Does not meet my expectations, it was not worth buying.

This review is for LENOVO IdeaPad 330-15IKBR 81DE015GRU: Intel Core i5 8250u, 8GB RAM, 1000GB/1TB HDD, No ODD, Intel UHD Graphics 620. , please add it to your database. Got pros: + Intel Core i5 8250 processor (hello Meltdown and 100500 Specter variants). + 8GB DDR4 2133MHz RAM (2 modules of 4GB each - one is probably sewn into the mother - did not disassemble). + Weight: 2.2kg, very light power supply. + Screen rotates up to 180 degrees. + Price for 2022 ~ 33,000 for 2022-07. In the states, you can get a much better thing for the same money. + 1 USB-C connector, alas, only USB 3.1 Gen 1 (5Gbps). + 100% Linux compatible - everything works out of the box, including Wi-Fi. Has cons: - Terrible cooling system: the fan always runs, even if there is no load (4W heat dissipation according to monitoring readings). With even a small load, for example, Windows ates - the fan starts yelling like a jet plane. Putting the laptop on a bed or other soft surface is strictly prohibited. - FullHD screen is cool. Nearly. Only the viewing angles are such that sitting strictly perpendicular to the screen at arm's length, with your eyes in the middle, you can see the light from above and below! With a large deviation, the picture disappears completely. This is hell. I have never seen such horror. - Hard drive - in the scrap. 5400RPM and slow as hell. It is better to get and put the SSD. - Webcam - 0.3MP, i. E. for check. - Windows 10 works strangely: in normal power saving mode, performance suffers a lot - probably a BIOS error. WinRAR single thread: Power saving mode: 1150KB/sec Maximum throughput: 1450KB/sec (26% faster!) Windows installed from scratch, license - nothing but drivers and WinRAR. - No LED to indicate HDD/SSD operation. This is extremely sad, but such is the trend of our time.
