If you need a laptop that is rugged, has few compromises, has good day-to-day performance, and can handle gaming better than most thin and light laptops, then this is one of the best options for you as you read this article.What you should know from the get-go is that this laptop is a thin and light option based on Intel Core U hardware and entry-level Nvidia dedicated graphics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This allows it to handle day-to-day tasks smoothly, as well as most games at Full HD resolution with medium to high detail, but it&#8217;s definitely not as fast as some of the more powerful laptops in this price range.Design and first lookThis laptop is well built and feels great in the hand, this color version is smudge-free and should last a long time. It also looks good in a simple, unobtrusive way. There are some branding touches incorporated into the case, including a Lenovo logo on the hood and subtle Lenovo, JBL, and IdeaPad logos inside. There&#8217;s also no lighting or flashy elements, aside from the status LED on the left and the slightly annoying power key (which is part of the actual keyboard and is always on) .The IdeaPad 720s is a clamshell laptop. Its screen is held in place by a rather stubborn hinge that requires both hands to open, but otherwise holds up well and allows it to tilt back 180 degrees. This is an important aspect for those of us who don&#8217;t regularly use our laptops at our desks.<strong><u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.batteriesfast.co.uk\/search?search=Lenovo+IdeaPad+720s\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">IdeaPad 720s laptop battery<\/a><\/u><\/strong>\u00a0lifeUnfortunately, battery life is below average.
