Customer Review

On paper, this notebook reads well, very well indeed. The technical components are in the amount of time and really should any user (except for high-end gamers) full justice. Unfortunately, I have yet to make up some weak points on this unit:

Processing:
The housing itself makes a neat, high-quality and stable impression. The folding mechanism, however, excited little. He's so stiff that the bottom with both hands and the lid must be opened. This is not tragic. But still shaking the display when you type it or the notebook is moved noticeably. Anyone traveling on the train, for example, works of which could be a bit annoying.
The keyboard is remarkably well - even if the keypad illumination "hidden" only the states "from" and knows. The touchpad, however, not convinced. Tapping lightly on the pad without it completely push through it rattles and are easy to. Pressing it fully by sounds of "click" as the a computer mouse that there were once about 20 years ago. Annoying.

Display:
The built in this unit "high definition" display is not 1920 but a 1366er display. Due to the screen size, the representation on the verge of pixellated is. Furthermore, this display is quite viewpoint dependent. This effect is already noticeable then if two people sit side by side in front of the notebook or the inclination angle is wrong. Lastly, I feel the color display to be extremely dull and lifeless and also significantly green / bluish.

Soundscape:
Even when the notebook is just there (Web browser with a page like Facebook open) expires and clearly audible fan. So clearly audible that he even from 2 meters away while watching TV is still perceptible. An interesting question is what happens if the device actually has to work a little (image processing in Lightroom, for example). But this question I can not answer.

Other:
Lenovo does well on this machine so that all of the new users once after commissioning unnecessary programs, trials and links on the desktop (or as the finished tile is 8 always called in Windows) must clear out. Unfortunately, a terrible trend that prevails in all notebook vendors alike.

I am curious to see if my girlfriend (who actually heard the machine) buying revokes. Personally, I would have the laptop after 30 minutes Test packed back into the crate back.
