No loopholes Jul 30, 2010

I've had this laptop for a year, no major problems. I got the onsite warranty service for 3 years. Just last week, a couple of my keyboard keys broke, NO QUESTIONS ASKED they came to my house and gave me a brand new keyboard. I've never had this much success with a company ever. Dell was a horrible company at servicing my laptop.
The laptop itself runs great, Windows 7 64 bit is a great OS, the speakers are loud enough, the keys are responsive, and it's an overall great, durable, well-constructed laptop.

Excellent Dec 20, 2010
By TrenT This is a Solid Machine. Had Mine for 8 Months and it still runs like new. The Slidebar feature is pretty cool too. Really good on battery life too. Recommended Purchase. Great Value!

Lenovo Y-550 review Apr 26, 2010
By Paulo P. Silva Prado

I am very happy with my purchase, this laptop PC is very fast, the battery lasts as long as advertised, the LED display is very bright and yet an energy saver. The keyboard honors the IBM legacy, it is very comfortable to use. The sound of the built in speakers is crystal clear. All in all I highly recommend this product.
The y550 was a waste of my money Mar 08, 2012
By Jay I've had this laptop for awhile now, and I have to say it is mostly useless.
First off here is what is wrong with the design: Lid does not open back far enough. Lid can not be opened with one hand. Having esata/usb/ethernet split between both sides of the laptop makes for an uncomfortable experience. Hardware crippled by lenovo --- where's the core2 virtualization tech? Maybe it's just me but the wireless is weak also, much MUCH better off getting a usb adapter.
Secondly it's entire life my machine has been plagued by spooky crashes and lockups from myriad causes. In general this computer has never been stable enough for me to trust it for any other use but web browsing and the ilk.
I still like the thinkpads (this ideapad sucks all around though), but this is my last lenovo for no other reason then they sell crippled hardware - not cool, I paid for the cpu let me use it.

Horrible and a big waste of money Jun 27, 2010
By A. Khan

This is one of the most horrible laptops I have ever used/seen. I still prefer to use my 5 year old HP Laptop over this one.
- The touchpad is sooooo frustrating. It sometimes gets too sensitive and sometime would not respond. I have tried different settings but to no avail. - What can I say about the boot time. I power it up and can go around for few minutes and it wouldn't boot up completely when I return. - The keyboard layout is weird. You would find keys that you would hardly use easier to reach. But the ones you need always, are hard to find. - The keys are very flimsy.
I wish could return this. Never buy it, it's a BIG WASTE OF MONEY.
