This is a graded product. A1 products are "as new" but have been box opened. All A1 products will be fully bubble-wrapped for transportation.
In this test we use 100% on the CPU cores, monitoring their frequencies and chip temperature. The first column shows a computer’s reaction to a short load (2-10 seconds), the second column simulates a serious task (between 15 and 30 seconds), and the third column is a good indicator of how good the laptop is for long loads such as video rendering. In the illustration below you can see how the display performs from a uniformity perspective. In other words, the leakage of light from the light source. Our “Design and Gaming” profile delivers optimal color temperature (6500K) at 140 cd/m2 luminance and sRGB gamma mode. The measured maximum brightness of 256 nits in the middle of the screen and 229 nits as an average for the whole area, with a maximum deviation of 18%. The Correlated Color Temperature on a white screen is 5780K – warmer than the optimal for the sRGB standard of 6500K, which is not bad. Lenovo V15 Gen 2 doesn’t use PWM for brightness adjustment. This makes it comfortable for long periods of work in this aspect.

The bottom panel houses two speaker cutouts, as well as a ventilation grill. You can see parts of the fan peaking through the vent. Hot air, respectively, is being exhausted from a slit in between the lid and the base. Please be aware that the RAM in this unit has been upgraded in-house by our team of experts. As a result of this, the original box seal may be broken. Traditionally, this series brings a huge amount of cost-cutting with itself. Through the years, we’ve seen plastic builds, slow hardware, and unattractive displays. However, there is something that tells us this year will be different. While there is an IPS 1080p display option, we weren’t able to find one in our region, so we had to settle for a 1080p TN panel. If you have a choice, go for the IPS panel.
Still, we’ve included other color spaces like the famous DCI-P3 standard used by movie studios, as well as the digital UHD Rec.2020 standard. Rec.2020, however, is still a thing of the future and it’s difficult for today’s displays to cover that well. We’ve also included the so-called Michael Pointer gamut, or Pointer’s gamut, which represents the colors that naturally occur around us every day. One of the reasons for the good battery life is the efficiency. The AMD processors this laptop comes with are really lenient on the battery. At the same time, they are quite powerful. The fact that you can pair this notebook with an 8-core/16-thread CPU is simply mindblowing. On the bright side, the inside ports offer one SODIMM slot for memory expansion, an M.2 PCIe x4 slot for storage, and a 2.5-inch SATA drive bay. We estimate Windows 11 support will end in October 2031. However, this laptop may be compatible with a future version of Windows that gets support beyond this date
The next figure shows how well the display is able to reproduce really dark parts of an image, which is essential when watching movies or playing games in low ambient light. Unsurprisingly, the entire device is built out of plastic. It has a fabric-like texture pattern on both the lid and the base. Interestingly, they are both fairly resistant to flex, and significantly less bendy than the Vostro 15 3510, which we’ve tested recently. Lenovo V15 Gen 2 is equipped with a Full HD TN panel with a model number Innolux N156HGA-EA3 (LEN9051). Its diagonal is 15.6″ (39.62 cm), and the resolution is 1920 х 1080 pixels. The screen ratio is 16:9, and we are looking at a pixel density of – 142 ppi, and a pitch of 0.18 х 0.18 mm. The screen turns into Retina when viewed at distance equal to or greater than 60cm (24″) (from this distance one’s eye stops differentiating the separate pixels, and it is normal for looking at a laptop). We also didn’t expect the touchpad to be this good. Well, it is not the best out there, but it’s clearly one of the best in its class. Today, we ask the age-old question – how cheap is too cheap? There is a very thin line between cheap and affordable, and we’re going to see if the Lenovo V15 Gen 2 is going to provide the value it should.
Great Deal
