The family of ultra-budget laptops from Lenovo, combining low-power and affordable laptops for study and the simplest tasks. They are based on quite unusual 5-core entry-level processors, the Intel Pentium 12th generation (Alder Lake). The RAM size can be modest at 4 GB by 2023 standards. However, models with 8 GB are more commonly found. Due to their modest computing capabilities, Lenovo IdeaPad 1 15IAU7 laptops are positioned by the manufacturer as affordable entertainment devices, tools for study, or office laptops for working with texts, spreadsheets, and web interfaces.
The Lenovo IdeaPad 1 15IJL7 laptops are equipped with 15.6-inch displays with TN+film matrices, anti-glare coating, and a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. The image output is handled by the processor's integrated UHD Graphics XeD, providing a basic level of 3D performance. A built-in cryptographic module protects user data, used for data encryption and secure authentication in corporate networks.
For video calls, there is an HD-quality webcam with a mechanical shutter, simple stereo speakers, and a wireless adapter supporting Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.0. Users can rely on good battery life (up to 11 hours of use) and fast charging support (15 minutes provide 2 hours of operation). Additionally, all laptops in this series claim to be lightweight and compact (1.63 kg, 18 mm), suitable for work outside the home.
