Review on Lenovo IdeaPad 330 15.6" HD Laptop - Intel Dual-Core i3-8130U, 8GB DDR4, 1TB HDD, Windows 10, HDMI - Ideal for Business Use by Ryan Limkk ᠌

We are talking about a model with i5-8250, 8 GB / SSD 256 GB, Nvidia MX150 / MS-DOS (without Windows). In short, for its price (44000) - an excellent solution. There is nothing unusual and cool in it - just a good multimedia laptop that will allow you to comfortably surf, work with the office, program and, if you want, play some games. And now in more detail. I have a brown laptop. The surface of the soft-touch cover (collects fingerprints, but not as much as black). The working area is just matte plastic. I liked the keyboard - it is practical gray, fixed very well, pressed with a noticeable effort (you won't be able to type very quickly). The CapsLock, NumLock and Power keys have indicators. The tactile sensations from working with a laptop are very pleasant. The touchpad is pleasant to the touch and easy to use. But it is fixed in such a way that there is a slight play in the lower part of the panel, which is not pleasant, but not critical either. The screen is an ordinary TN matrix with small viewing angles. The surface is matte - no glare (would be glossy - I would not buy a laptop). The display hinge is tight - you can't open it with one hand. The opening angle is a full 180 degrees. During prolonged loads (for example, more than an hour of playing), the entire left half of the laptop noticeably heats up - the hand sweats. In office mode - everything is cool and good. The cooling system is idle only until the opening of the first tab in the browser. The noise from it, though not very loud, but it is noticeable. This is the price paid for a thin body in a relatively budget model. Switching to this laptop after a stationary PC, you will enjoy the silence. But for me, after working for a 3-year-old HP, which did not (and still does not) make any sounds until the opening of the 10th tab in the browser, the noise from the new laptop is annoying. The sound from the speakers is quite loud, but muffled. The battery lasts about 4 hours for office use. Separately, I note a compact power supply (65 W), the presence of one USB Type-C and a full-fledged card reader. SSD speed test in the photo.
