@@TacticalPower88 and you're really paying for the Apple OS when you get into the iPad. I don't find them comparable to laptops because the functionality is different. I use a cheap lenovo to program. I use a cheap iPad to read books. Different functions.
John Doe the apple value is in software not hardware. I agree. The entry level iPad isn’t a bad device if you don’t use it for gaming. That’s what the switch is for, which on specs and hardware is also quite bad
Better go for Linux I say. Android apps are more opted for arm CPU I think. Anyway, just curious it's not rhetorical question. Why would you use Android when you can have Linux? Media center?
The problem with this is due to being Windows with such low built in storage this should only be owned and used by power users only. I made the mistake a few years back buying the win8, atom quad core, 32GB storage, 2GB ram, laptops/tablets for black friday gifts and it was a nightmare on my end supporting the people I gifted them too. This is definitely a chromebook killer for the power user but the learning curve, no need for anti-malware, and power washing is a much better option for those who aren't technical nor intend to learn how to be at more than basic user levels. I still use my winbook tablets (both the 7" 1GB ram/16GB storage and 8" 2GB ram/32GB storage) and uBrand tablet (10" 2GB ram/32GB storage) depending on mood and travel requirements. When used for mainly browsing, media consumption, and low requirement gaming they are ideal imho but definitely not for the novice users.
Bought it last year. Still running totally acceptably well. Manages literally anything I do. Nicer to think of it as an alternative to an iPad/Amazon fire tablet of the same size...you can get the 10/11 inch Amazon fire tablet for the same price and it has the same size screen. I'd argue that the screen is nicer on my 10/11(can't remember size) fire tablet....and the battery life is comparable to each the tablet and this laptop. Works for everything you said it would and I'd never try to game on it because I'm not a gamer...but the battery life has been great for the past year... probably better than advertised at first... Charged each night would get me through a full day at 9-5ish college courses with judicious use of Killing Bluetooth and maybe airplane mode and lowering the brightness....if you totally lower the brightness it totally gets the battery life over ten hours tested. Running the hell out of this battery has left me one year later with about the advertised battery. This is a fantastic purchase. No issues with Linux either. Wifi works but I can't say I've ever tried to run it long enough off windows to get a fair estimate of battery life expectations. But I will say it works. I'll also add that I had a putty and or openvpn (stock client) running continuously in my day long classes which will speak to the impressive power management of the radios in this thing despite constant communication and wakeups.
@@UCKY5 True, but if you're just using it for emulation or low-end games and video streaming while you're stuck at an airport or in a hotel room, it's probably not a bad buy.
I got that too. They also have an interest free, four payment option for $35, after tax. I'd love to see him review that. I have had bad experiences with those low end AMD chips. I am doubtfull it will be any faster even with the extra RAM.
Yeah, I picked it up as a nightstand laptop for my wife. She’s always watching Something on TV while using her phone to browse the web. I figure this will be much easier. Bonus is that it keeps her off my gaming rig downstairs 😂 Not sure who the gift is for at that point
My mom just bought one of these. Its very easy to switch it over to Windows home in case some one was wondering. Its a nice little system for a low price.
Wow, that's actually much better than I expected it to be. Lenovo is a pretty damn good laptop maker ... Now I have to decide if I wanna get one lol. I've been saving for a gaming laptop, so this seems redundant 😭
Bought this in the beginning of 9th grade, served me well all throughout high school and took a lot of beating. Unfortunately yesterday the battery gave out and no longer worked. 10/10 laptop for the price and what it offers.
I have this laptop but with 4GB RAM and 64GB of eMMC storage. Paid $182 for it, wiped it and loaded up Manjaro and now it's my school notebook. It's a neat little machine with a GREAT keyboard(Lenovo makes some of the best notebook keyboards). May become a emulation machine for me when I get a better laptop.
Not usually my thing, but it's nice to know that if your down on your luck, there are devices out there that can still get you by and even help get you back on your feet.
