The best thing Ive ever used, a great item for everyone!

A MacBook Air running on M1 is my primary work machine. Even though I rarely use a desktop computer, I decided to upgrade to a Lenovo laptop because my old, 10-year-old PC was too slow and took up too much room. The plan is to make use of Windows for a variety of tasks, including the usage of old and not too old games (including online with friends; for new games, there are PS4 and XBox Series S) and, most significantly, the storage of various types of files (pictures, videos, movies, music, documents). I've used Lenovo laptops before; the one we had was an IdeaPad, and it was perfect for the group. What has been discussed largely applies to all laptops in this series in principle. I have no complaints about the item, and would happily suggest it to anyone. Initially, I was going to go with a cheaper "typewriter" variant, but after seeing this, I decided to spring for the faster processor and the floppy video card. Naturally, the MacBook is far ahead in terms of user experience, but for Windows laptops in this price bracket, this model is superb. I quickly adopted the update in order to enhance many characteristics. We installed a SODIMM Apacer [ES.04G2V. KNH] (4GB, 999) memory expansion. Added 120GB Apacer M.2 AST280 SSD (model number: AP120GAST280-1). (1299) I was able to get a license key for Windows 10 Professional at a very low price (less than $500) on one of the more popular marketplaces. Total - 39144. The laptop is fantastic quality for the price, easily outperforming many alternatives.

Pros
  • This is an IdeaPad 3 15IML05 by Lenovo, model number 81WB00T8RK. For $36,399, I purchased it on Amazon. Core i3 processor, separate GeForce MX130 graphics card, and 1 TB hard disk for that price seems suspiciously low. Lenovo and other ceiling manufacturers make laptops in the same series with substantially inferior performance for the same price or more. In most cases, a present rather than a deed. Getting your hands on a laptop is essential for making it ideal in every way, but that will have to wait for now. Among the benefits: The Full HD IPS display is excellent, with no glare being noticeable. That whatever is black is black. No strain on the eyes from reading the well labeled buttons and menus. Good quality audio for a laptop speaker system. Keyboard's numeric keypad. High-quality plastic and construction. When the keyboard is pressed, it bends ever so little. But if your typing style is more gentle than that of a woodpecker, you won't have any trouble with this. The size of the keys is just right (maybe a touch on the narrow side, but otherwise perfect), and everything is where it should be.
Cons
  • Without USB Type-C, 2022 is just around the corner. Is this a joke you just came up with, Lenovo? The front-facing camera is mediocre. The left side is completely devoid of ports. The cooling system makes a noise even when running normally, however I believe this is something that can be modified. Less than 8 GB of RAM is required. The WD hard drive didn't seem very speedy to me, but maybe that's just because I'm used to working with an SSD and not a traditional hard drive. No OS. It would have been possible to secure the SSD with the provided screw.
