Lenovo IdeaPad L3 15IML05 81Y3001PRU

Advantages: 1. Good processor. YouTube can play 2160p60 with absolutely no stuttering. 2. SSD. Big, fast. Windows 10 starts up in about 10 seconds, already with the installed programs. 3. Appearance and assembly. It looks amazing, the plastic is of high quality, not cheap. Should not crack. 4. Battery and charging. Lives for a long time if you do the maximum energy saving, and charges quickly. A few minutes is enough to raise the charge from 15% to 23%. 5. One year warranty from the manufacturer. And by the QR code below the keyboard (seen in the photo), you can find out how many days are left before it expires. 6. Screen. Moved it here because of the shortcomings. "In principle, it is normal. Clear, bright. But the color rendering did not suit me at all - the colors are too faded, there is a lot of white, the brightness does not help at all. There is no contrast even more. Apparently, it is necessary to somehow manually adjust it, if at all can." - I wrote this before. Now I update the information - in Windows there is a command for manual monitor calibration. Thanks to him, we managed to change the picture for the better - the colors are now more normal, there is a normal contrast. If you don't know what I'm talking about, just type in "how to calibrate a windows 10 monitor" on the Internet. 7. Excellent speakers and built-in microphone. Dolby Audio sound, in addition, there is a corresponding program. The microphone is clear, there is practically no noise. He is close to the camera, but even at a distance of a meter he perfectly hears a voice, even not very loud.

Disadvantages: 1. Videography. Honestly, I don't know what kind of video card it is that doesn't even have a number. It's just UHD Graphics ... For now, I will classify it as a disadvantage, simply because it is not clear what it is. And so it pulls GTA San Andreas at low in original resolution. WoT Blitz runs at 60 fps at minimum settings, with almost no sagging. 2. There is no slot for at least some SD card. On the other hand, there is a free Type C ... 3. A small drawback - this beautiful cover collects fingerprints. They are not very noticeable. but in the light they are striking. It's not easy to wipe them off with a T-shirt. You need something stronger.

Comment: The absence of Windows by default is not a disadvantage. You just need to know how to install it. And all the drivers are on the Lenovo website. If suddenly your touchpad does not work, you should know that there are no drivers for it, its performance depends on the chipset drivers. They are the ones that the laptop needs in the first place.

Advantages: Build quality. Hull strength. The bottom panel is really thick gray plastic without paint, there is nothing to peel off. The possibility of a small upgrade. Compact power supply. Active processor cooling.

Disadvantages: In principle, you don't expect much for that kind of money, but there are no obvious jambs. The processor is ideal for a typewriter, watching vidos, etc. The closest analogue of the video chip is UHD620. You won't be able to roll back to an eight or seven normally - there are simply no drivers in nature for this model. The keyboard is one piece with the top panel of the laptop and changes, most likely, along with it (followed the Apple path). Those who like to drink coffee with a laptop should be more careful and careful. Turning off the laptop under the ten is not too obvious - you need to hold the power button for more than one second, just "poking" is not enough.

Comment: If you remove the back cover, which is easy to remove, then suddenly you find: 1. An empty slot for DDR-4 memory (4 gig is soldered on the board, I finished it to 8, which I advise everyone). 2. The second connector for a 2.5 "SATA hard drive. And even a basket for it is already inside. I used this and plugged in a second SSD. Everything works fine. 3. A place with a connector for installing a DVD drive, which allows you to plug it into a laptop at least a third hard disk instead of a drive 4. Cooling of the processor (the fan is available) is fastened with three screws, the heatsink - four. Dismantling of these is available simply by removing the back cover of the laptop to lubricate the fan or replace the thermal paste. work without problems (checked personally) Ubuntu, Mint, Elementary OS.The only proprietary driver that will be attracted is from the waffle.So, it's better to roll the linux with a wired Internet.In general, this is the dream of a man with hands (not even very straight ones).
