日本Lenovo V15 Gen 4 review – is AMD the way to go?
As one of the least expensive offerings from the manufacturer, the Lenovo V15 Gen 4 is poised to tackle the neverending critique of people like us. However, its simplicity and low price will attract significantly more customers, than its possible disadvantages ever would.
Today, we are going to review this laptop, putting its hardware through a bunch of tests. The unit we got in our office is the AMD version of the model. It can be found with either an Athlon Silver, Athlon Gold, Ryzen 3 7320U, or Ryzen 5 7520U. As you can tell, there is quite a difference between the lowest-tier, and the highest-tier option, which could be essential at the end of the day.
In addition to that, you will find a laptop with a 1080p display. Unfortunately, a TN option is inevitable at this price range, however, there is an IPS unit as well. If you can afford it, definitely go for the IPS option.
Of course, this is if we think you would have any reason to get this device in the first place. Let’s take a moment to look at the specs sheet before we pop its box open and see what we got inside.

What’s in the box?
Inside the package, we find some boring paperwork, as well as a 65W charger.
hey, thanks for this review, a reasonable laptop that a lot of people are actually considering to buy.
Bonjour. e viens de faire ‘acquisition de ce Lenovo après décès du précédent (un Lenovo G580) à l’âge vénérable de 13ans. Pour le moment, si les bases sont réunies pour une utilisation quotidienne standard de bureautique, je constate que la batterie est trèèèès loin de me satisfaire. Celle-ci est défectueuse dès les premiers jours. Après une charge à zéro, impossible de la recharger, et comme c’est une batterie intégrée, impossible d’en recommander juste une nouvelle, il va me falloir ouvrir la bête. Mon vieux Lenovo passé sous Linux me manque…
Bonjour, J’ai eu le même problème assez rapidement après l’achat de cet ordinateur, impossible de le recharger, le témoin de tension ne s’allumait plus. Avant d’envisager de retourner au magasin où je l’avais acheté j’ai fouiné sur le site Lenovo, et j’ai fini par réussir à résoudre le problème. J’ai réalisé différentes manœuvres mais je crois me souvenir que celle qui a été décisive est un appui prolongé sur le bouton de démarrage (comme si ça réalisait un reste du circuit d’alimentation). Je me demande si ça ne pourrait pas venir du logiciel Lenovo avantage, qui gère notamment les options… Read more »
