Background & Identification
Despite being the world’s largest personal computer vendor, Lenovo’s lineup of laptops is relatively simple. At the most basic level, Lenovo’s laptops can be categorized in five major lines: the ThinkPad and ThinkBook for business use, the IdeaPad and Yoga for consumer grade computing, and the Legion line for gaming. There are then subdivisions and combinations within these lines, some examples being the ThinkPad X1 Carbon or the ThinkPad X1 Yoga.
The ThinkPad line is composed of 4 major categories, all providing more powerful computing with different niche focuses. The X series provides an emphasis on portability, with lightweight laptops that don’t sacrifice specifications. Within the X series is the X1 Carbon, the X1 Extreme, and X1 Yoga. The T series is Lenovo’s flagship within the ThinkPad brand. The P series laptops are equipped with more graphics processing power for computing intensive work. Lastly, the A series provides a similar business capable laptop at a budget price.
The IdeaPad line is a more consumer-oriented departure from the ThinkPad laptops. They featured glossy screens and the absence of the ‘Trackpoint’ found on previous ThinkPad models. They come in 5 major classes: the 700 series, 500 series, 300 series, 100 series, and S series, with performance and price point decreasing down the list. The IdeaPad line also formerly included some Yoga models, but Yoga became its own brand to encompass 2-in-1 laptops with a more stylish and functionality focused design.
The most often replaced Lenovo Laptop parts include the battery, screen, screws, and keyboard.
