The IdeaPad Slim 5 is Lenovo's mid-range everyday laptop, here in a 16-inch version with a 1920x1200 touchscreen, a 60Hz panel and a backlit keyboard. It runs Windows on an octa-core Intel CPU with 16GB RAM and a 512GB or 1TB SSD, and adds a fingerprint reader, USB-A, USB-C and HDMI ports, and EPEAT registration. At 4.2 lb it is light for a 16-inch machine, and Lenovo claims up to 15 hours of battery. It suits students and office users who want a big screen and a numpad-friendly chassis without paying premium ultrabook money; rivals like the Dell Inspiron 16 and HP Pavilion 16 offer similar hardware, but few match the fingerprint reader and EPEAT rating at this tier.
