Laptops for 3D Design (CAD)

Powerful enough to run even the most demanding programs, the Lenovo Thinkpad P50 remains incredibly portable. That combination makes it a great option for those looking to upgrade from a more budget machine. A classy design that incorporates a glass-reinforced plastic lid and a base made of aluminum and magnesium, this is a durable machine that will take a lot of knocks. With one of the best keyboards available on a Lenovo, the Thinkpad P50 is comfortable and responsive when it comes to even the fastest typing speed. The touchpad too is very responsive and accurate, while the display is just stunning. It is both rich and sharp, and great for this price range. There are a lot of ports available, but you should be aware that they are on the back of the laptop rather than the sides. This can be an issue for some, although it's not a major concern for most people looking for a brilliant laptop in this price range.

This might be thicker and heavier than other laptops, but the hardware included in this powerhouse of a machine is well worth that reduction in portability. The specs on the Lenovo ThinkPad P50 are glorious, and it's not going to struggle to run many of the tasks that the average user is looking for. As well as the high-end specs, it also comes with a fantastic color calibration camera and an inbuilt fingerprint sensor too. Despite the fact that this looks like a very solid machine, it's actually very sensitive, especially on the interior. The tactile feel of the keyboard is excellent, and when combined with the beauty of the 15-inch display makes this a very promising laptop. If you're into gaming, this is a good entry level machine that's well worth considering, but if that's not a priority then this still remains one of the best options currently available.
