New Ideapad 100

Tomorrow, May 28, the same day that Google I/O will take place, which threatens to overshadow all the news that may be in the technology sector, Lenovo will celebrate its big day in Beijing with the Lenovo Tech World event. And so that the announcements do not accumulate, today it has already started to open fire presenting three new laptops.

"

The first is the New Ideapad 100, the Chinese manufacturer&39;s answer to Google&39;s Chromebooks that will equip an Intel BayTrail processor and will cost only 249 dollars. The other two devices are almost twin brothers, two other battle laptops with specifications that without being dazzling are more than enough for ordinary mortals: the Lenovo Z41 and Z51."

Lenovo Z41 and Z51

These are two simple laptops that will not win any awards for their graphic power or their extreme thinness, but they start with the idea to position itself as good 14 and 15-inch equipment for daily use by users who want a versatile laptop and with which they do not need to mortgage the house to be able to pay for it.

The Z41 and Z51 can be equipped with the most powerful processors on the market up to the fifth generation Intel Core i7, and we can also include up to 16 GB of RAM memoryor all the hard drive space we need. Although we find the negative point in that we will have to settle for fairly normal graphics cards.

Both teams will go on sale next month for a price starting at 499 euros. Here you have a graph with its general characteristics:

Lenovo New Ideapad 100

This last device is even cheaper than the previous ones, and it will try to play in the same league that Google is taking advantage of with its Chromebooks. Its great asset will be to offer a versatile, balanced team without excesses for a price that will start at $249 for its most basic configuration.

In exchange we will have a laptop with a screen that can be 14 or 15 inches with 720p resolution, an Intel BayTrail-M N3540 processor and up to 8 GB of memory RAM, which we can accompany with up to 500 GB HDD or 128 GB SSD. Its battery will last 4 hours, which although it's nothing special, it's not too bad considering its price.