It's amazing that laptop is blowing me away for the past 7 months, I wanted to see if I could record music or even see if I can use it as a small music production laptop for ideas. I'm finding myself know using this $99 laptop to do everything!
I've been rocking the 100s and now the 120s for quite some time now. I use them mainly to remote into other machines (both terminal and GUI stuff) as I simply have no use case for a beefier laptop right now. When it comes to typing I actualyl prefere these over much, much more expensive laptops. Guess if you don't have to care about style and thinness you can actually get some decent travel :D
I've got an old Asus laptop I got around 2003/2004 which I played Dawn of War on while on tour in Kosovo with the British Army. That might make a great little emulator system for work in the lorry.
Surprising how well this emulates dreamcast and gamecube. That CPU scores ~30% lower on cinebench and passmark than just a single core of my 4-5 year old i5-4690k, and the graphics are probably 50% slower than my i5-5200u laptop, which is also 4+ years old.
👍👍 on this review. Reminds me of the Acer Aspire I bought years ago for college. I wonder if you could possibly run some programs like VLC, OBS, and NewTek NDI to see how it handles those demands? Thanks
I’d really love to see you review the Pinebook Pro laptop. Great review again man, your a must watch for me👍 But I’d love to see how Ubuntu runs on this laptop.
Why would you pay so much for that laptop? for 99 USD, there are several options with 4GB RAM and Quad Core. Myself, I bought a Dell Chromebook 13 with 4GB and i3 CPU for 115 USD. Just flashed a new bios and installed Windows on it.

you should try unlocking the tdp, there are tutorials for this. It will improve performance significantly, and you should be able to boost to 2.6ghz for longer.
Sold out ... nothing found ... If you can upgrade to 4 or 6 GB and an ssd you'd be king ... cause 2 GB is a shame for such a powerfull cpu cause normaly you see these atom z8350 in those models, but the 4000 is far better
@ETAprime I have an old buddy with an i5 laptop that he doesnt need anymore. I was thinking about loading up a linux distro for retro gaming and I haven't done a conversion in a while. I have a few old mechanical drives around. Should I use a harddrive or just boot off of a USB? Which flavor should I use? I used to use recalbox, but from what i have seen from your videos it is Botocera now? Which flavor do you recommend for just purely retrogaming? Do these distros support steam inhome like the retropi?
I'm using its predecessor(Lenovo Ideapad 100s) for college. I had to change the operating to linux so that i could install Eclipse IDE because win10 wasn't just cutting it. On windows 10 it was running a 64bit processor and a 32bit operating system. The only thing i was able to find was a 64bit Eclipse(or maybe i didn't look hard enough.) Anyways, I tried installing BlissOS, PopOS, PeppermintOS, Linut Mint Cinnamon/MATE, Lubuntu 18.01-04, and Lubuntu 19.01-03. The one that gave me the least headache was Lubuntu 18.03. I ended up switching to PeppermintOS to fix the battery percentage issue.
I picked up one of these also. Haven't opened the box yet or anything. In theory, you think we could buy the exact same model of ram and (with good skills) use a hot air station to solder it on in the unpopulated area? I mean, I'm sure they didn't produce two separate boards for the different memory configurations. Was also thinking maybe a 2242 could fit in that lone m.2 that's populated by the wifi card. Did you notice it it was PCIe? Maybe I should just open the damn thing up lol
hi, thanks for this video. "Lenovo Ideapad V130 A - AMD Radeon R5 M530 - Intel Pentium N5000 - ram4 ddr4" please answer me I wanna buy this for warframe & apex legends & destiny 2 ( I don't care about beauty graphic, but I need help , what do you think? is this good ?
