Reviews for the Lenovo IdeaPad 1 15ADA7, AMD 3020e
Source: PC Mag
Nobody buys a budget laptop expecting it to have all of the features and fine touches of a more expensive machine. Slower performance and less expansive feature sets are par for the course when the price dips below $400. But somehow, even with our realistic expectations, the Lenovo IdeaPad 1 15 is still underwhelming. It falls behind the competition in every performance category but battery life, which itself is largely thanks to a relatively dim, low-resolution display. In this price range, unless you can find a truly valuable deal on something like the Editors' Choice Lenovo IdeaPad 3 14 (which remains our favorite budget Windows laptop), you might be better served by leaving Microsoft behind and checking out a Chromebook.

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.
The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
