User Reviews for Lenovo Ideapad Z585 (59-347937) (APU Quad Core A8/4 GB/1 TB/Windows 8) Laptop

Well I can tell you that much from the very instance that this laptop is a steal deal. Value for money for anyone who is going for 35k budget. However the laptop does get a little too hot to handle after 4-5 hours of usage, but comeon which laptop doesnt do that ?? So blaming AMD for it isnt fair, I have been using Intel for years and found the same issue with it too. Its a piece of Hardware squeezed in at such a little place, its bound to get hot. Get a Rotor Fan for it, I am ordering one. Coming to the OS part of it. Yes Microsoft has done it again. Making there Operating Systems more complex as they progresses and they achieved a core competency in how to irritate users. Well if any MS guy is reading this, let me tell you brother, Not all users in this world are born to think the way you think or your programmers think. Not everyone has a need to go through so much icons to find simple functionalities. While this OS wants you to be intuitive and "Over smart", there are users who may just want to be simple functions put up simply. This OS neglects your needs of simplicity and challenges your researcher brain inside you. Well all those users who find Win8 irritating just like me, can get the old look of XP/Win7 back by installing "Classic Shell" but thats just a tweak mind you and its just the looks that you get back through it. Atleast for me it works and I am happy while I just ignore the fact that the OS is still Win8.

Best part:n*Good performance for gaming.n*Awesome sound quality.n*Windows 8 supporting touchpad, very cool, has controls on all the edges.n*Enough USB ports, USB3.0 is really fast.nnWorst part:n*You'll definitely need a cooling pad while gaming.n*No dedicated buttons for brightness controls.n*No caps/num/scroll indicators.nnFinally.....nNo big drawbacks. Value for money. Best buy.

if you have less money and you need good qualitity and quantity of graphics this is the best option, i bought this and fist in web site it has shown that 2.5 gb of graphics later realised that he had given me 4 gb of graphics with 4gb ram and this lappy is simply awesome,but you should take care of no of backround applications,if too many are running it will slow down the ram its better to buy this and add 2gb of ram to this, battery back up is also good

I didn't get this machine from flipkart.....but what I found I wil share with u guysnnPros:nn1.) Extremely fastn2.) Gaming is like living in heaven.n3.)

Windows 8 original copyn6.) usb 3.0 port,preity fast transfer raten8.) 4 MB cache,i don't know how many people really knows the importance of bigger cache,but it makes so much differencen9.) Little bit more than 3 hrs battery backupnnnCons:nn1.) No backlight keyboardn2.) Touchpad could be a bit more better (Its good enough already...but still...human nature..u know)nnI will really recommend this one if u have budget less than 35k and want a full performance machine.....this will not embarrass u...nnEnjoy buyers :)

Do not buy lenovo laptops.nI am cheated on extended warranty and ADP.nI even have written the matter to Lenovo CEO, but in vein. Other reasons arenn1) Third class OKR feature. It has 1 TB hard disk but useless because it has only two partitions. One C drive with 890 GB with OS in it and another D with 25 GB having OKR data. If you repartition it, OKR wont work. Now this brainless Lenovo people want us to keep all our data on C drive. Means once its corrupted you will loose your all data. And if you repartition it you will never be able to get OKR working (as per Lenovo). Whats the fun having such a huge space??nn2) Lenovo don't allow recovery on DVDs. So if you want to create back up of your windows then you need to purchase 16 GB pen drive. And if you want to take OKR back up then you need to have 32 GB pen drive. So even though initial price seems lower be prepared to invest additional 3000 bugs on pen drives.LENOVO DO NOT SHIP ANY RECOVERY DISCS IN ANY CASE.nn3) Customer support is even more third class.