Dude, the flex 14 2 in 1 ryzen 7 3700U with Vega 10 graphics is one you should test out. It's a little beast. I've ran Outerworlds, Farcry 5, Batman Arkham Origin's, Watchmen The End Is Nigh and the dolphin emulator and it's only issue is battery life. With more power being used the faster your batteries go to shit😂
yes it can. i have this laptop and here's a list of games that work well that i've tested. rhythm heaven fever kirbys epic yarn nsmbw just dance games wii sports wii sports resort wii play animal crossing city folk mario party 8 9
@ETAPrime - can you please confirm if USB Type C port can be used to charge this laptop as well? If yes, is there any setting need to change in Win 10?
also, csgo has a recent problem with video playback. basically, the panorama ui is always playing videos in the background. To fix this i believe you have to rename the "video1"(?) folder to something else and launch the game using -novid. You should get alot more performance plus, my i5 7300hq/gtx 1050 was also running csgo like poop before the latest operations came out.
Linux video yes please! Any chance of an Android based OS like Phoenix OS? I try Not to be disparaging of any hardware but even I was dubious hearing 2 GB of RAM but I’m surprised how well it copes!
@ETA PRIME You should check out the A95X Max Plus Gamebox, i just saw a video of it and i was very impressed about that device. It's really up your alley.
I used to own the 110S a few years ago and I picked the 4gb version of this up a few months back. I planned on installing a M.2 SSD in this laptop like I did my 110s. But as you can see from your video this connector for the M.2 slot is missing. Despite looking at Lenovo's own manuals to confirm this should of had the M.2 slot it sadly did not. So I returned it. Super solid little low cost laptop, but a big bummer that they decided to get rid of that connector. The 110s ran like a completely different laptop with the upgraded M.2. Oh well. Nice review though!
Not a bad product for the lolly, in fairness. However, I'd rather pick up an older (but far more powerful), second-hand laptop from Ebay. Ex-corporate machines can be picked up relatively cheaply with way more memory, better GPU, larger screen, and a much faster processor. I never settle for less when I don't have to.

I try Not to be disparaging of any hardware but even I was dubious hearing 2 GB of RAM but I’m surprised how well it copes!
How does iishiruka run? Can it run wii games in iishiruka? (Iishiruka is a version of dolphin made for low end PCs)
@ETA PRIME You should check out the A95X Max Plus Gamebox, i just saw a video of it and i was very impressed about that device. It's really up your alley.
You had built a android gaming desktop
Can you recommend a good android gaming laptop or at least mention the specs of what can do the job
It has a m.2 ssd slot
I used to own the 110S a few years ago and I picked the 4gb version of this up a few months back. I planned on installing a M.2 SSD in this laptop like I did my 110s. But as you can see from your video this connector for the M.2 slot is missing. Despite looking at Lenovo's own manuals to confirm this should of had the M.2 slot it sadly did not. So I returned it. Super solid little low cost laptop, but a big bummer that they decided to get rid of that connector. The 110s ran like a completely different laptop with the upgraded M.2. Oh well. Nice review though!
Good price, even for a "disposable computer", 64gb is enough for Win10 updates as of now, 2GB of extra ram would have been great.
That’s a pretty good one honestly
Is there a suggestion for cyber day sales?
Just recently picked up one from a friend for 60 dollars how does steam run on this laptop?
Star Wars rouge squadron N64 please. This seems to be a hard one to run. Could you include this in more of your tests. Cheers.
My Core m-3 with 4 gigs of ram can barely run Smash on the GameCube. To the point its almost unplayable. I guess this Lenovo one is more powerful?
Not a bad product for the lolly, in fairness. However, I'd rather pick up an older (but far more powerful), second-hand laptop from Ebay. Ex-corporate machines can be picked up relatively cheaply with way more memory, better GPU, larger screen, and a much faster processor. I never settle for less when I don't have to.
On sale for 79.99 should I buy for school and some indie games
Ordered this exact model for just over 100 dollars last week so weird
Now this what I want to buy in uk cheap and capable at playing games
Love your videos! Do you think it could handling video editing software? Specifically Premiere Pro? Thanks!
The Office works well (Word, Power Point and Excel)?
How can it run these emulators???? How can it jump from 1.10 to 2.60 ??
