The Lenovo ThinkCentre M93z delivers a bevy of ports, IT-friendly utilities, solid performance and an excellent wireless keyboard, all backed up by a three-year warranty.
Design
Although it lacks the gorgeous edge-to-edge bezel of its pricier cousin, the ThinkCentre M93z nevertheless sports an elegant build with beveled corners; a glossy, 23-inch display; and a 2.5-inch-thick profile. On the front of the all-in-one, a chrome Lenovo logo below the display accentuates the M93z's all-black look. A speaker grille at the bottom spans the width of the computer. At the top, a 2-megapixel webcam is centered above the display, and features a security panel that you can physically slide in front of the camera.
Display
The M93z's 23-inch, 1920 x 1080-pixel touch display offers generous viewing angles but suffers from somewhat muted colors. When we watched a high-definition trailer for "The Amazing Spider-Man 2", the eponymous hero's red-and-blue costume looked flat, and the explosive special effects failed to pop off the screen.
Performance
Our review configuration of the ThinkCentre M93z shipped with a 3.1-GHz Intel Core i5-4670S processor and 4GB of RAM, which is more than enough power to handle everyday computing with ease. Anecdotally, we didn't experience any slowdowns when we simultaneously wrote this review in Microsoft Word, browsed the Web with a dozen tabs open in Chrome and streamed music on Amazon.com.
