LENOVO S410 review, disappointment, slow, never an ideapad

Review on Lenovo S410 laptop.


The worst laptop that I have encountered  in my life. NEVER BUY A LENOVO BRAND LAPTOP.
This post on my review on the Lenovo, s410 “ideapad” which is what they called it, but however it Is never going to be an idea to buy it .




So my laptop that I have been using currently, was heavy and there is something wrong with the screen. probably is because that I had used to dropped it . hence , I got no choice to get a new laptop since I need it for my school examination.



I thought Lenovo was a really good brand because many of my classmates , friends are all using Lenovo brand. Hence I decided to get a Lenovo laptop since it is affordable and the design was pretty awesome too.
I got this ideapad Lenovo S410 , it was 1.8 kg running on an i5 processor.  ( really light and nice for carrying around if you are travelling.) and the design is really nice. Hence I bought it .


I am a student currently studying in one of the polytechnic in Singapore and my school requires laptop in everyday life .
Getting a light laptop is very important since my house is far away from my school and I need to travel around.


Bought it and  came out to be a huge disappointment to me. The laptop was really freaking hell slow and it just keep on “hang” and “jam”. All if this is happening to a new laptop, there must be something really wrong.
Can you imaging ? during one of my school examination , it “hangs” ? I was like WTF ? people already starting on their exam and you are playing this with me ? are you seriously kidding me?
Not only does my school examination client got “jam “ at the start of the exam but it also got “jam “ when I am submitting the paper. “HOLLY CRAPS”. I  bought a freaking lousy fake china product( I mean it is not fake but completely real. it looks and performs so fake like a china phone.  .



The design was nice ? hell no !!! my laptop was even built unevenly . here are some of the pictures that you can see and tell obviously.
 
the gaps between the right side of the computer is more further away from each other. 
                                             
                                         
and the gaps between the left side is more closer-up 



Not even after two days I bought the laptop, the keyboard has got problem . and I need to get it for repair .
The battery stated that it can last for about up to 5 hours and let me tell you, that is a piece of fucking shit. They just wanted to lie to the customer for purchasing it . it's never going to last up to 5 hours . at most 2.5 ? ! dafaq ? I asked the manager of the repairing center why my laptop battery can only last to 2.5 ?
He replied “ this is normal, your laptop battery is fine, the brochure puts 5 hours is when you are not running anything and probably on the sleeping mode .” ( I should have recorded it down everything to use it as a proof , how stupid I am ).




Hey ! if this is the truth , why didn’t you ! Lenovo stated that also on the brochure ? why are you trying  to lied to your pitiful customer ?
And worse still  when you got your laptop for repairing , and there is always a limitation that they could do . they will answer you “ THIS IS THE ONLY THING WE CAN DO”  and not helping you to solve the problem .

There was four problem that stated on the paper, but however, the only things they did was to help me changing a new keyboard, that’s it . =_= .
When I got back my computer , it still hangs and was freaking hell slow. ( then what is the points of repairing ?) hellooo???
So I don’t understand what does it meant by an “IDEAPAD”?
I asked them for a refund or an exchange on because the laptop was built so unevenly and guess what's their reply ?
“EVERY LAPTOPS OF THIS DESIGN ARE BUILT LIKE THIS ?, THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO .”
I was like what the fuck? Are you guys trying to push the blame ? are you sure every laptop of this design are built like these? All you guys do is to psycho or convince your customer .
They love to cover the problem . WOW, unbelievable , LENOVO a big brand , and this is the best they can do . by answering or giving you excuses .
And no joke, I think I am not the only person that is having problem with this product. I am sure there are people who are also experiencing the same problem as me,  is just that I am so unlucky .
I probably should have recorded how the chat has go with the manager and the services staff on the phone.
All their favourite phrases are
 “ this is the only thing we can do .”
“All the product are built like that . “

let's not compare lenovo with apple brands, as we know apple is the number 1 leading in the world with its laptops, computer and everything. 

lets just compare it with a simple normal brand acer, by just looking at how the repairing centre looks like , you will know which product you should buy . 
Lenovo service center is inside the building of bukit timah shopping center ,
and for people who are really living in the east , the place is so hard to find. 


and this is the service repairing centre of acer, isn't it look more professional ?
and trust me , when you got your computer for repairing, there are nice sofa and nice air-conditional for you to sit around , plus the waiting time is very fast because i personally went to repair one of my acer computer before.




and by just comparing a simple repairing center environment, this shows how a company cares for their uses .
if a company is willing to give the best to their user , that kind of brand , you can really trust .

for clarification , this is just my review and my feelings plus my experience , i have nothing to go against lenovo, this is what i am experiencing.

So moral of the story I feel like I got cheated from buying a lousy product. So for people who are experiencing the same problem, do feel free to comment on the box down below.
