 LENOVO IdeaPad G550 Laptop August 30, 2010
Ted Cramer (North Carolina - USA)

Purchased this for a college student and set it up and configured this with extra features and applications. The laptop despite previous previews of poor sound quality and people with lazy hands that touched the mouse pad the laptop is great. It is fast and comes with the right amount of memory from the start. Sound quality is good and loud too. I wouldn't hesitate to buy or recommend this to friends, family, and clients as a good buy for the money and quality laptop. I plan to buy a few more of these. Lenovo did a good job on this one. It is made in China but everything is made out of USA anymore thses days.
 Quality hardware for a cheap price August 27, 2010

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!
Great Laptop for the price August 23, 2010
Rob
Great deal, Under $500. The case is the only problem for me, the materials are not the traditional options for laptops, it feels like plastic or something like that but for $449 is ok, actually, I wasn't expecting something different based on the price. Performance perfect, no problem at all. If you want a low cost laptop, with great hardware performance and average appearance this is a very good option...
Great and Afforadle. August 20, 2010

I have had this laptop two days and i just love it. I am so happy with this purchase. The only downside is it doesn't have a SD slot but that can be worked around.
Awesome laptop August 10, 2010

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.
