Lenovo IdeaPad S940: Keyboard and Trackpad

This is a snippet taken from the full review of the IdeaPad S940. You can read the entire review here.


Across Lenovo’s product range, you’ll find various different keyboards all with different levels of travel. The IdeaPad S940 has one of the more shallow keyboards the company has to offer, but it still makes for a nice typing experience. You still get satisfying keyboard clicks plus a decent amount of travel, so much so that it’s nowhere near as flat as something like a MacBook keyboard.

Unlike a MacBook, however, the S940 has somewhat of a small trackpad. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a good trackpad since it’s covered in smooth glass and packs Precision drivers. But due to its size, it can become unpleasant to use. I prefer a mouse in this case because of how crammed I feel using it, but if you’re holding the laptop on your lap, the trackpad should be okay.
