Excellent looking laptop
By Master J
Buying a new laptop is a big decision whose results could end up being with you for years. I took far too long analysing over the merits and features of each but in the end saw this in a shop, the last one and reduced by a good amount and just bought it. I like it so much I would probably have bought it or the i5 model at the original price anyway.When looking for laptops I found it very hard to find the difference between some of Lenovo's range, particularly the B570, G570 and this, the V570. The former two are near identical apart from one has a matte lit and one has an aluminium wrist rest. The V570 seems more business oriented and comes with windows 7 professional and a fingerprint reader, but I find it is fine for personal use, it also costs more. The thing that makes this laptop stand out and is the best reason to buy it are its looks. To me it looks great as it has an aluminium lid and wrist rest, the metal's colour isn't as bright as a MacBook but closer to a gun-metal look and has a blue tinge under certain lights. The metal feels great to touch and the keys curve slightly so feel great to type on. The touch pad is matte with little bumps and a similar colour to the aluminium. You are going to have your laptop around the house a will look at it every day so getting one you like the look of is an important of a feature as extra RAM of hard disc space (luckily I realized this in time).This laptop has all the essential ports you would expect with the 4 USBs (one also eSATA) in 3 corners of the laptop and the SD reader on the front lip. It also has a switch which can stop it connecting to Wi-Fi. The sound is good and produce a clear sound that isn't tinny can go quite loud; I managed to get it up to 80 decibels before I worried about the neighbours hearing. The screen is sharp and has a good range of brightnesses to choose from using the keyboard short-cuts. You can tilt it 45 degrees from vertical and it is easy to view from even wide angles with minimal reflection. It comes with a 0.3 Megapixel camera which I was hesitant about buying as other models have 2Mp. The truth is if you only use the cam for web conversations you won't notice the difference as it is unlikely you will have at upload speed large enough to stream a 2Mp video. As this has the new Intel sandy bridge CPU, the battery life is also impressive.Most Laptops these days come with 'bloat ware' from the manufacturer and while Lenovo have included some software it actually gives bloat ware a good name. It comes with a boot optimizer that claims to give this laptop faster boots and most times the laptop manages to start-up in less than 50 seconds. It also has a battery manager than will allow you to change settings such as how many minutes of inactivity before the screen and hard-drive turn off as well as stopping the battery charging when its plugged in so it lasts longer. It also has software which will turn off the hard-drive if the laptop feels a shock.This laptop is ideal if you want a good value stylish metallic laptop.
