Lenovo IdeaCentre 27ARR9 all-in-one PC 27" FHD Ryzen 5 7535HS 16/512 GB

The 27-inch Full HD display at 1920 × 1080 fits two document windows, or a browser and your email, side by side. Films, series and video calls are comfortable to follow on the large surface even from some distance away from the desk. The screen is not touch-enabled, so you use it with a keyboard and mouse like a regular desktop computer, just without the separate tower and monitor cable.

The AMD Ryzen 5 7535HS is a six-core processor whose clock rises to as much as 4.55 GHz under load. Six cores let you keep several programs open at once: a browser with many tabs, office apps, a video call and music in the background do not get in each other's way. The picture is driven by integrated AMD Radeon Graphics, which is enough for Full HD video, video calls and browsing photos.

The 16 GB of DDR5 memory runs at 4800 MHz and is fitted as a SODIMM module rather than soldered to the board, so it is a standard, replaceable module. 16 GB is a comfortable amount for everyday work, with room for plenty of browser tabs. The 512 GB SSD starts Windows and your programs quickly and holds documents, photos and applications without an immediate need for an extra drive.

Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) is built in and gives a fast, stable connection with a modern router, even when many devices share the home network. That means the PC does not have to sit near the router. Bluetooth 5.2 connects wireless headphones, a speaker, a game controller or a wireless keyboard and mouse, so the desk stays free of cables.

Windows 11 Home is installed, so the PC is ready to use as soon as the initial setup is done. The manufacturer lists the keyboard language as English (ENG). The enclosure colour is Luna Grey, a light grey that suits a living room as well as an office, and the whole unit weighs 7.1 kg. There is no optical drive: software, films and music mostly come from the internet these days.

A home office where you do not want a separate tower and cables on the desk; a family sharing one computer for schoolwork, video calls and films; a small office or reception desk that needs a large screen and a wireless network connection; and anyone who wants a 27-inch display without the hassle of choosing a separate monitor and cables.
