Both options would have a fee of roughly $100 dollars. My options were to either ship it to Lenovo or bring it to best buy. I have contacted both Lenovo about the problem since it seems to be a manufacturer error and there is no actual sign of damage to the laptop because I never dropped it. After a day the plastic piece kept falling off, I applied little pressure to try and snap it back into place and it broke in half. I kept trying to snap it back into place, but every time I opened the laptop up it would pop out again. The plastic piece next to the hinge was loose and the digitizer was coming away from the lcd. Overall Review: Within 3 month of basic use, mainly just using it for school since I have a desktop I built for everything else, the screen on the bottom left started to come apart.
You have to then restart the laptop.īack light on keyboard does a poor job at lighting the keys up. So if you stop using your laptop and let the screen sleep it won't come back on. Graphics can run games at decent settingsĬons: There is a known issue with the sleep function. CPU-Z benchmarks were 1330 Single Thread and 3391 Multi Thread. Overall Review: Boot time from power on to being in the main screen was only 16 seconds.
Some people might find the features provided by Lenovo's software suite useful, but if not they are easy to uninstall. But there are a lot of Lenovo programs lurking in the background. The initial boot up screen was surprisingly clean of third party bloatware. I downloaded the latest Intel WLAN driver from Lenovo's support page (listed as a critical update) on a different computer, transferred it to the laptop and installed it. Device manager didn't even recognized a wireless device was installed. It started, randomly dropped all wireless networks, then didn't work at all. Just in case this happens to anyone else: When I first turned on the computer the wireless was completely fritzed (minus one star). Overall I'm very happy with the product.Ĭons: 1. The touch screen works flawlessly and the machine looks very nice. Otherwise, it runs very smoothly with the dedicated graphics card.
You'll notice the duo-core/lack of a quad core when first trying to set up the machine and update a gajillion things. Pros: Great product for the price, if you are mainly interested in an everyday laptop that doesn't need significant gaming or graphic capabilities.
