Laptop packed with power power and more power

4

When i purchased my Lenova ideapad in a deal, i never imagined that it would really make my job easy and will save lot of time for me. Its power packed i7 processer finishes anything in no time. its stunning sound clarity and music quality makes it differ from other bench mark laptops. Its lenovo keypad is ideal and soft. I feel it is one among the best. As it has the high end video card, I love to play Age of empires always. ITs screen clarity is good but the lines in screen is visible at off angles. Another thing i found it odd is the heating of laptop, especially when i play games. Its unbearablly heated if you play more than an hour. Its battary life also not good. It lost for an hour. Though it is not stoping, i need to shutdown it. Other than this problem, its an amazing laptop with power packed on it.

very stable

Outside of the Apple world and Macbooks craze, if there is a laptop that is as stable, then it is the Lenovo laptops. My IdeaPad was a great deal on the lenovo website and shipped to me very quickly - comparable to apple company in every way in that respect. The system is stable. Mine has never crashed, and no programs have ever frozen on me, even while I worked on large files, I had seamless computing. For many PCs, much of the performance is dependent on how good windows is running on the computer. On my ideapad, it seems that I am not being able to experience the gliches and hangups reported by other windows7 or vista users because lenovo runs it so well. The features of the hardware itself are very comfortable. It has a good sized keyboard, which feels good to type on, it has convenient volume buttons and some of the models have thumbprint recognition for added security - no macs have that!! For PC users who want to stick to Windows operating systems, lenovo is the best way to go and the IdeaPad is an economical option.

Amazing laptop for a great deal

5

This laptop has amazing features. But the best I found is the digital dolby speakers. Whenever we have a party I connected the laptop to the speakers and it gives best quality sound. Another feature I like is that it has the HDMI port that gives me easy access to connect my laptop to the tv. We have a lot of movie nights thanks to this laptop. It also has a veriface function, where my face is basically the password. I do not like that option though because at night it is hard to recognize my face, takes ages to load. So i prefer the old school manual password feature. Here is a summary of some pros and cones. Pros: well built, great speakers, overclockable 5730 (over 10000 3Dmarks in '06 after overclock), BEAUTIFUL screen, very well "thought out", not much bloatware and what is there is pretty useful, great button placement, keyboard feel, and mouse pad (especially the trackball mode on mousepad.) AMAZING lack of ghosting using supplied glasses, almost none using leftover theater glasses.  Cons: only 1: resolution. For games in 3D, it's.. fine. You lose half your vertical resolution, but when the screen is in motion you don't really notice (especially on movies) but if your goal is 3D photography, forget it. 1/2 of 768 is completely unusable for any 3D photography work: period.
