Our take on the Lenovo IdeaPad 330S

The IdeaPad 330S is a 15.6-inch budget laptop built around an 8th-gen Intel Core i5-8250U, a polished aluminum lid and narrow 5.9 mm screen bezels. It drops the DVD drive to shave thickness, pairs a 1TB 5400RPM hard drive with Intel Optane memory, and adds Dolby Audio. It suits students and light office users who want a big screen and a metal-topped chassis on a tight budget. Against rivals it trades a low-resolution 1366 x 768 panel and a slow spinning drive for a stronger CPU and a slimmer body, and reviewers note the screen and disk speed as the main weak points.

Questions and answers

Is the IdeaPad 330S good for gaming?
Only for light or older titles. It uses Intel integrated graphics, not a dedicated GPU, so demanding games will run poorly.
Does it have an SSD?
This configuration uses a 1TB 5400RPM hard drive plus Intel Optane memory. Optane speeds up boot and frequent files but is not a full SSD.
Is the screen full HD?
No. This model has a 1366 x 768 panel, which is below full HD for a 15.6-inch screen.
Can I upgrade the memory or storage?
The 330S has a service panel for RAM and storage, so many owners swap the hard drive for an SSD and add memory. Check the specific configuration before buying.
What is in the box?
The laptop and its power adapter. A mouse and sleeve are not included.
Is it good for students?
Yes for notes, web and office work. The large screen and metal lid suit campus use, but the low-resolution display and slow drive are the trade-offs.
Where is the Lenovo IdeaPad 330S cheapest?
At Cypress & Main, for $94.00, as of our latest check.
