Lenovo just announced a slew of new laptops today, including several IdeaPads, two 2-in-1s, and a gaming laptop.
IdeaPads
The company’s latest IdeaPad models make up the majority of the laptops revealed today, with options which should appeal to shoppers looking for entry-level notebooks all the way up to ultrabook level laptops.
All of the new IdeaPad models will feature up to a 7th-gen Intel Core i7 processor. To begin with, Lenovo revealed the IdeaPad 320, which will feature entry-level specs and come in either 15.6-inch or 17.3-inch models. The smaller 15.6-inch model has an HD (1366x768) display and an optional touchscreen upgrade for $50, whereas the 17.3-inch model is available in HD+ (1600x900), but with no touch screen.
If you’re looking for a slimmer profile, Lenovo is also offering the IdeaPad 320S, which is available with either a 14-inch or 15.6-inch FHD (1920x1080) IPS display. The 15.6-inch model supports up to an Nvidia GeForce GT940MX mobile GPU for graphics-intensive applications. Finally, the IdeaPad 720S will offer Ultrabook-level looks and specs; it has a 17.3-inch IPS display, up to a GT940MX, supports Thunderbolt via USB Type-C, and will have a variety of metallic paint finishes.

Game Time
Last but not least, Lenovo revealed the specs for the Legion Y920, the company’s latest gaming laptop. The Legion Y920 is an interesting direction for Lenovo, which usually brings entry-level to mid-end gaming laptops to market. What sets the Legion Y920 apart from the company’s typical offerings is the GTX 1070 and the option for an overclockable i7-7820HK processor; this, along with its ample port selection, should make it more than ideal for VR gaming. The Legion Y920 will be equipped with a 17.3-inch FHD (1920x1080) IPS display with G-Sync technology. Additionally, it will feature a full-sized mechanical keyboard with RGB backlighting.
The Lenovo Legion Y920 will be available in early June starting at $2,700.
