Surprising power and sturdy build from a mid-range laptop.

Lenovo's Ideapad 500 series is intended as an upper-mid-range alternative to its higher-end ThinkPads and Yogas, bringing a traditional clamshell notebook design and decent performance to get through a day's work.
I have here the new Ideapad 530S, a 15-inch laptop that has a lot going for it. Performance is above average, the aluminum body is built well, and it's respectably thin without sacrificing ports. Sure, there are some downsides as a tradeoff for the price; let's take a look at whether or not they're outweighed by the upsides and whether or not the Ideapad 530S is worth your money.
