I was looking for a reliable power bank, and I found a great deal on a Baseus 20,000mAh power bank here. Will definitely shop again!

I was skeptical about buying a smartwatch online, but I’m so glad I did! The Apple Watch Series 9 I bought is 100% original, works perfectly, and came in a sealed box. Best online electronics store in Kenya!

Description

Lenovo X280 | Core i5 & i7 Options | 8GB + 256GB SSD | 12.5" Ultrabook

If you want ultralight portability without giving up business-class features, the Lenovo X280 is a premium compact option. Designed for professionals who travel, consult or study across Kenya, the X280 pairs powerful 8th-gen Intel silicon (i7-8250U or equivalent i5 options), 8GB DDR4 memory and a 256GB SSD in a 12.5" chassis that slips into any briefcase or backpack.

What makes the X280 a great buy

The ThinkPad X280 blends a durable, mixed-alloy construction with enterprise features: Thunderbolt-capable USB-C, Ethernet support for secure wired connections, a secure fingerprint reader and a lightweight 1.13 kg frame that’s ideal for daily commutes between Nairobi offices or inter-city travels to Kisumu and Mombasa. Real-world users appreciate the balance of power and mobility — you get quick boot and app launches thanks to the 256GB SSD while the Intel UHD 620 handles video conferencing and content playback with ease.

Detailed product description

The X280's quad-core Intel Core i7-8250U (base 1.6 GHz, boost to ~3.4 GHz) delivers reliable multi-threaded performance for spreadsheets, multiple browser tabs, remote desktop sessions and light data analysis. The 8GB DDR4 RAM keeps multitasking fluid, and the 256GB SSD provides fast storage with low latency — both important when you're opening large documents or compiling reports during client visits. The 12.5" HD (1366×768) panel prioritizes battery life and legibility; its compact size keeps the chassis small while giving you a usable canvas for productivity.
