Lenovo 24" Review

The Lenovo AIO 24 is a basic, space-saving computer for light tasks. Its Intel N100 chip and 8GB of RAM are slow, but it's easy to set up. Only worth it if a clean desk is your top priority over performance.

The Lenovo AIO 24 is a simple, space-saving computer for basic tasks. It's an all-in-one with a decent 24-inch screen, a small Intel N100 processor, 8GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD. Think of it as a tidy web machine for emails, documents, and video calls.

Performance is exactly what you'd expect from a low-power Intel N100 chip. It's fine for web browsing, Office apps, and streaming video. Our database puts its CPU performance in the 4th percentile, so it's near the bottom of the pack for raw speed. The integrated Intel UHD graphics land in the 24th percentile, meaning don't even think about gaming. The SSD helps it feel snappy for booting and opening programs, but the 8GB of RAM is a real bottleneck for multitasking.

At around $400, it's priced for its simplicity, not its power. You're paying for the convenience of an all-in-one form factor with a built-in screen. For the same money, you could get a more powerful mini PC or laptop, but you'd lose the integrated display. It's a fair deal if your number one priority is saving desk space and you only do light work.

Compared to other all-in-ones, it's on the very basic end. It's not competing with the HP or Dell towers listed—those are gaming beasts. A closer competitor might be an older Apple iMac or a Chromebase, but this runs full Windows 11. The trade-off is clear: you get a cleaner desk, but you sacrifice a ton of performance and upgradeability compared to a traditional desktop tower at this price.

Skip this if you need speed for multitasking, photo editing, or any kind of creative work. The CPU and RAM are major bottlenecks. Also, avoid it if you ever want to use the nice screen with a more powerful computer later—the lack of HDMI-in makes that impossible.

Buy this if you need the absolute simplest, most compact computer for light web use, and you never want to think about cables or separate components. It's ideal for a secondary home office, a student's dorm desk, or a family room for casual browsing.
