Lenovo Ideapad 1 with AMD Mendocino APUs appears on company’s site

AMD launched the Mendocino mobile processors back in September; however, laptop OEMs other than Acer have yet to offer machines based on this new chip. For those unaware, AMD Mendocino chips are entry-level mobile APUs that use older AMD Zen 2 and RDNA 2 technology but are built upon a refined 6nm manufacturing process optimized for both cost and all-day battery life.

Now, Lenovo has silently added some new IdeaPad 1 laptops to its product specifications reference site that carry these new CPUs (via). The specifications sheet refers to 14-inch and 15-inch models with quad-core Ryzen 5 7520U and Ryzen 3 7320U APUs, as well as dual-core Athlon Gold 7220U and Athlon Silver 7120U processors. These low-cost Mendocino chips all have the Radeon 610M GPU with two CUs operating at 1.9 GHz.

The IdeaPad 1 range starts from the Athlon versions, which comes with only 4GB of soldered LPDDR5-5500 RAM. The Ryzen quad-core variants, however, come with 8 or even 16 GB of RAM. The Ryzen versions receive the faster 512 GB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSDs, while the Athlon models only have 128 GB PCIe 3.0 NVMe SSDs available for storage. An SD card slot allows users to increase their capacity.

The Athlon-powered machines are likely to get 14-inch and 15-inch screens with a 1366 x 768p resolution TN panel. The Ryzen models, on the other hand, will feature both TN and IPS panels with FHD resolution, however, the color gamut of these panels will be low, and the peak brightness will be limited to 250 nits.

The specifications also include WiFi 5 or WiFi 6 with Bluetooth 5.0 / 5.1 connectivity, USB-C 3.2 Gen 1, USB-A 3.2 Gen 1, USB 2.0, HDMI 1.4b, and audio jack connectivity, depending on budget. All models include a 720p webcam with a privacy shutter, although only the priciest Ryzen models also include a fingerprint reader in the power button. The chassis are primarily made of plastic to keep expenses as low as possible, and the 14-inch models weigh 3 lbs while the 15-inch models weigh 3.48 lbs. In video playback mode, the included batteries may last about 14 hours.

Although exact costs in US dollars are not yet available, certain Athlon Gold 7220U versions have Hong Kong dollar prices that would equal to US$490.
