hi

 

looking at buying a laptop in the next couple of weeks had my eye on a lenovo something like a g505 8gb ram model

 

anyone got any constructive pros and cons they care to share?

John Lewis sell it, most people who purchased it don't rate it:

I have the G505 and find it extremely good, i run it alongside a Toshiba of similar standard and find it the better of the two.

But then again i am just a normal user not a techie.

Hi

If I was you I would not bother it not very good

I haven't got a Lenovo laptop but I do have a tablet.

 

Product is good but UK Support is the worst I have ever experienced.

 

They outsource to a third party who struggle with everything.

I do use Dell laptops for 5years now. It works fine for me. Even if I upgrade, I would stick to Dell

hmm i've read elsewhere about wifi drop out, however john lewis customers are reviewing it based on £400, i have seen it for just under £290....

 

i also know someone with the model and has had not one issue so am very unsure..

have a very very old dell inspiron but is single core win xp generation!

 

could you recommend a current dell model? doesn't need a top market cpu or gfx as its just for net and microsoft office sort of programs not COD or owt daft

[Rayman]

Hi Yes

I have tried a number of Lenovo laptops. notebooks. and tablets.

They all are on the slow side. Feel cheap. And don't seem to hold the wifi.

Lucky aim a Qvc customer and have returned them no hassle

 

I have used Dell for many years and you cant go wrong with a Dell

Lenovo laptops are very good in general, I don't see them coming to my repair shop, apart from the ones with cracked screen etc, caused by an accidental damage as such... So yes, they are very good built laptops.

[muttley_the_]

rayman, tablets and notebooks aside, which lenovo laptops have you actually owned?

thanks

 

seem to be a very divided opinion which makes it harder i wasn't expected that!

i've got a lenovo g500 from john lewis for £200 with a 1TB HD. It's brilliant! Was really worried about performance based on the price but thought i'd give it a go - don't regret it for a second!

[neeeeeeeeeek]

Make sure it does not have the same touch pad as the new t440. They are horrible!
