Frequently asked questions

What does the warranty cover?

Our warranty covers all hardware faults, but please note it doesn’t cover accidental damage or software issues. However, we’re here to help with technical support for those matters!

What is a refurbished device?

A refurbished device is a pre-owned item that has been restored to meet high-quality standards. At Reboot IT, we adhere to strict quality guidelines, ensuring that our refurbished products are not the same as used or secondhand items. We meticulously clean, test, and assess each device, replacing worn parts with high-quality components.

Unlike used items, which lack guarantees and rely solely on the seller's word regarding condition, refurbished devices come with assurance of quality and reliability.

What payment options are available?

We offer a variety of payment options to make your shopping experience as convenient as possible! You can pay using all major credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Shop Pay, Afterpay, Zip Pay, and PayPal. If you prefer, we also accept bank deposits and even cash for in-store purchases!

Lenovo ThinkPad X390 — Certified Refurbished Business Ultrabook

Compact 13.3-inch business ultrabook with Intel Core i5-8265U 8th Gen quad-core processor, 16GB DDR4 RAM, 256GB NVMe SSD, and Full HD touchscreen display — backed by a 12-month warranty from Reboot IT.

Why the ThinkPad X390 Is an Exceptional Compact Business Laptop

  • Intel Core i5-8265U 8th Gen Quad-Core: Whiskey Lake architecture with 3.9GHz turbo boost and 4 cores / 8 threads — handles demanding business workloads, multitasking, and video conferencing with responsive, efficient performance.
  • 16GB DDR4 RAM — Ideal for Heavy Multitasking: Double the 8GB found in typical refurbished laptops, providing ample headroom for CRM platforms, accounting software, remote desktop sessions, and multiple browser tabs running simultaneously without slowdown.
  • 13.3-Inch Full HD Touchscreen: 1920×1080 IPS display with 10-point multi-touch — ideal for interactive presentations, on-screen annotations, digital signatures, and touch-based navigation that goes beyond a standard trackpad or mouse.
  • 256GB NVMe SSD — Fast and Responsive: PCIe NVMe storage delivers significantly faster read/write speeds than SATA SSDs — Windows loads in seconds, applications open instantly, and large file transfers complete quickly.
  • MIL-STD-810G Durability: Military-grade tested chassis built to handle shocks, temperature extremes, dust, and vibration — ThinkPad reliability proven in demanding business environments worldwide.
  • Windows 11 Pro with Full Activation: Genuine Windows 11 Professional pre-installed with BitLocker encryption, domain join, Remote Desktop, and Windows Hello biometric login support.

How the ThinkPad X390 Performs in Real Business Use

The ThinkPad X390 is built for professionals who need a compact, light laptop without sacrificing performance. The i5-8265U quad-core handles Microsoft 365, Outlook with heavy mailboxes, Chrome or Edge with 15+ tabs, Teams and Zoom calls, and PDF workflows simultaneously. With 16GB DDR4 RAM — significantly more than the 8GB standard in most refurbished 13-inch laptops — you have real multitasking headroom for MYOB, Xero, CRM applications, and remote desktop sessions without performance compromise.

The 13.3-inch Full HD touchscreen adds practical versatility — use it for on-screen annotations during client presentations, sign digital documents without printing, or navigate intuitively in tablet-style mode. The anti-glare IPS panel delivers sharp, clear visuals in both indoor office settings and outdoor environments. Intel UHD Graphics 620 supports an external monitor via HDMI or USB-C for dual-screen productivity when at the desk.

The legendary ThinkPad backlit keyboard with TrackPoint provides accurate, comfortable typing for long data-entry and writing sessions, while the fingerprint reader enables fast Windows Hello login. At approximately 1.28kg the X390 is one of the lightest 13-inch business laptops available, making it the ideal travel companion for professionals moving between offices, client sites, and home.
