Overall, a great laptop. + Tips for new owners. At ~$300, you can’t go wrong with this laptop.The Processor:I plugged it into my Asus 1080P monitor and it performs just fine (mostly videos). I worried that the Intel 2500 Integrated Graphics couldn’t handle it, but it did just fine. On top of that I plugged in my USB 3.0 to DVI external video card from startech.com into the USB 3.0 port, and it was stable (this method puts a strain on the CPU when going through USB). So I had two monitors coming from this thing, and it did even run warm. The Video feeds struggled a little more than Lenovo Thinkpad T430, but a negligible amount.The Trackpad:This area leaves some things to be desired. The trackpad is not super sharp, but you get used to it quickly. The Left & Right click are somewhat small, so it is best to get used to tapping the trackpad to left-click.The Keyboard:Doesn’t depress as much as I would like to. It has a similar feel to the Microsoft Surface depressing keyboards. But you get used to it. The keyboard isn’t cramped at all.The Touch Screen:Responsive, and precise, just like an ipad.At first, the touch interface would not resume after sleep, I’d tap the screen and nothing would happen. A quick bios driver update from the lenovo website fixed that.The Battery Life:2.5 Hour max. Plug this thing in whenever you can, not a huge drawback, I use this for studying in the library, so there’s always an outlet on the table.Weight:Awesome, you don’t even feel it in the bag.Tips:-Update all of your drivers, specifically the BIOS-Install “start is back”. It’s the best blend of Windows 7 & 8-install “keytweak” to remap certain keys on the keyboard to fit your interface.-turn on right the trackpad’s vertical scroll on the right (even though the resolution is standard, you tend to overshoot the scrolling in pages with the two-finger scroll). You can do this by clicking the the “show hidden icons” triangle in the bottom right and selecting “ELAN Pointing Device” (after updating your drivers for the trackpad of course). -while you’re at it, reverse the scrolling if necessary.
Awesome little computer This is a great little computer for a great price. As soon as I got it, I increased the memory to 8GB and it runs everything great. I run MS Office Suite (Excel, Word, Powerpoint, etc.) and Adobe Photoshop (along with some other Creative Suite programs) and they run great. The battery life is too short though (only getting 2 hours) but I don’t use energy saving mode at all, just the performance mode. I will buy several more of these for my family because this is a great little computer. Love the touch-screen for this price. FYI – it only has one memory slot that I could see, so I took out the 4GB memory stick and added (1) 8GB memory stick to upgrade the memory.
