Pros: Everything!!! Beautiful full sized keyboard. Mouse pad and buttons. Clear screen. Design. Dual core processor. motherboard bus speed. Price!
Cons: Almost none. Perhaps the should make the lid a little more solid with a lock.
Overall Review: I have owned an i7 ideapad y570p, I sold it because I didn't want to carry with me an $800 computer and it didn't have an ectended keyboard neither. I bought an Acer with a AMD c-50 processor for $248 at fry's, but so slow that I had to return it. I also had this miserable HP laptops with the loosen keys and besides they overheat, the battery doesn't last over 2.5 hrs and the mouse buttons are too hard. When I found this lenovo for wit a full keyboard for $268 at fry's, I didn't even think twice. I has all the features and enough power you would need and its the best among all in this price range. Even $350 is worth paying. I know that I will kee this beauty for at least 5 years and I won't have to worry if it breaks or someone steals it. By the way this are the windows index scores: Processor: 5.9 (almost as good as an i3 m330 [6.2]) Memory: 5.5 (I put 2 GB more and I got 7.5! Wow!) Video Windows: 5.1 (awesome for integrated graphics) Video @ Games: 5.5 (enough to play most gam
Pros: Good Price. B940 sandy bridge. Best keyboard in this class
Cons: The lid (monitor) seesaws (wiggles back and forth) even when on a stable desktop. The hinges feel solid, this seems to occur because the plastic lid and base are so thin.
Overall Review: I returned this because of the monitor seesaw issue. It was irritating at best, but if you travel, the motion of a car/airplane etc would cause the monitor to sway alot. Disappointing, because otherwise a solid contender in this price range.
Pros: See the link to more about this laptop: in google search Lenevo G570 Hinge problem - will get into their forum

Overall Review: Talked to Customer care - horrible - as if they say it is our problem that we have purchased this laptop - they are not going to help to fix any issues. But in phone automatic voice says - we provide high quality services to our customer -
Pros: Fair laptop for reasonable price
Cons: I purchased 9/21/2011 took out of box to setup for customer on 6/25/2012 graphics card bad lenovo would not warranty the unit until I purchased a extended warranty because the factory warranty was out!
Pros: nice price
Cons: wireless not working. Christmas gift that doesnt work - not ideal. Hopefully Newegg or Lenovo makes it right.
Pros: Purchased for High School student. Running great. Solid price performance. All aspects webcam, wireless networking, etc easy to use
Cons: None
Pros: I own the G550 Lenovo laptop with similar specs and got it for the 399 price. This laptop has been nothing but a workhorse for me and given me no problems whatsoever. I wish I had this machine... for the same price. Pros: Great keyboard... easy to type and good resistance to the keys. The screen is adequate and reasonably bright After removing the bloatware you are good to go. The wireless card may be an issue if you are planning to run Linux on this laptop however I was able to install my driver up until Kernel 2.6+. Look into it before you buy this machine. It is a sturdy build with all the right features.
Cons: None for the price.
Overall Review: My next laptop is going to be a Lenovo or an ASUS
Pros: Well, I've had this computer for about two weeks now. I've been putting it through it's normal paces. I'm an audio engineer and I've been mixing sessions on it for the past two weeks, some projects with upwards of 50+ tracks with 30+ VSP effects - the CPU usuage has never been over 25%. I'm also a casual gamer and installed Steam on it. Runs TF2, Portal 2, and Bastion all very, very well despite Intel 3000 integrated graphics. I don't why other people are getting sub-2 hour battery times. I always get at least 4 hours, with wi-fi on, most of time it's closer to 5 hours. Keyboard is a dream to type on.
Cons: MAJOR bloatware. Took me nearly an hour just uninstall all the junk. Other than that I have absolutely no complaints. At this price range with these features, this thing's a steal.
Overall Review: As long as you don't have any unrealistic expectations this computer is absolutely solid for the price. Get it.
