The Lenovo S21e-20 is a decent ultraportable budget laptop, with a fair share of storage, and it runs smoothly if you're not using intensive applications like Adobe Photoshop. If you're a student with modest computing needs—like writing papers and doing research—the S21e-20 is a perfectly good computer that is portable and wallet-friendly. However, the HP Stream 13 remains our Editors' Choice for budget ultraportable laptops, with much better performance, a larger, brighter display, and a more attractive design for less.

Potential buyers should know that Lenovo achieves that price by sacrificing display and keyboard quality, processing power, and battery life. Looking at each element in context reveals that Lenovo made the right calls. Even a mediocre display by today’s standards is still pretty good. The keyboard’s shallow strokes can be frustrating, but it’s still usable, and undoubtedly better than any on-screen tablet or smartphone alternative. In terms of processing power, the S21e manages Windows 8.1, and more importantly, Windows 10 just fine. Again, it’s at least equal to many mobile Windows devices on the market, and perfectly capable for modest productivity.

The $269 Lenovo S21e is the saltine cracker of budget notebooks: not bad, not good, just bland. Thankfully, it doesn't leave a dry taste in your mouth, but it's relatively short battery life and finicky touchpad will make you wonder if there's something better out there. The answer is yes. The $199 HP Stream 11 performs similarly to the S21e, has a slightly longer battery life, and lets you choose a cerulean blue or bright purple notebook with more personality.
