Good day, one and all as you know I broke some sad news a few weeks ago that around the same time both of my modern refurbished laptops my Lenovo ThinkPad T 400 and my Dell Latitude 33:30 both died the ThinkPad T 400 had a display failure it might have been a failure of the display itself or it might have been a failure of the motherboard but the display developed a chronic and pretty violent flicker that made it extremely unpleasant to use and when that happened I planned on switching to the dell latitude 30 through 30 that computer had a CPU failure and the CPU is permanently soldered onto the motherboard so that computer just totally died this happened within oh like a week or two of each other and it was some of the most horrible luck that I've ever had my two newest Cheap refurbished laptops just both died at the same time.
Well I mentioned in that video that I bought a new refurbished laptop to replace them on eBay and today I'm going to show you that best place to buy refurbished laptop this is my new refurbished laptop it's a Lenovo ThinkPad t4 20s I bought it on eBay I paid $90 u.s. for it it's in great shape and it works perfectly I've had this factory refurbished laptop I've been using it for a couple of weeks now it is a joy to use I almost immediately fell in love with this refurbished laptop it works really well and I'm I'm very happy with it it's a very nice computer so I'm pretty excited to show you around it today so the ThinkPad t4 20s is obviously a fairly old model of ThinkPad it's two generations newer than the t 400 it's from 2011 so it's a pretty old computer however it is still the most powerful sell refurbished laptop Denver I've ever had it's 2 years newer than the T 400 it's 2 years older than the latitude however this computer is based on the same generation of hardware as the latitude is I haven't sacrificed the latitude for older generation hardware this has the same generation of hardware that the latitude does and it does have more power than the latitude so we'll open it up here take a look here's what it looks like inside very very nice.
So this is the t4 20s this is the slim model so it's slimmer and lighter than the normal t4 20 but refurbished laplaptops denver the internal hardware is mostly similar this does have some differences in the hardware from the normal t4 20 it does have some features that the t4 20 doesn't have and it does lack some capabilities that the normal t4 20 does have but for now let's just do an overview here so obviously this is a 14 inch refurbished laptop USA the display however is very different than the T 400 this thing has a 1600 by 900 display and that is awesome that's the highest resolution display I've ever had in any computer even higher resolution than my main 19 inch monitor that I used on my desktop computer and every just about every modern refurbished laptop for college student I've ever had has been either 1280 by 800 or 1366 by 768 so this thing at 600 by 900 is a really sweet upgrade it is LED backlit as opposed to the t 400 which is fluorescent backlit it's a very crisp very bright display and it is beautiful it's a really nice display super happy with it and very novel having that high resolution in a refurbished laptop under $100 it took a little bit of getting used to it first because everything smaller you know texts and everything smaller but I've really warmed up I warmed up to it quickly and I'm really fond of the extra screen real estate it's very nice.
