Reviews for the Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming Chromebook 16

75% Lenovo IdeaPad 5 Gaming Chromebook review
Source: Tech Advisor
The IdeaPad 5 Gaming Chromebook is an impressive Chromebook for both day-to-day productivity and cloud gaming. There’s a lot to like here, including a bright, sharp display, good performance, great connectivity and excellent battery life. Lenovo has made some design sacrifices, though, while the keyboard and webcam aren’t the best. As good as this device is, Acer’s Chromebook 516 GE provides a slightly more well-rounded Chromebook gaming experience. But most people will be happy with either device, and the IdeaPad 5 Gaming Chromebook is a fine second choice.

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.
