    Lenovo IdeaPad 1 15.6" Full HD Touchscreen Laptop ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I’ve been using the Lenovo Ideapad 1 with the Ryzen 7 5700U, 16GB memory, and 512GB SSD, and it’s a fantastic laptop for its price range. Performance: With the Ryzen 7 5700U processor, this laptop handles multitasking like a pro. I’ve run demanding applications like video editing software, web development tools, and multiple browser tabs simultaneously, and it doesn’t break a sweat. The 16GB of RAM ensures smooth performance, even with heavy workloads. Graphics: The AMD Radeon Graphics provides excellent visuals for casual gaming and video editing. While it’s not a gaming laptop, it performs surprisingly well for games like Fortnite or Apex Legends in medium settings. Display: The 15.6" Full HD touchscreen is a pleasure to use. Colors are vibrant, and the touchscreen is responsive, adding convenience for tasks like scrolling through documents or zooming in on images. Storage: With a 512GB SSD, there’s plenty of room for files, applications, and media. The SSD also ensures fast boot times and quick application launches. Portability & Design: The cloud-gray finish gives it a sleek and modern look. At just over 4 lbs, it’s light enough to carry around for work or study. However, I do miss having a keyboard backlight, especially when working in low-light conditions. It’s a small but noticeable omission. Battery Life: The battery life is impressive, lasting around 8–10 hours on moderate use, which is ideal for a full workday. Who is it for? This laptop is perfect for students, professionals, and casual gamers who need a reliable machine for multitasking, productivity, and light gaming. Conclusion: The Lenovo IdeaPad 1 offers excellent value for the price. Its robust performance, vibrant touchscreen, and modern design make it a solid choice for anyone looking for a versatile and powerful laptop. While the lack of a keyboard backlight is a minor downside, it doesn’t take away from the overall great experience. Highly recommended! Rating: 9/10

    High quality build from lenovo. Comes with the radeon 5700m apu and 16gb of ram so will work fine for bothe home and casual gaming. Just keep in mind it only has a 512Gb ssd. Plenty fast, starts up to log in screen in just a few seconds. Beautiful display and battery life is decent, though its definitely a radeon you're running. Lastly, one of the best feeling chicklet keyboards I've ever used....

    First of all, this product is performing great. I can confidently say that it is the best cost-effective product of our time. Second, it is light in weight, and the display is good. Of course, the display may be a bit inferior compared to other Galaxy Books or MacBooks released these days, but the performance is not inferior at all. Considering the price, it can be said to be a perfect product. Third, it runs smoothly as a model equipped with the Ryzen 7 series. It has 16GB of RAM, which is incredible at this price, so there is no need to say more about performance. Lastly, considering the price, I can't complain, but if I had to pick one for the sake of the review, the AMD Radeon graphic card would be a bit disappointing. However, unless you do professional video editing, there is no problem with general movie watching or game play.

    I have always been a LENOVO fan. Whether you're multitasking between several applications or running more demanding programs, the performance is robust and reliable. The Lenovo Ideapad 1 15.6" Full HD Touchscreen Laptop is a solid choice for users who need a reliable, well-rounded laptop for general use. Its powerful processor, ample memory, and touchscreen display make it suitable for work and light entertainment. However, if you’re looking for high-end gaming or ultra-durable construction, you might need to consider other options. For its price, it offers great value and performance for most everyday needs.

    I was originally planning to buy a Lenovo Yogo on the Black Friday sale, but it ran out of inventory. I chose this laptop that was also on sale at a very attractive price for Black Friday. I am impressed with the speed of this laptop and how quickly it boots up. I did install MS Office and it handles that just fine with multiple applications and tabs open. Battery life is over 8 hours when running mobile. The display is sharp and larger than most laptops, yet this laptop is also light for transporting. No issues yet or regrets on this purchase!

    So…right from the start let me say I do indeed like this PC from Lenovo. I originally had a MacBook Pro M1 but my sister got into college so I decided she could use it for her study’s. Being left without a pc, and working from an old Lenovo AiO Desktop from 2015 or something, I decided it’s time to get a pc. I chose this Lenovo IdeaPad 1 15ALC7 because one, it was half off, duh! BTW, Thank you Best Buy! But two, and most important, because this laptop is very capable of running multiple programs at any given time. It had a great display, and it can be used for light gaming for when you want to take a break from work or studies. Example: I can have YouTube tutorial videos opened, jot down notes from class lectures on Word, and work on a document in OnShape. No issues. As of now, everything seems to be running smooth. Only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was because for a PC like this, there should be backlit keys installed. Shouldn’t take some time out of your day, having technical know-how, and say about $30-$80 additional dollars to have backlit keys installed. There’s that and the battery life topic, on this thing, battery life has me puzzled, some days it lasts like it says it’s intended to, and other days I’m finding myself plugging in once or twice a day. Still I like it. Kinda giving apple vibes with its sleek design but it’s okay, I like not having that big apple front and center.

    Laptop works for what I need, bought it for as a new college laptop price wasn't bad for it being on sale. Sound quality isn't the greatest, I think the placement of the speakers was a poor choice, it is on the bottom sides, so I feel it being on a surface it sounds muffled. Battery life is well I've been using it for few days and haven't charged it yet, after the first initial charge. The keys don't light up on this laptop, which I thought did, which was kind of sad. Screen size is perfect compared to the smaller pc I had, runs soon, only had an issue with it not correcting date and time with it being on autozone for time but if you hit the sync button on the settings from an your previous pc account it should correct it.

    A fast, powerful laptop with decent battery life

    The laptop is good, it’s fast and handles all of my applications with ease with no lag or stutter. I have no complaints when it comes to performance but my only gripe with this computer is that the battery life is a bit on the low side. I don’t do many battery-intensive activities on the laptop, programming being the main thing I do on it, and the battery lasts for about 5-6 hours on average. That is significantly lower than the description quoting about ‘9 hours’ of screen on time. Even basic tasks like watching YouTube, surfing the web, or replying to emails drains the battery quite a bit so idk what’s going on there. Regardless, I feel happy with my purchase as the laptop suits my needs perfectly and I will definitely recommend it to people looking for a reliable laptop that can do basic and and some intensive tasks with ease.

    I got a great deal during Cyber Monday. I was able get this laptop for $429.99. Best bang for my buck being that it has a Ryzen 7 with Radeon Graphics. Great Memory and RAM for the Cyber Monday deal. If you are looking for a reliable mid-level laptop, I highly recommend. My only complaint is that the keyboard does not have a backlight, but for the cyber price, I can't really complain.
