    Lenovo ideapad 510 (15") in-depth review

    The Lenovo Ideapad 510 might seem like the average budget-oriented notebook at first but actually, the device has a lot more to offer than its competitors and the difference is in the details. It comes as a breath of fresh air after the Ideapad 310, which lacked several key features for its asking price but if you are willing to spend just a few dollars extra, we strongly recommend the Ideapad 510 over the lower-end Ideapad 310.Why? Because it sports the same hardware as the similarly priced ASUS X556 and the Acer Aspire E 15 (E5-575G) - Intel Core i5-7200U (or Core i7-7500U), 8GB of D[...]

    Pros

    • Good keyboard
    • Decent overall build with a small exception
    • Portable
    • Excellent IPS panel for the asking price

    Cons

    • Subpar battery life
    • Protruding edge around the keyboard area
    • The screen uses PWM from 0 to 99% brightness (the Health-Guard profile fixes that)
