Lenovo N20p Chromebook review

A versatile Chromebook experience for a reasonable price

Design ; WiFi speed ; Versatility ; Trackpad ; Size

Not for business ; Viewing angles ; Speakers ; Hinges to only 300-degrees

The first multi-mode Chromebook impresses with speed, but drops the ball in some areas.

Lenovo n20p review

In recent years Lenovo has sailed past its competitors to become the number one manufacturer of PCs in the world. It's good to see then that Chrome OS still gets some love from the Chinese giants, with the new N series. This model, the N20p, sits at...

The Lenovo N20p is a bit of a disappointment. Visually it’s a very attractive, compact, and smart machine. The touchscreen is useful, and the specs make for a decent experience. This is all ruined by the poor keyboard which proved a constant...

Lenovo N20 review: Lenovo's N20p Chromebook is half a hybrid

With a touch display that bends back 300 degrees, the N20p isn't as much of as shape-changer as its sister Yoga Chromebook.

The Lenovo N20p has good battery life, a touchscreen and a better keyboard than most other Chromebooks. The half-hybrid hinge offers additional flexibility for presenting videos or slideshows.

Many other basic Chromebooks cost less, and the 300-degree hinge here seems needlessly limited, considering how many similar systems fold back a full 360 degrees.

Lenovo's N20p is a long-lasting touchscreen Chromebook with a design on the sharper side of budget, but its semi-hybrid hinge feels like a half measure.

Lenovo N20p Chromebook review

Lenovo injects the Chromebook formula with an 11.6in touchscreen and a super-flexible hinge

In all fairness to the N20p, there aren’t many Chromebooks with genuinely good displays – the only model we’ve tested with a quality IPS display is the HP Chromebook 11, and that isn’t as fast as this machine.

Lenovo n20p review

With the N20p, Lenovo takes the 2-in-1 hybrid laptop / tablet approach and applies it to Chromebooks. A flexible hinge means you can use this touchscreen Chromebook as a kind of tablet. Is it right for you, though? Find out in our Lenovo N20p review.

Lenovo N20p Chromebook review

Lenovo's N20p is portable and functional, but it doesn't offer the performance we expect from a modern Chromebook.

The price and specifications of the N20p position it as a top-tier Chromebook, but it unfortunately fails to stand out from the crowd. Its touchscreen and folding hinge are unique, but pointless given that Chrome OS is not designed with touch in mind.

Review: n20p Chromebook Lenovo

The touchscreen Chrome OS notebook from Lenovo has some appealing hardware on the outside, but the touch display is sub-par, and the internals aren't well-suited to the heavier end of the modern web. Hey, at least it's inexpensive.

10-point touchscreen supports pinch to zoom, two-finger right-click, two-finger scrolling, and other gestures you’d expect. 300-degree “stand mode” is perfect for Netflix, Hulu, and YouTube. Best-in-class keyboard. Solid, well-built chassis ; TIRED

2GB of RAM—Really, Lenovo? TN panel display tarnishes the usefulness of “stand mode” by presenting movies in washed-out color. Pricey compared to other options at these specs

Lenovo N20p Chromebook

With a touch screen and 300-degree hinge, the Lenovo N20p Chromebook lets you tap and flip, but its higher price and performance that's the same as the competition means it's sort of a one-trick pony.

Touch capability and 300-degree hinge. Excellent keyboard. Solid battery life. Good sound quality.

Relatively expensive. Drab gray design.

Conclusion The Lenovo N20p Chromebook has two big things going for it: touch capability and the 300-degree multimode hinge. Aside from those defining features, it's really just one of the crowd, sitting alongside many other offerings that have similar...

Lenovo N20p Chrome Laptop ( 2.16GHz 1333MHz 1MB)
