Make sense of the details

Choosing the Lenovo W540

The 39.6 cm (15.6") display is specified at 1920 x 1080 pixels. Consider these together: a larger screen provides more physical space, while resolution determines the number of pixels available. Neither specification establishes brightness, colour accuracy or motion quality.

This configuration lists 8 GB of memory and 500 GB of storage. Memory supports active applications; storage holds software and files. Check upgradeability separately, because a capacity figure does not establish whether either component can be replaced.

Compare the specification with your intended use and read the original reviews for performance, comfort, reliability and other qualities that a specification sheet cannot establish.

Before choosing this laptop

  • Write down required apps, external displays and accessories.
  • Check operating-system support and upgrade policy for the planned ownership period.
  • Compare keyboard, webcam, screen finish and ports in person where possible.
  • Verify each USB-C port for charging, display and data functions.
