Reviews for the Lenovo Ideapad 510S-14IKB

The Lenovo IdeaPad 510S is the type of PC that doesn’t get a lot of respect. It’s clearly a machine borne out of compromise. We’re all so anxious to spend lots of money on the next must-have notebook or 2-in-1 that looks cool and is so thin that we forget about reasonably priced machines like this. The IdeaPad 510S offers users a mostly solid experience. It does this while starting at only $649 and maxing out at $899.

Despite all it has to offer, the laptop remains highly portable with a weight lesser than an average textbook and a slim design, and brings with it a moderate sub-$700 price tag, depending on configuration. Price starts at $650 USD on Lenovo’s website.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.
The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.

In 2011, it acquired a majority stake in Medion AG, a European computer hardware manufacturer. In 2014, Motorola Mobility was purchased, which gave Lenovo a boost in the smartphone market.
80%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
