Editorial note

The Lenovo Essential G710A positions itself as a solid laptop, ideal for professionals and multimedia users thanks to its Intel® Core™ i5 processor and 6 GB of RAM, ensuring reliable performance and smooth usage for everyday tasks. Its large storage space of 1000 GB offers optimal flexibility for backing up various files and applications, making this device particularly attractive for those who need to manage a large amount of data. The 17.3-inch screen with a HD+ resolution of 1600 x 900 pixels provides a pleasant visual experience, although it may seem low compared to current standards for users demanding high image quality. Furthermore, the integrated stereo audio technology and the two speakers offer quality sound for videos and music. However, the Lenovo Essential G710A has some drawbacks. The 6 GB of RAM may be insufficient for users with high multitasking needs or for demanding applications. Additionally, the lack of a USB 3.0 port limits data transfer speeds, which could be a drawback for some users. Its weight of 2900 g may also make transport less convenient for those looking for a lightweight and portable device. Finally, the 5-hour battery life may not be enough for professionals on the go, who need extended longevity. In summary, the Lenovo Essential G710A is a capable and well-equipped laptop for common professional tasks, but it may not meet the expectations of those seeking higher specifications in terms of RAM, connectivity, and battery life.
