This laptop is really tough. Withstands extreme temperatures of -20 ° C or 6 hours of sandstorms, to very high temperatures or explosive atmospheres. It is evident that it resists much more than the passage of time. You will have no problem if you are clueless, or if you need an all-terrain team to travel around the world.
But the fact that it is so resistant does not mean that its design is not elegant or showy. It has a black casing very much in the line of other Thinkpads from the company. Built in high quality polycarbonate,with smooth and ergonomic lines. It has exact measurements of 336.6 x 232.5 x 19.95 mm and a weight of 1.63 kilos, making it quite light and easy to transport.
