Mediocre product, probably won't use.

Review Unit 20VE00FLRU (Intel Core i5 1135G7, 15.6", 1920 x 1080, 8 GB RAM, 512 GB Solid State Drive, Intel Iris Xe Graphics, No Operating System). The laptop gives off a rather unsettling vibe in general. Except for the cost of iron, there are no significant advantages when compared to the latest models from competitors. However, there are several examples of incompetence that may be addressed without a corresponding increase in cost.

Pros
  • The value you get for your money is superb. 51,000 for an i5 1135G7 with 8GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, and the chassis is expertly made with no bending or creaking.
Cons
  • Typing device. Both the up and down arrows need to be larger. When NumLock is deactivated, the only keys on the NumPad that can be used for multimedia are Play, Stop, Forward, and Back, and Home, End, Page Up, and Page Down. It's not practical for sitting in an office all day. There is no shortcut to go to sleep. The USB ports are rather snug, so hold the laptop firmly by the rear when you plug in the cords. The speakers produce an extremely lifeless sound that is unfit for a musical film experience. I recalled hearing that on laptops around a decade ago. - sturdy hinges for the screen. When the laptop is already open, even adjusting the viewing angle by a small amount requires holding the bottom section. The colors on the screen are inaccurate and garish. Intel's integrated graphics software ultimately included a fix, though not a perfect one. I used a laptop running DOS and experienced great hardship. To begin, the SSD wasn't recognized by Windows during setup, thus a driver had to be manually downloaded. The issue stopped occurring after I swapped out the previous laptop's HDD for a solid-state drive. Second, neither Windows nor Lenovo's proprietary software did any sort of automatic driver detection after Windows was installed. Each one required a manual download and set-up on my part.
