Lenovo V155 (15) review – this ultra-budget business device has some performance in its pocket
Source: Laptop Media English Archive.org version
Ultra-budget business notebook? Okay. What exactly makes a laptop a business one? Well, the most prominent features that drive the Lenovo V155 (15) to that direction are the camera cover and the so-called industrial-looking design. While it looks industrial, the build quality is certainly not on that level. The lid is twisty and bendy, while on the bright side, the base is a little more rigid. As of the finish on the surface, it looks interesting, and it can be used as a very efficient stress reliever by scratching your nails on it.

On the verge of listing poor things, we have to mention the touchpad. It is far too sensitive, which results in a lot of misclicks. Moreover, we just can’t stress out how many times it detected a right-click, instead of a left one. However, it may or may not be because of an issue in our unit, although we highly doubt it.

Comment

Lenovo: Lenovo ("Le" from English legend, novo (Latin) for new) was founded in 1984 as a Chinese computer trading company. As of 2004, the company was the largest laptop manufacturer in China and, after acquiring IBM's PC division in 2005, the fourth largest in the world. In addition to desktops and notebooks, the company manufactures monitors, projectors, servers, etc, and specializes in developing, manufacturing and marketing consumer electronics, personal computers, software, enterprise solutions and related services.

In 2016, the company ranked first in the world in computer sales. It still held it in 2023 with about 23% global market share. Important product lines are Thinkpad, Legion and Ideapad.

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.

74.7%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
