This time isn't as long as that from the 6-cell battery on the ThinkPad T470, which lasted 17 hours and 25 minutes, but it crushes the category average (8:40), and the times from the Latitude 5480 (11:37) and AsusPro B9440 (8:26).
With the optional 6-cell (72 Whr) battery on board, our review unit lasted an impressive 15 hours and 56 minutes on the Laptop Mag Battery Test (continuous surfing over Wi-Fi). The right and left buttons supply a good amount of feedback.

If pointing sticks aren't your thing, you can use the 3.9 x 2.2-inch buttonless touchpad, which provides just as much accuracy and responds to standard Windows gestures like three-finger swipe and pinch-to-zoom. The TrackPoint has a textured surface that adds a sturdy grip and works seamlessly as a touchpad alternative. Like other ThinkPads, Lenovo's L470 has a red TrackPoint pointing stick in the center of the keyboard. One gripe that I have with the keyboard is that the Control and Function buttons have switched places, and this interfered with my commonly used shortcuts. Since the ThinkPad's keyboard is so roomy and responsive, I surpassed my average 58 words per minute by 7 percent on the Key Hero typing test. The clarity in pitch and tone makes the ThinkPad's sound system ideal for school or office presentations. When I listened to Julia Michaels' "Issues," I could hear the chimes, bass and backing vocals perfectly, while Julia's voice carried over without distortion. With bottom-mounted speakers that are loud enough to fill a small-to-medium conference room, the ThinkPad L470 produces clear sound. The Latitude 5480 (1.58) was even more accurate. That number exceeds the scores from the ThinkPad T470 (2.11) and AsusPro B9440 (6.7), as well as the category average (3.25). The ThinkPad L470's screen fared better in color accuracy, earning a 1.94 (0 is perfect) on the Delta-E test.
CANDY CRUSH WIKI 847 SKIN
The ThinkPad L470's dull color quality was apparent when I watched Hailee Steinfeld's music video for "Most Girls." Hailee's tan skin and honey-blonde hair appeared on the gray side. The AsusPro B9440 (103 percent), ThinkPad T470 (73 percent) and Latitude 5480 (71 percent) all did better. Its screen reproduced just 58 percent of the sRGB color gamut, nearly half that of the category average (102 percent). In terms of color, the ThinkPad L470 also fell short. Overall, the ThinkPad L470 is OK if you use it indoors, but the screen is hard to see in direct sunlight. The AsusPro B9440 registered 291 nits, while the Lenovo ThinkPad T470 clocked in at 234 nits and the Latitude 5480 got a similar score of 202 nits. The screen is also dim, measuring 198 nits on our light meter, which falls far below the 259-nit category average.
Images were sharp, but inverted whenever the screen was propped at 45 or 135 degrees. The 1366 x 768, non-touch display on our review unit isn't the best. Unfortunately, there's no Thunderbolt 3 port, like you get on the T470. You can also customize the ThinkPad L470 with a smart card reader. The ThinkPad's right side features a SIM card slot (for those who buy it with a 4G modem), two USB 3.0 connectors, a mini DisplayPort, Ethernet, VGA-out and a Kensington Lock slot, while the front lip has an SD card reader.
On its left side, the laptop has a power adaptor, USB 3.0 connector and 3.5mm headphone jack.
