    I was excited to get this laptop because the price was fantastic for the configuration.

    I have had it for two weeks and so far I really like it. However, just one thing about it is kind of annoying: 1. The volume of the speakers is very very low. I’d go as far as saying it is not usable. Volume is fine with headphones or connected to my wireless speakers.

    But its got lots of pros: Set up was a breeze, nice screen, super light, fast,doesn’t get hot at all.

    I have not been with it unplugged yet so can’t speak for the battery life.
    I do not believe there is a perfect laptop for $500, so considering the configuration, I think I chose well.

    I did a lot of research to find the best value at 450-500$ and I’ve narrowed my search down to this laptop.
    quick processor, good amount of ram, good size screen.
    We didn’t get charged tax on this purchase, which was a pleasant surprise!
    I like the design that lenovo used on this laptop, It’s feels very strong and looks nice as well.
    The performance is great for running everyday applications and multi-tasking but gaming is horrendous on this thing, no big deal though… It’s a laptop.
    There was lots of boatware to uninstall initially, more than I’m used to seeing.
    The face recognition software is useless so don’t let that feature bring you closer to this laptop.
    The only downside that I’ve found is that I can’t permanently disable the touch pad through the bios or even with the FN keys.
    The only reason I gave the product 4/5 stars is because I’m nit picky.
    Everything else is great!

    I purchased this laptop based on the specs alone, never having seen a Lenovo in person. Lenovo purchased IBM’s PC division a few years ago, so I had some faith in the brand.

    I was positively floored with the quality of this laptop – it is a very, very nice unit. I have purchased several for clients and one for my girlfriend – that’s how nice this Lenovo laptop is.
