Keyboard and trackpad are serviceable. They don't get in my way, but they're nothing amazing.
I love the 16:10 aspect ratio of the screen. It's also a matte finish screen, so no glare. Colors aren't anything amazing, but it's fine.
Speakers are the downside here. The audio quality is poor. But the webcam and microphone are solid. I use this for Zoom a lot and it works well.
There are two RAM slots. I upgraded this to 32 GB of RAM just for the heck of it. It's overkill, but I didn't want this thing to be bottlenecked by RAM.
Battery life is fine. Nothing great. I get a few hours doing standard stuff without using battery saver and with the screen at almost full brightness.
USB-C charging!!!
For this price, I think it's a great buy. My comments above don't make it sound spectacular, but the value of the machine feels greater than the sum of its parts. I just enjoy using it.

I am glad that the RAM is not soldered to the MB.
Do you know if the SSD is upgradable?

Great review! QQ: Lenovo Ideapad touch, same specs would be a better option?

FYI: Costco has a better model for ~ $50.00 more. Better warranty as well.

Is the Lenovo screen 16:10? I love 16:10 so even if the Lenovo is a touchscreen 16:9, I would still go with this one for the 16:10.
