Not being a high-end laptop does the job.
Not for Gamers, High-End Programmers, Multimedia Photo/Video Editors, CAD/CAM Users.
Compactness and small in size is a key feature that will amaze you.
Recommendation
- Suitable for students
- Programmers can install lightweight IDE like VS code
- Don’t think of installing DB packages like Oracle, MySQL, MS-SQL Server as their process keep running which will eat up memory RAM.
- Ideal to keep this laptop if you have a high-end desktop too. Install big stuff there and work on either of your devices per your mobility needs. Like installing DB on desktop and doing development on this laptop.
- Heavy multi-tasking is not recommended i.e. keeping many applications running in the taskbar must be avoided. Plan your work and divide and concur. An open application that is needed now and close once done.
- Personal experience I keep Mail, MS Teams, VS Code for a 3000+ Java code files project, Few words and excel documents, Browser with average 8-10 tabs open and this doesn’t lag.
Upgradable
RAM – no as this soldered to the motherboard
SSD – Yes as this has NVMe PCIe Gen 3 SSD with M-key. Form Factor: 2242. The slot can also support 2280 SSD upto 2TB (I will post a review once I upgrade)
Best features
Dual-band wifi5 ac protocol that gives immense speed and full utilization of my 100mbps connection.
Touch and feel like a premium laptop, smooth finish, fine edges.
Large keyboard keys don’t feel clumsy.
Enough large touchpad too.
Good battery backup between 4 – 6 hours depending upon brightness, process laptop is doing and WiFi usage while running on battery.

Compact. Fast. Efficient.
It’s worth the price. The screen is not as big as it looks in the review pictures. It’s compact. The keyboard is not cluttered and the OS is fast. Worth the cost especially if it’s your first laptop purchase.

Negative Review 1
Not Good
The product is good. MotherBoard problem occurred after the 10th day of use.
But, good service was provided by the Lenovo team at my location.
Negative Review 2
Very poor quality screen video for any video call.
Not worth it, while the price was decent. I took it for just calls/meetings etc. and some basic work. But video and audio quality is very bad
Negative Review 3
Very-very slow operation
Bought this laptop for online classes for my daughter’s online classes. Unfortunately, the laptop is too slow to do anything, even Google meet is very slow. I know this is a budget laptop but nothing except for very casual browsing is possible with this. Really I fed up with this laptop.
