Why this midrange Lenovo laptop is the one I recommend to most people
Lenovo's IdeaPad Slim 3i offers great value on a budget, with a full-size keyboard, solid port selection, and an affordable price tag.
However, the $500-$999 price range is increasingly crowded with some impressive laptops, making competition fierce and forcing comparisons across manufacturers (while highlighting design or feature flaws). The card reader is an interesting choice here, since this laptop isn't exactly primed for working with large video files, but it does afford some additional use cases. The screen exhibits some effects you might see on similarly priced LCDs, like the dimming and brightening that occurs when swapping windows, or when going from an app in dark mode to one that's much brighter, like a Google Doc, for example.
