Do not like the TouchPad

Date:March 23, 2013
Pros: Battery, Input/Output compatibility, Weight, Processor, Durability, Software compatibility, Wireless card, Screen size, Storage, Display resolution, Display performance
Cons: Video card, Memory, Bluetooth, Keyboard/peripherals, Included Software, touchpad
"I bought recently. Not gonna lie, this is a great notebook for my work, but I did not like the TouchPad. The scroll does not work correctly, I have to swipe million times for him to accept the command. The TouchPad always hangs. I was forced to use a mouse not to use the TouchPad, but it's not always that I can use the Mouse.
The Notebook is good, but I think we should improve in the question TouchPad. Not to mention that Windows 8 is full of functions with motions of the TouchPad, which makes further use.

Not happy with this purchase

Date:February 27, 2013
Pros: Weight, Processor, Storage
Cons: Battery, Keyboard/peripherals, Included Software, Screen size, camera
"Lenovo G480-IT's an expensive machine with a substandard look. the touchpad is horrible. that is the part i find most difficult to accept since it has a key function in using any laptop. the good side is that it is a light weight laptop and so far the speed is good too."

Great laptop

Date:February 15, 2013
Pros: Battery, Weight, Processor, Support, Included software, Memory, Bluetooth, Video card, Keyboard/peripherals, Build Quality, Storage, Display resolution, Display performance
"I got this laptop a month ago and have been very impressed with it, from the computing to the keyboard. For example, if you play games on your laptop this will be for you. I had a Toshiba satellite and i got around 15 fps, 20 if i was lucky. on this machine with the graphics set to the highest, i get around 35. with the graphics set to the lowest i get around 120-140 fps. THAT is power! Intel i5 and 6 gb of ram!"

Best Buy, Worth with Money

Date:January 27, 2013
Pros: Input/Output compatibility, Warranty, Processor, Support, Included software, Software compatibility, Memory, Video card, Wireless card, Keyboard/peripherals, Screen size, Storage, Display performance
Cons: Display resolution, Bluetooth, Build Quality
"Smart Fan Noise Control works perfectly (5 star here), keyboard very comfortable and don't have clicky sound (5 star here), price is worthy with spec (5 star) and i don't like the screen because i'm notice with the vertical line (i think pixelation) and it's not crispy clear (3 star).
But my full review is, it's better with the price and i'm happy with this model."

Very Trendy product

"Affordable, trendy, with battery life that is good enough for my needs, light and very portable.
However, I could not have an output both on the monitor and a projector.

good for the price

Date:November 28, 2012
"I got a really good deal on this, about $400, and it was worth that. It's a nice size, very portable, battery lasts about 3 hours for me, which is adequate. It didn't come with much, but it was cheap for a laptop. The keyboard is good, the picture quality is fine for what I do (mostly word processing and surfing the internet). My only complaints are the screen is too glossy, so it glares if it's not at the right angle, and the touchpad is WAY too sensitive. I have to turn it off when I'm typing, or I end up with my cursur jumping all over the place. Fortunately, it's really easy to turn the touch pad on and off (Fn,F6), so it's not too big a deal."
