Lenovo T500 Laptop Review

I’ve been a loyal customer of Dell laptops and buy their workstations, without many questions. However, when I was on the market for a new business style laptop I was shocked to see how Dell was doing. Latitude 6500 is a laptop all bad. Looks cheap and assessments according to the site of Dell notebook computers are cheap in quality too. Since I work a lot on my laptop I can not afford too much downtime due to faulty hardware. I need something that is unreliable and Dell does not give me a warm feeling with its current line of business notebooks. So instead I ordered a company Lenovo T500 laptop.

The purchase process was a bit difficult if I wanted a laptop Lenovo and Windows 7 is a bit slow to update their website. But everything was in place I even found a 10% discount on a special Windows 7 in late fees and I probably saved about $ 600 or more on the new laptop. The new laptop came six days after the order yet, but the site showed a delivery of 13 days.

After unpacking the computer, the only missing element is a restoration of media. Apparently they do not come with the product and you have to ask when ordering the laptop. However, the only option he had stated on the site when I ordered mine had a recovery disc for Windows XP. So I need to quickly review a bit.

The quality of the laptop is usually very good. I think there are still some problems with drivers and Windows 7, because of its brand new I’ll give them a little more pilots. The laptop is black and seems happy as better than a comparable Dell. The plastic is not as cheap as Dell and certainly not a magnet for fingerprints, as the series Latitude 6500. The quality of the screen of the laptop is Lenovo’s excellent. The keyboard is solid, and because I am entering a document I can say is good. I’m still getting used to the location of some buttons, but it’s just a matter of time.

Battery life is approximately 3.5 hours for the Lenovo T500 laptop. I have some problems with the laptop while in standby mode. There’s battery is going down – I guess because of some LED lights on the outside. It’s probably something simple, but since my laptop for a few days I have not studied the issue for now.

My conclusion: I think the Lenovo T500 laptop and since I am able to compare it to a Dell Latitude 6500 in the person I’m glad I bought the laptop Lenovo. It seems much more professional and gives me a great bang for the dollar. There are some small problems and I blame the driver support for Windows 7. I had similar problems with my Dell D820 when Windows Vista was released and the problems were quickly resolved with the new drivers. I expect the same here. Dell will significantly improve their laptops for me to reconsider my choice.
