Currently, the needs for using laptops are becoming extremely diverse, a moderate laptop ensures lightness of mobility, beautiful appearance to ‘shape up’ and at the same time the power also needs to be enough to do the job.

Appearance

Lenovo IdeaPad 720S has a very modern design, small and cute size with a sturdy metal outer shell, looks good at a glance and feels immediately ‘cool’ when touched.

In fact, the Lenovo IdeaPad 720S has the elegant appearance of a business laptop, it is very simple and the metal casing creates a premium feel.

The device’s connection ports are arranged on both sides with everything necessary including USB type A, USB Type C, HDMI, SD memory card reader and 3.5mm audio jack.

This layout is quite convenient for office workers or students, but sometimes it’s a bit cumbersome for gamers because they need to use a mouse and plug in devices and wires, which will hinder them quite a lot.

The screen joint of the Lenovo IdeaPad 720S is very flexible, can easily open nearly 180 degrees.

Keyboard and touchpad

The palm rest surface of the Lenovo IdeaPad 720S is also made of metal. In the hot season, it will feel cool to the touch, but in the cold season, it will take a while to feel right.

The keyboard is always a strong point of laptops from Lenovo and this product is no exception.

The touchpad of the Lenovo IdeaPad 720S is large in size, has a smooth surface that is very comfortable to use, and uses multi-touch very accurately.

Screen

The screen of the Lenovo IdeaPad 720S is 14 inches in size, with super thin bezels, making the device much smaller than older generation laptops.

The screen resolution on the Lenovo IdeaPad 720S is full HD 1080p, the icons will need to be scaled up to 150% to be reasonable to see clearly.

In fact, this monitor is delicious for normal work or gaming. Of course, the smoothness is not as smooth as specialized types with extremely fast scanning frequencies of 144Hz or higher, but it is still in good shape!

An interesting point is that the Lenovo IdeaPad 720S still has a webcam at the top of the screen, it is quite small and of sufficient quality, the straight viewing angle makes the frame not as weird as the one below.
