo on the back screen of it is lifting a bit. All physical—internally, seems fine. Ending: I'd highly recommend not spending so much on a brand new item, Back Market is very suitable. Everything is new when it's new to you.

Is the Used Lenovo ThinkPad a Good Laptop?

You’ll be happy with a used Lenovo ThinkPad if you get one with good specs that isn’t more than 5 years old :D Although all refurbished ThinkPads are great quality computers, I wouldn’t suggest spending less than $400 on one (unless you’re getting a Lenovo Chromebook) because a computer starts to get noticeably slower after 5 years.

Which Refurbished Lenovo ThinkPad is Best?

My Personal favorite is the Lenovo X1 Carbon thanks to its premium specs and thin form factor. But to be honest, I think my favorite ThinkPad would be one that gives me the best specs (like an i7 processor and a lot of RAM) at the best price. There are a lot of model names that you’ll see when looking through our selection of budget Lenovo ThinkPads, but don’t let the different model names confuse you. Just know that you’ll be getting a great quality computer for a great price with just about any affordable Lenovo laptop that you choose to buy.

What is the Best Type of Cheap Lenovo ThinkPad?

In terms of value, there are so many different types of affordable Lenovo ThinkPads. There’s the T-series, S-series, L-series, X-series, but really just try to find a good deal on any of them that gives you great specs and has the most recent model year. So whether it’s a T460, T560, or L470, look for an affordable ThinkPad deal that gives you an i5 processor (or i7, this is even better), at least 8GB of RAM, and isn’t more than 5 years old. And remember, the more recent the model year, the faster the processor, so don’t be afraid to spend a few extra bucks if you see a relatively new refurbished ThinkPad for a surprisingly low price. You can really find some great deals on ThinkPads if you spend some time digging through our website :D

Cheap Lenovo ThinkPads for Sale

Since there are so many different types of Lenovo ThinkPads, you can browse for one that gives you the best specs for the best price. Even though cheap Lenovo ThinkPads don’t have the same “trendy factor” as MacBooks, it means they can give you better value for a better price. Let’s face it, MacBooks can be overpriced when compared to affordable Lenovo ThinkPads like a used X1 Carbon, Yoga, or T-series laptop.

Lenovo ThinkPads Best Deals

Although the refurbished ThinkPads that we sell are not the newest computers, that doesn’t mean they aren’t still powerful, capable, and quick. If you get a deal on a ThinkPad from a couple years ago with an i5 or i7 processor and at least 8GB of RAM, you should rest assured that you're getting a great high-performance laptop.
