Deal | Lenovo ThinkPad with AMD Ryzen 5 Pro drops under $350 thanks to huge refurbished discount

Spending lots of money on a new laptop might be the norm these days, especially for gamers and enthusiasts who are looking for high-end specs. That being said, regular office users can often make do with older refurbished but still reliable machines, which is a description that arguably fits business notebooks such as the Lenovo ThinkPad L15.

Fortunately, this 15-inch Lenovo laptop can currently be ordered at a substantial discount compared to its original list price of well above $1,000. To be more precise, the ThinkPad L15 Gen 3 with the AMD Ryzen 5 Pro 5675U is now on sale for $349 at the Amazon-owned retailer Woot. This configuration sports 16GB DDR4 RAM and a 256GB SSD, the alternative SKU with 512GB of SSD storage costs a reasonable $389. These are refurbished units, so some signs of wear should be expected.

The probably biggest caveat of this cheap office laptop is the underwhelming IPS display with 1920 x 1080 pixels and a measly 250 nits of brightness and incomplete sRGB colors. This might not be relevant for office applications like Microsoft Excel or Word, but it means that even occasional photo and video editing won't be much fun.

With that out of the way, the six-core AMD CPU in the ThinkPad L15 is quick enough for most everyday tasks. Windows 11 Pro as well as a fitting 65-watt power adapter are included in the discounted refurbished price, as is a 90-day warranty by the retailer. Thanks to WiFi 6E and USB-C 3.2, connectivity options are decent as well. Last but not least, the 15-inch ThinkPad has a comfortable keyboard with a numpad, which can be a huge plus when working on spreadsheets. All in all, this laptop is worth considering for users who are content with older but still very usable hardware, which also works great with Linux.
