Best price for this product, will buy more!

A high-quality laptop at a reasonable price. He is perfect in every conceivable way. There are products available on the market that can offer more (such as being lighter, having a charge that lasts longer, having a Type C charger, etc.), but either for a much higher price or they will also have their own features, so everything is comparable in this case. The price of this laptop and the well-known Chinese model that begins with the letter "Hu" were comparable, so I decided to go with the former. Choice in favor of Lenovo as a result of the modern filling (Ryzen 3 4300U is somewhat more productive than Ryzen 5 3500U both in tests of the processor itself and tests of the integrated graphics).

Pros
  • I opted to get a laptop for my duties in the office. The primary considerations were: 1) A modern processor (in my version, a Ryzen 3 4300U); 2) at least 8 gigabytes of random access memory (RAM); 3) a solid-state drive (in my version, an M2 with 256 gigabytes; the operating system boots up in approximately 5 seconds); There is a second slot for an M2 SSD as well as a card reader that is built right in. 4) the screen's brightness is sufficient; this model does not have a dim display. Previously, there existed a Lenovo Z500, and everything was far worse on that system; 5) a light weight (which in this case is roughly 1.4 kg) In this context, it is possible to call it little, but with the qualification that there are versions that are lighter; 6) and it is designed in such a way that it does not warm up and does not buzz like a steam locomotive. Prior to that, there was a Lenovo Z500, and the cooling worked perfectly under that configuration. This laptop does not generate any heat at all when it is being used, provided that I switch it on in the morning, switch it off in the evening, and keep the amount of time I spend using it to a bare minimum (this is something that is also mentioned in the reviews of this product that can be found on the internet). In addition to this, the controls for the speakers are located on the front panel, to the right and left of the keyboard. When worn when kneeling, it does not cause discomfort. The sound is average, neither particularly good nor particularly terrible. You are able to listen to something in the background without being irritated by the sound (it doesn't appear to be murmuring, ringing, or anything else of the sort); - There is a backlight for the keyboard; - The front camera can be covered with a built-in shutter or curtain (closing and sealing it is not essential); - There are no physical buttons on the device. The battery life of the laptop is approximately five hours (with the screen always on, Wi-Fi, multiple browser tabs open, and Microsoft Office open). It takes between two and two and a half hours to charge while the laptop is in use (I did not measure exactly); - The keyboard is comfortable and does not make a lot of noise. The distance to the key is not far. The trackpad is also quite pleasant to use.
Cons
  • I'm not sure whether this should be regarded a drawback or, on the other hand, a feature of a laptop that costs so much money (about 45,000 dollars at the time of publication): 1) RAM is soldered. There is no way to make it any bigger; 2) Screen measurements were taken in terms of color reproduction (color gamut) based on the tests that were carried out on one Internet platform. The investigation led to the conclusion that the model is not optimal for use in conjunction with graphic editors. 3) Cover has been marked. 4) Charging cable that was manufactured in the previous century. These days, most recent laptops are equipped with a charging port that uses the Type C standard and a cable that may be removed. However, the nearby Type C port can also be used for charging purposes. 5) The top can only be opened by using two hands, failing the so-called "test on Macbook"
