Editorial note

The Lenovo B430 is a laptop that stands out for its modern and sleek design, especially with its black finish. Weighing 2150 g, it offers appreciated portability, although some users may find it a bit heavy. This model is equipped with an Intel® Pentium B960 dual-core processor, ensuring smooth performance for everyday tasks such as web browsing and word processing. However, it may show its limits when faced with more demanding applications or when running multiple tasks simultaneously. The battery life, reaching 6.4 hours, is adequate for daily use, but may not be enough for extended sessions without access to a power outlet. Additionally, the Lenovo B430 offers generous storage of 500 Go, allowing for a large amount of data to be kept. However, the 4 Go RAM may be perceived as insufficient for users who wish to run multiple heavy applications, potentially leading to slowdowns. In terms of connectivity, although the model has USB, HDMI, and Ethernet ports, the lack of a USB 3.0 port may limit data transfer speeds with modern devices. This can be a drawback for those who need to transfer large files quickly. Overall, the Lenovo B430 offers good value for basic use, but its limitations in performance and connectivity may restrict its appeal to advanced users.
