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.

TecXL ThinkPad T14 Gen 2 (Intel) is a 14-inch clamshell laptop designed for business and mobile productivity. Powered by an 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i5-1145G7 processor and Intel Iris Xe Graphics, this configuration includes a Full HD 1920×1080 IPS display, 16 GB DDR4 memory and a 512 GB solid-state drive.

Built-in Wi‑Fi 6 improves wireless throughput and stability in congested networks, while Windows 11 Pro offers business-oriented security and management features. The 14" Full HD IPS panel delivers clear, wide-angle viewing for documents and presentations, and the compact, lightweight design enhances portability for hybrid work.

How to use

Charge the laptop with the supplied power adapter before first use. Use Windows 11 Pro setup to create or connect to a user account, configure network settings, and install company or personal applications. Connect to Wi‑Fi 6 networks via the network settings for improved performance, and use built-in webcam and microphone for video calls. Manage files on the internal 512 GB SSD; for additional storage or backups, connect external drives or cloud services. Keep device drivers and Windows updates current to maintain security and stability.

Recommendations

For stable wireless performance in busy environments, prefer Wi‑Fi 6 compatible routers and enable Bluetooth only when needed to conserve battery.
