Before you believe a bad review about us

We would like to respond openly to every negative review about us. Many are posted anonymously, so we cannot reach those customers directly. This open letter is our reply, and we would be grateful if you took a moment to read it.

But here is what a one-star review will never tell you:

  • We import from 70+ official distributors. That is why you pay far less than local retail — and why delivery takes longer. We publish the date before you pay, never after.
  • You can pay only when your goods land in Johannesburg. Pay on Arrival, no full payment up front. Ask yourself what scammer offers that.
  • Nobody has ever lost money with us. You get the product, or you get a refund. There is no third option, and there never has been.
  • We are part of the ITwork group — ten years trading in Europe, nine stores, thousands of positive reviews.
  • Johannesburg and Cape Town stores open this year — real shelves, real stock, walk in and buy the same day.

We are not satisfied with our review scores, and we are not going to fix them by hiding anything. We are fixing them by being faster, clearer and easier to reach than any reason to complain.

Read the full letter — photos and video of real shipments, and a straight answer to every accusation.

Problem with an order right now? Write to [email protected], [email protected] or [email protected] — answered the same business day. The letter also lists our group and store owners' contacts.

Lenovo ThinkBook 14 G5 IAU is a hybrid 2-in-1 convertible laptop with a 14" (35.6 cm) WUXGA touchscreen (1920 × 1200, 16:10). It is powered by an Intel Core Ultra 5 225U processor with 12 cores, 16 GB DDR5-5600 RAM (1 × 16 GB), and a 512 GB SSD. The device features integrated Intel graphics, Wi‑Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, a 60 Wh battery and ships with Windows 11 Pro. Its convertible hinge allows use in laptop, tablet and tent modes, making it suitable for office work, presentations and travel.

How to use

Open the device and select the preferred mode (laptop, tablet or tent) using the convertible hinge. Use the touchscreen for direct input or the keyboard and touchpad for traditional laptop operation. Connect to a wireless network through the Windows 11 Pro settings to enable internet access and use Bluetooth for pairing peripherals. Manage storage and applications via the operating system; regular system updates are recommended to keep drivers and security features current.

Recommendations

For best battery life, use balanced power settings and enable Wi‑Fi only when needed. Use a protective sleeve during transport to prevent scratches on the glossy touchscreen. For heavier graphics workloads, consider an external GPU or a system with discrete graphics.
