Review Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E520 Notebook | Notebookcheck
The Golden Balance? The Chinese notebook manufacturer, Lenovo, aims its new Lenovo ThinkPad Edge E520 at "Small-and-Medium-sized-Businesses" (SMB) as well as areas like "Small Office and Home Office" (SOHO). The new model entices buyers with its well-known exterior, the latest hardware, a matt 15.6 inch screen, and a price tag of 650 Euros. An alternative to cheap mainstream plastic laptops?

The dedicated graphics card adds to its price and won’t be necessary for a lot of people, but the ThinkPad Edge E520 is still a very well-rounded laptop that costs less than you might think for its specification.

Lenovo ThinkPad Edge E520 Review
Source: Student Buying Guide Archive.org version
If you’re on a budget, as many of us are, then the Edge E520 with its quality build and latest Intel processor technology is a great buy in the mid $500 range. The E520 is a practical laptop for those on a budget but who still want something that’s going to last and won’t be outdated technology wise in two years. The base level configuration should be ample performance for the average buyer, I found that the Intel Core i3-2350m processor was a nice bump in performance over the former Core i3-2310m that used to come with the ThinkPad E520. Even though the E520 is a little more modern with its design than the classic ThinkPad, it’s still probably not going to turn heads. The lack of a screen resolution upgrade from 1366 x 768 is unfortunate too, the more premium T520 has 3 screen resolution options, the E520 should at least have gotten 2.
