Only downer is the battery life really.
And by a little more you mean almost £200 or basically 50% more.

To be honest, for everyday use this is brill. Every product will have its negatives, nothings perfect. You will never buy one if you go off hukd comments and reviews :stuck_out_tongue: . I'm not just saying it because I'm the OP, I only post a deal if I think it's good for the price.

I am getting at £469.99*. should I buy or wait? any discount code?
amour3k to vicky_icon2008
30 Dec 16#68
There's no Codes for this I'm as yet aware of?, but .....
Go via either TopCashBack, OR Quidco for anything from a further 1%-10% off the above stated cost/price also, hehehe. :-)
Plus, an extra £10 Code exists for this on that thread (as per my above/previous comment here?).
Read my above comments ..... thanx. :-)

Would this be any good for premier pro and photo shop ? I do a lot of video editing and my Mac book pro is bugging me now.

Yes it WOULD!, but appears the price may have now shot up to the best part of £500 now?, so .....
A 'similar' Product to this perhaps, could maybe be this instead? (which would also suffice for your purposes?), you may also like to consider, is this:
There's also an EXTRA £10 off code for this same Laptop floating about, on the bottom of Page 2 (via 1 of the comments) - I'm using my Phone for this comment as I'm typing this to you (so cutting & pasting both Code + Link, would have been hell!). :-(
Lol, see what you think anyway?. :-)

Which one for general use? Will be carried around a lot. Just about to pull trigger on a 120GB SSD, but the linked one already has one. HP 250

Is Sata-III, SSD or HDD?
newmann to tumbleweed34
28 Nov 16#55
It can be either, Sata-III is the interface (faster speeds than earlier SATA versions and other types of interfaces).

If anyone has any suggestions for a better laptop could they suggest one please ? Every time I see a deal posted there are always that many negative comments I get put off . Im looking for one for everyday use and streaming etc, not for gaming or programming ? TIA

P.s ...I have no idea what an SSD is either.....
slliw to michellecullen58
27 Nov 161#45
SSD solid state drive. They have no moving parts in them and thus can load programmes and boot up a pc up to 10 times faster then a conventional hard drive. They cost a lot more and tend have lesser capacity then normal hard drives

People falling hook, line and sinker for Intel's badge engineering. Don't just buy it because it's got an "i7" processor (because it's a lowly dual core) - you will find a lot of i5 processors will beat this.

The John Lewis version of this laptop for £449 has a dedicated nvidia 2gb graphics card, which might help those wanting to play games

Might be remembering wrong as seen so many laptop specs lately but wasn't it a 920m so wouldn't help much if at all.

Also comes with a 2TB hdd.... Which I would probably swap out for an SSD but it's not often you see laptops with a 2TB harddrive. I would be interested to see what model it is though. The only 2.5" 2tb harddrive I ever saw was something by Seagate, who are not very reliable. Maybe things have changed since I last checked though. Here's the link:
It's the same price as OP's so if you're going to take the plunge there's no reason not to get this one instead. That's if it comes back in stock.

trying to order and open a new argos credit card but its giving me an error message before i can start the application. any idea?
tidymonkey81
27 Nov 16#36
considering this option from JL and getting the +3 yr warranty extension (one of my main requirements is to replace the device if it develops a physical fault). anyone know why I might choose this option from Argos? They don't seem to offer any warranty or service extension for their products so can I get the same directly from Lenovo?
androidavis to tidymonkey81
27 Nov 16#38
I think the 3 year warranty and 2gb Nvidia dedicated graphics card are worth the little extra at John Lewis. The benefit of buying the one at Argos, without those benefits of the JL deal, is pretty much that it costs less money

Would this play GTA V well ? Does the i7 and 8gb make up for shared graphics ?
a kindly beast to DonkeyKonk
27 Nov 16#23
depends really. don't know if it will play gta5 certainly through cpu has the grunt. if the ram is upgradeable then that will help but Intel graphics is a big no no for aaa games...
Pondlife to DonkeyKonk
27 Nov 16#37
Well 8gb is minimum spec for GTA v anyway isn't it.

It plays, but wouldn't say well, the GPU is clearly what's holding it back.
