And now let's understand in more detail.

Lenovo IdeaPad 1xx / 3xx: entry-level multimedia laptops

A range of laptops of the initial and middle class for performing the simplest tasks. Interestingly, Lenovo positions these models as inexpensive multimedia laptops, so the quality of the display here is often no less important than the internal power. While in most low-cost models of other brands there are very simple matrices with low resolution and colour reproduction. Laptops can be equipped with discrete graphics, which also makes it possible to play undemanding games at minimal or slightly higher settings. The average check for such a model is about $ 400.

Lenovo IdeaPad 5xx / 7xx: affordable fashion laptops

The next step in the evolution of IdeaPad. In fact, it is all the same IdeaPad, but a little faster, thinner, more beautiful and more sophisticated. The average check for current models has grown to $800, more performant Core i3 and Core i5 processors have settled under the hood instead of Celeron processors, the amount of RAM has grown to the required minimum of 8 GB (and sometimes up to 16 GB), and in some cases even GTX 1050 Ti video cards have been added. And this is quite a level of an inexpensive gaming laptop. As for external attributes, here we have a stylish aluminium case with a thickness of 17-18 mm, a moderate weight not exceeding 1.5 kg and pleasant bonuses like dual–band Wi-Fi or a fingerprint scanner.

Lenovo IdeaPad C: inexpensive transformers with touch screen

For most manufacturers, transformer laptops are more of a premium class: heaped up to the most I don't want and cost from $ 1000. Excellent illustrations are HP ENVY 17-ce0000 or Asus ZenBook Flip 14 UX461FA . The logic of manufacturers is clear here, laptops with touch screens are quite specific and not everyone needs them. Lenovo decided otherwise and in 2019 released 2 inexpensive models with 14 and 15-inch touch screens to the market. The average check in both cases was about $800, the appearance is almost the same, and the filling is slightly weaker than that of the older IdeaPad models. And without a gaming graphics card. Instead, a capacious battery, fast charging and stylus support are more relevant for this format.

Lenovo IdeaPad L: laptops for multimedia and games

A family of medium-format gaming laptops with a high-quality 15-inch display, a full-size backlit keyboard, good battery life and a balanced hardware configuration. Designed for use as mobile gaming stations, they can also serve as a universal home PC, replacing a full-size desktop. Looking at the characteristics of these laptops, the epithet "optimal" immediately comes to mind — the prices are low, the filling is moderately fast, no unnecessary bells and whistles. As for the game features, then you need to look at the name. The usual IdeaPad L uses a built-in graphics core, while the models with the "Gaming" prefix have GTX 1050 and GTX 1650 video cards. Add a new Core i5 to it, more RAM and get a comfortable framerate with high graphics settings in almost any blockbuster game.

The cases of the first series are made of plastic, the third are made of plastic and metal, the 5th are completely aluminium. Also in the older models you can find a shutter for a webcam, keyboard backlight and fast charging, while the younger models have good battery life.

Lenovo Legion Y: stylish gaming laptops of the future

In the last year or two, laptop manufacturers have begun to abandon the excessively colorful and aggressive design of gaming models and began to draw ideas from premium business models. Lenovo Legion is the clearest confirmation of this. Moreover, a damn stylish confirmation.

The average Legion boasts an attractive screen with thin frames, an unusual hinge that allows you to turn the screen 180 degrees, and a monophonic lid with an asymmetrical logo and a pattern that looks like either wood fibre or a fingerprint.

Only a couple of massive coolers hidden in the base, powerful hardware and juicy game screens remind of belonging to the famous gaming family.

Lenovo ThinkBook: image laptops for business

ThinkBook is a new family of branded laptops from Lenovo, designed for businessmen and entrepreneurs. In fact, this is an alternative to all the well-known, but not all available laptops of the ThinkPad series with a bias towards increased data protection (TPM encryption module, fingerprint scanner, protective curtain for the webcam) and the laptop itself (optional waterproof keyboard and durable case). The power of the "engine" without frills (Core i3 and Core i5 processors of the tenth generation + built-in video core), just enough to work comfortably. Of the other buns, there are often fast Wi-Fi modules of the 6th generation, bidirectional microphones and HD webcams for high-quality video communication. Everything is excellent in terms of battery life, many models can withstand from 8 to 12 hours in medium load mode with a display brightness of 40%

Lenovo ThinkPad: legendary business class laptops with branded trackpoint

The legendary family of laptops, which was first released in the distant 92nd year under the flags of IBM. Which was then bought by Lenovo. Given such a rich inheritance, it is not surprising that there is an unprecedented variety in the ThinkPad camp, you can find both portable ultrabooks and conventional "typewriters", as well as powerful "heavy trucks" mixed with expensive business class models.

Each ThinkPad is equipped with a proprietary trackpoint, which is an interesting and unusual alternative to a standard mouse or trackpad. It works according to the following principle: the direction of pressure determines the direction of movement of the mouse cursor, and the force of pressure sets the cursor speed. Although it sounds simple in words, the feeling of working with him is quite unusual. But the thing is really convenient. For a reason, it has been a trademark attribute of the Thinkpad line since the mid-90s.

Otherwise, all this diversity is united by the general idea that a serious working laptop should be protected in every possible way. In some models, you can find a standard set of a TPM module, a fingerprint scanner, an "anti-theft" lock and a shutter for a webcam. Other representatives of the line type {!!! block='price' idgood='1312682' !!! They go further by offering customers a carbon fibre housing that is resistant to shocks and strong temperature changes.

Lenovo Yoga: stylish and functional transformers

The title of the series speaks for itself. These are high-performance image laptops and ultrabooks, which can be turned into a full-fledged tablet thanks to the touchscreen rotary screen. Most Yoga models look extremely sophisticated, assembled conscientiously and stuffed to the most I don't want. They seem to have been invented with the expectation of Apple fans. Therefore, attributes like a high-end display, Thunderbolt support or branded acoustics from the conditional JBL are found even in younger models. You can often find a 4K display with HDR support or an incredible battery that can work for 25 hours without recharging. Occasionally in 15-inch models there are variants with high-performance GTX 1050 video cards. And this is interesting in itself, since ultrabooks usually prevail among transformers, and not classic 15-inch laptops.
