Lenovo IdeaCentre A720 Review

It's a sleek entry into a world of 27-inch all-in-ones that are universally chunky.

We fell in love with the A720 when we took it out of the box. It’s a sleek entry into a world of 27-inch all-in-ones that are universally chunky. Even Apple should be jealous.

The best all-in-one PC: we review the new touchscreen Windows 8 desktops

It's an interesting time to buy an all-in-one PC, that's for sure. The iMac is thinner and more powerful than ever, and Windows machines finally have touchscreens that appeal to an average user. N...

Excellent construction ; Clever hinge mechanism ; Useful capacitive keys

Color temperature is way off ; Iffy speakers

Review: Lenovo IdeaCentre A720

With Windows 8 around the corner, touch-enabled PCs will soon abound. Lenovo's IdeaCentre A720 is one of these forward-looking devices -- the dominant feature here...

Sleek and sensible design. Fully adjustable screen can be laid flat, and the IPS panel offers great viewing angles. All the entertainment necessities are here, including Blu-ray, HDMI in/out and a TV antenna jack. One of the best touchscreen all-in-one...

Display resolution is a bit low for a 27-inch screen. Performance doesn’t quite match the price. Bundled peripherals are uninspired

Lenovo IdeaCentre A720

The Lenovo IdeaCentre A720 is one of the better touch-screen desktops out there, and sports an innovative design. But in terms of performance and features, it lags behind competing desktops.

Large screen. Slim, attractive design. Blu-ray. HDMI-in and HDMI-out.

IR dongle for the remote. Could've gone higher resolution with a 27-inch screen. Middling performance on benchmark tests. Bottom Line: The Lenovo IdeaCentre A720 is

Lenovo IdeaCentre A7 All-in-One Review: Starting to Get The Balance Right

As we mentioned in our recent review of Dell's enterprise-class all-in-one, the OptiPlex 9010 All-in-One, balancing the needs of an all-in-one system and making it feel like a solid alternative to a conventional desktop is a difficult process. By...

Lenovo IdeaCentre A720 Review

It's time to get serious about touch-screen computers here in the summer before Window 8 is formally released - and Lenovo's got your back with a massive all-in-one called the IdeaCentre A720. This 27-inch display-toting AIO works with 1920 x 1080...

The Lenovo IdeaCentre A720 is a home run for Lenovo. You won’t find a better touchscreen PC for this price, not until Windows 8 makes touchscreen PCs a commodity. For now they’re still somewhat of a rarity – and this machine is one of the good ones....

Lenovo IdeaCentre A720 Review

Lenovo has introduced the most exciting all-in-one computer design since HP reinvigorated the market with its TouchSmart series in 2008. The IdeaCentre A720 is a pizza-box design, much like the original TouchSmart; but modern ingredients enabled Lenovo...

27-inch, 10-finger touchscreen; brilliantly designed display mount

Lenovo IdeaCentre A720 Review

Final ThoughtsLenovo has really done a great job with the IdeaCentre A720. Just the design itself is something you really would not expect from Lenovo. If you took all of the Lenovo logos off of the A720 and put it in front of people I don't think...

Sleek and stylish design, – 27inch touchscreen display, – Display can be made flat, – TV tuner and HDMI in

Could have had a larger resolution on the 27inch display, – Speakers are not the best

Lenovo IdeaCentre A720 Review

Power delivered in an unconventional design.

Impressive performance, sleek design, large selection of games and apps, sturdy build quality

Average keyboard and mouse, port locations could have been better, screen slightly too glossy

The mouse is also rather boring and felt very cheap in my hands compared to the overall grandeur of the A720. It’s almost as if Lenovo found the lease expensive mouse they could find and stamped their logo across the top. What’s particularly confusing...
