Chassis, Connectivity, Display Lenovo IdeaPad S540-15IWL-397 (81NE002CFR)

Its Mineral Gray light silver aluminum design gives it an elegant and discreet look.

This Ultrabook benefits from a good connection including 1 USB 3.1 Type-C, Wi-Fi ac Bluetooth 4.2 wireless modules for connections and remote communications, a HDMI video output useful if we plan to connect easily to a TV or monitor for example, an audio port or 2 USB 3.0 (compatible USB 2.0) ensuring transfers made up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 if you connect USB 3.0 devices.

The chiclet keyboard can obviously be backlit which is very practical to distinguish its keys in a dim light.

In addition, the system can be easily and securely identified via the biometric reader via Windows Hello technology.

IPS, the screen offers more accurate colorimetry than average with important vertical and horizontal viewing angles. Its Full HD definition makes it accurate and well suited for displaying High Definition content, especially videos in its 16: 9 format. Covered with a layer of glass, it is brilliant. As a result, it brings out the colors but is more subject to reflections in a bright environment (eg outside) than an anti-reflective tile.

The Lenovo IdeaPad S540-15IWL-397 (81NE002CFR) is a 15-inch compact High Definition notebook designed for everyday mobile use.

It has an SSD storage that, thanks to its 512 GB, competes with hard drives in terms of capacity. As a bonus, it is much faster, more robust, more energy efficient and quieter.

The SSD thus guarantees a daily operation significantly more fluid and responsive than a hard disk, with start / stop and launch applications much faster.

In practice, the SSD shoulder well the heart of this thin and light computer. Consisting of 8 GB of RAM and a quad core processor i7-8565U Whiskey Lake low power, it delivers good overall performance able to satisfy many users.
However, those who intend to perform regular heavy processor resources will benefit from opting for a computer with a non-low-power processor.

In addition, this Ultrabook is not suitable for games and more generally for heavy graphics processing because it ignores a dedicated GPU. Nevertheless, it allows of course to watch photos and videos thanks to the modest benefits of the Intel UHD 620 part housed within the Quad Core i7.

Finally, in terms of autonomy, plan about 8 hours of battery operation in light use for this Ultrabook whose transport is facilitated by compactness and weight control.
