Editorial note

The Lenovo IdeaPad G480 is a laptop that stands out for its modern and sleek black design, offering an intuitive interface that facilitates daily use. With an Intel® Celeron® B830 dual-core processor, it provides smooth performance for basic tasks such as web browsing and word processing. However, it may show its limits when running resource-intensive applications or during heavy multitasking. Its generous storage capacity of 1000 Go allows for the backup of a large amount of data, multimedia files, and applications without worrying about space. Additionally, the nickel-metal hybrid battery ensures extended battery life, making it an ideal choice for daily use without frequent recharging. However, some drawbacks are worth noting. The 4 Go RAM may quickly become insufficient for users who need to manage multiple applications simultaneously. The lack of USB 3.0 ports and Bluetooth limits connectivity, which can be a disadvantage for those using modern peripherals. Furthermore, the screen resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels may not meet the expectations of users looking for superior display quality. In summary, the Lenovo IdeaPad G480 represents good value for money, especially for users looking for an affordable and efficient laptop for everyday tasks. However, it is advisable to consider its limitations in terms of performance and connectivity before making a choice.
