Take performance on the go with the graphite gray 15.6″ IdeaPad 5 Laptop from Lenovo. Designed for work or play, the IdeaPad 5 sports a 1 GHz Intel Core i5-1035G1 quad-core CPU and 8GB of DDR4 RAM for punchy processing. An ample 512GB SSD can accommodate user files, including a video or photo library. Need more storage? This laptop also features an empty 2.5″ SATA III bay that can accommodate an HDD or SSD for even more storage space. Wired peripherals can be connected to two USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A ports or a USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C port supporting power delivery. Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity is also present, allowing users to connect wireless peripherals as well. And, with Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, in addition to 2×2 dual-band support, users can take advantage of faster internet speeds and stronger connections compared to older Wi-Fi 5.
Employing a 15.6″ 1920 x 1080 TN display with a 135° hinge, the IdeaPad 5 features integrated Intel UHD Graphics and can extend or mirror content to additional displays via the USB Type-C or HDMI 1.4b ports.

And, with a 1MP HD webcam, dual-array microphone, and integrated speaker system, users can easily videoconference at home or out and about. When the webcam is not in use, you can even block the lens with a privacy shutter, ensuring privacy. Further safety measures include power-on, HDD, and supervisor passwords, as well as a dedicated TPM chip and touch-style fingerprint reader. In addition to a touchpad, the user interface includes a backlit keyboard with a number pad. This laptop features an integrated battery that can last for up 12 hours on a single charge.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Had to return this laptop as I couldn’t even get past the set up. Obviously received a lemon! Return so far seems to be going smoothly.

This is my second Lenovo laptop, a replacement for my 2013 ThinkPad. Lenovo is the brand I trust for reliability, durability, and service. My new IdeaPad continues to merit that trust.

Now owning a Lenovo, I previously bought one for a family member, the 88 meets all specs that was recommended to me to get by my IT advisor. I’m very pleased with the unit.

It works fast compared to my old laptop. I like that it is touchscreen and that it turns on automatically when I open the lid. It’s CPU stays cool because of all the vents. Smaller than HP 15.6 laptop screens.

I’m a huge fan of my new IdeaPad Lenovo laptop! It has been such an upgrade from my previous computer; the battery life is great and the audio and video quality is far superior as well. I hope to win the sweepstakes so I can gift my sister the Lenovo Tab M10 when she goes off to college in the fall!

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) This is my second Lenovo laptop purchase. I bought it as a backup for my Flex which I have used super heavily for work and personal. I cannot buy a laptop from any other manufacturer. Now a fan of Lenovo

This laptop has been great for me so far! I’ve only had it a couple weeks but it is fast and i really appreciate the backlit keyboard. My only negative is that the fan gets pretty loud. It doesn’t impact the performance but it can be a little annoying.

Lenovo laptops are pure workhorses!!! Never had a problem with my first one and there was no choice when I upgraded. Keep making fantastic products and I’ll be sure to keep buying when my upgrades are needed.

Compared to my 12 year old HP that was running Windows 7, this is slick, quick & efficient. The software made transitioning super easy. I was nervous about switching bc of the risk of losing important data. No worries now!

My recently purchased Lenovo 15.6″ laptop was a great value for what is under the hood. I went to a physical store to check out the laptops on my short list, and the Lenovo was a hands down winner. Setup was a breeze and I was working in minutes. The key is the smooth action of the touchpad, many others are a bit jumpy and don’t track as true. Go for the SSD, from power button to log in in under 11 seconds is worth the upgrade!

Overall I really like this computer. The touch screen is nice to have and also the 10 Key. My only complaint is that there are only two USB ports.
