Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought it because of the great screen resolution and price. Had it for a little over a month and the hard drive crashed. Total nightmare. Swapped out to an HP, never been happier

Battery failed 2 weeks after purchase. Best Buy would not replace just the battery and did not have a comparable replacement for the laptop

The system runs extremely slow. There is a 3-4 second delay when typing. I would not recommend this laptop.

The G70 is the best entry level 17 inch laptop on the market. Exceptional value.

I had hp and asus with the same specs before i bought this one and lenovo is the best of them all and a better price, its build realy good not flemzy like asus and the sound is really good and loud unlike hp, and doesnt over heat or the fan doesnt sound like a vacuum like hp does, this is a really fast computer, i had hp with i5 intel and this one is alot faster and you can easly upgrade the hard drive and memory with out taking the hole computer apart like asus and hp just 2 screws on the bottom plate is all, and it starts up alot faster than my asus did and has better tech support and updates are easy on this laptop than the other brands. plus this laptop has bluetooth build in and comes with Cyberlink PowerDVD, CyberLink Power2Go and more software than the other brands, the hp and asus didnt have bluetooth and it would cost you 40 or 50 dollars more to get that on hp and asus they dont have no cd burning software or dvd player software, this is a really good price on this lenovo why pay more and get less on other brands

Decent basic laptop for the price. I had an Asus that I used for about 5 years and decided to get another Asus since I had such good luck with the previous one. Cost about $500. After only a year, just after the warranty expired, the hard drive went. Took it to Geek squad they said it would be about $300 to fix. I said for that price I could buy a cheap laptop. I actually like this Lenovo better than the more expensive Asus. I use it for light gaming, online school, youtube, and other basic uses.

Honestly, I would not buy one of these for myself, but I got this for my parents who are aging and bigger screen + native lower screen resolution just pairs up super nice for them. They honestly cant see them pixels nor would they care. You should not either, as long as it isn't 768 vertical. Build is great for an entry level, certainly better than Dell or HP, or at least lenovo makes it look nicer than theirs. Broadwell i3 is all one would ever need for basic computing, and my parent's are thoroughly satisfied (they just need that bigger screen). Haven't had long enough to comment on longevity, but lenovos do tend to die with critical issues more than usual. Crossing fingers.

Good for basic, everyday computing. Nice screen, nice keyboard. No scroll feature on the mouse-pad. Overall not bad.

Would have got a 5 except for I do wish resolution was a bit better. Visually, it could be a bit crisper. Also I would have loved a lighted key board. Minor grievances for all it's plus factors. Especially fantastic price being number one. I do basic computing. Emails, shopping, face book, web surfing, you tube, ebay-ing and so on.... This fits my needs perfectly and at such a bargain for under $300. I purchased it almost 2 weeks ago for 313.00 and saw today was lowered to 297.00. Just got off the phone w/ bb for a price match. Very cool indeed! My old Toshiba satellite was acting up and could tell it's time was drawing near. I wanted to get a new one before it died so I could get what I needed off of it first. I am extremely pleased with it from ample size, yet light weight, to ease of use, speed and every thing in between. I would definitely recommend unless your a big time gamer. I showed it to one of my computer savvy, big time player coworkers and he said no way would it work for him. For me however... almost perfect. With this price, I figure if I feel I want to upgrade even a year or two from now, I won't feel burned at all. I especially like I can add more RAM easily if needed. That is one of the things my co-worker really did like. He is already hooking me up . Honestly, at this point though, I really don't think I need it but I'll take it. A definite Best Buy! BTW the price match call customer service was superb and took less then 3 minutes.

Can be used both as a laptop or desktop because of the big screen.

I purchased this computer mainly for school, and as a struggling college student I got it at a great price! Coming from a Macbook, this was surprisingly easy to figure out how to use, and pretty much just as fast. The screen could be just a tad brighter, but that's really just if I'm LOOKING to find something to complain about. I was also happy to find that it does handle some basic games, including World of Warcraft and Wild Star Online. Great buy!!

Good basic laptop that meets all my needs. More than enough for web surfing, spotify, youtube and netflix. Massive screen is awesome too.

I've gone through so many laptops over the last few years. For a reasonably priced laptop, this was a great choice for me. I am a real estate appraiser, and working on my reports on this screen has been great. I upgraded the ram from the installed 4gb to 16gb and the internet just flys. Overally, I'm very happy!

The first day of use the computer locked the bottom third of the screen when I went online to watch a youtube video. The video ran in the top 2/3 of screen but the bottom third of screen locked and I was not able to use the mouse to get to start button. Despite several restarts, the problem returned consistently every time I went to the internet. I took the laptop back to the store and Best Buy said it was a hardware issue. Their customer service was very good and gave me a replacement unit of the same model no questions asked. The first day of using the replacement unit, the built in mouse pad stopped working. I returned the product and got my money back. This model seems to be a dud! I recommend to avoid it.

Its good and big screen comfortable to use low wight

This computer has great graphics, a clear large screen, and excellent technical support. However, the only cons I can think of is the fact that it crashes periodically, and also when I restart the computer and the mouse does not work. I have to go into the settings and reenable the mouse via keyboard controls

I bought this laptop because it was on sale. Great computer for the price.

Exactly what was needed, checks off all the boxes and performs well.

Large screen with clear colors and picture. Speed is ok. Works great for my home office.

bought this for my boss to use since he is going to be occasionally working from home. I like the one key restore for when he messes it up. I can reload it just as it was when I gave it to him. Now if I could only get him to save his files to the server like he is supposed to!
