Lenovo IdeaPad S340 81N800H1US Laptop (15.6", Intel Core i3-8145U, 8GB RAM, 128GB SSD, Blue)

The Lenovo IdeaPad S340 81N800H1US is an affordable thin-and-light laptop PC. It features a 15.6-inch display with lower-end HD resolution, the 8th Gen Intel Core i3-8145U lower-mid-range processor, a generous RAM size of 8GB, a low-capacity but snappy 128GB solid state drive storage, and a battery life of “up to 8.5” hours (claimed by Lenovo). As a useful feature, the IdeaPad S340 81N800H1US has keyboard backlight. Overall, it’s nicely equipped notebook with very good performance for regular home and office use. It has elegantly designed “abyss blue” chassis and a light weight of 4 pounds. The only potentially big downside of the IdeaPad S340 81N800H1US is its TN display technology, which can’t deliver wide viewing angles of IPS screens. Also, the usual Intel UHD 620 integrated graphics enables only very light gaming, but this isn’t a gaming laptop after all.

Usual starting price: around 449 USD* as of December 10, 2019.
