Overall: This is among the best laptops you can buy for the amount of money it is selling for. Don't be put off by the AMD Processor. For an average user this will make no difference. The build quality of the product is what you've come to expect from Lenovo,...

Verdict
The Lenovo Essential G405 (59-415701) may be an extremely affordable notebook but flaunts some features which are absent in many higher priced devices. Such features include 2 USB 3.0 slots, optical drive, sound battery and a slim profile. The main reasons for the company being able to do so are the mediocre configuration and the absence of Windows OS license.
