With a big screen and a reasonably good processor, this IdeaPad 1 is a great budget laptop if you need something basic for work or school.
The Lenovo IdeaPad is made for the average day-to-day that almost everyone has, whether at work, school, or even home. Whether it’s basic things like a webcam cover for privacy or an SD card reader, it’s designed around convenience and versatile everyday use. That said, the best thing about it is its price, which makes it one of the best budget laptops you can grab right now, and in fact, Lenovo is having a great deal on it right now.
For just $230, rather than the usual $330, the IdeaPad 1 is a pretty amazing laptop to grab, especially since you rarely see a sub-$300 price tag on 15-inch laptops. While it’s roughly at the same level as a Chromebook in terms of power, you do get to run Windows for familiarity and a much bigger screen. Lenovo even throws in Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.
