Reviews for the Lenovo V15 G5 IRL
Source: Laptop Media
The Lenovo V15 Gen 5 presents itself as a straightforward, budget-conscious laptop aimed squarely at users needing a functional tool for everyday productivity and basic business tasks. It offers a clean, professional aesthetic, albeit one built entirely from plastic that exhibits some flex and, on the black model, a tendency to attract fingerprints. It successfully keeps the weight down for a 15-inch machine, enhancing its portability. For its intended purpose, the V15 Gen 5 delivers adequate performance, especially with the surprisingly fast NVMe SSD found in our unit, which significantly boosts responsiveness in day-to-day operations. The keyboard provides a comfortable typing experience and includes a welcome NumPad, while the inclusion of a physical webcam shutter and a built-in Ethernet port are practical additions often omitted in this price range.

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.
