Anyone know what the screen quality is like on these?

No Bluetooth, seriously?

Completely agree. No BT is a pain.

I need something similar- it has to cost up to £450, i5 is enough, but with 1080p IPS screen.

can anyone tell me how it compares against this laptop for £50 more

http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/computing/laptops/laptops/lenovo-ideapad-510s-14-laptop-red-10146134-pdt.html

would the i7 v i5 make a big difference as the i5 has a better graphics (i think!)

i7 blinds some people but honestly this laptop is kinda crap for the price. Cold

Guys whoever votes cold or comments stupid statements care to explain why?

Laptop is solid for the price. Any FullHd screen will blow other screens anyday and for this proce its amazing. HOT. And who said no Bluetooth?

And anyone voting cold can you please post another laptop with better specs and warranty and then come back to this thread. Else :-)

£399 better spec? I7 6700hq processor will wipe the floor with this one and 2tb hd.

Overclocked i3 for £500

i might be wrong but currys lenovo 310 amd A10 has better graphics capabilities then intel shared graphics. FHD. bluetooth. DVDRW drive 8GB DDR4 . 349.00 search currys ideapad 310.

To start with, the form factor on your Curry's link is ONLY 14"? (as opposed to my 15.6"?), graphics, performance, speed, etc?, are ALMOST guaranteed to 'perform' (so to speak?), yes?.

Eg. on a few different cheap £50-£120 Android Tablets I've owned in the past, as well as £80+ Windows Tablets that I'm currently using also, when I'm streaming Media from these via WiFi, &/or via an App installed on respective Tablet's to play some previously purchased HD Video's (that have then been 'locally' downloaded & the like ... ) they allllllll play the respective streams & stuff FLAWLESSLY!! (DESPITE processor, &/or ram wise for any of the above are all shizzle!, but yet?).

On account of their incredibly SMALL form factors, where the equivalent of Rocket Fuel is not required to fire up such a thing for 'A Class' optimal criteria's, etc?.

Try claiming the with a full fledged Laptop costing in the region of £200-£250? (yes, anything up to more than DOUBLE anything I've previously paid for any of my Tablets in the past!, but yet ..... )

You'd more realistically looking at a £300+ Laptop with 1001 times better than that of any 'average' Tablet costing anything up to less than a quarter of the said Laptops price, or whatever?.

The form factor plays key to the otherwise mis-preconceived 'boost' a 14" Laptop has, over that of the very same specc'ed 15.6" bigger brother?, so .....

That how I interpret it anyway? (I'm more than open to any re-clarification on/of any of my above stated statement too mind?). :-)

Your link is SSD, whereas mine is not.

Mine is i7, whereas yours too, is not.

It could come down to a simple case of Horses for Courses too I guess?, lol. :-)

now I'm more confused than before! lol

ignoring the diff in screen size and cost, do you think there's much diff in performance? also the i7 has a better warrenty 3yr v 1yr.

Hehehe, from what I've gathered over time via HUKD is this, SSD Drives farrrrrr outweigh that of their standard HDD Drive equivalents? (hands down!).

But saying (apart from the that that the SSD on your Curry's link is about 1/4 of that of my linked HDD), SSD's (IF you really want one, that is?), can be had for between £30-£100 odd?.

I don't care how 'FANCY' your Bargain Hunting Skills are yeh?, your NEVER (for now at least?, lol), going to get a Laptop CPU upgrade from an i3 to an i7 for anything LESS than the best part of £10+?, so ..... (that's like a fresh/new basic Chromebook right there?, or a couple of simple Android AND Windows Tablets straight!) :-(

You'll be basically blatantly paying wayyyyyyyyy over the odd's, yeh? (not good!).

If you want/need an SSD that much, buy one separately via somewhere?, eg. Amazon, PC World, Dabs.com, Maplin, and .... then migrate your then current pre-existing Windows 10 OS from my above Laptop link, and put it onto your new/fresh, and now waiting SSD Drive instead like?, or .....

That's my personal suggestion to you anyway?, lol. :-)

My bad!, your link is for that of an i5?, lool. :-)

Similar principles to that what I've already mentioned above already, will still (in-part, or in-full) apply same way?. :-)

Sorry there was 4 when I posted it. Awesome deal but I too have had problems with HP quality control.

Guys you are buying a laptop from a retail store that offers 3 year warranty and exemplary customer service.

Those who want to compare this to ebay, please buy one from ebay :smiley: This thread is not for you.

People who had HP laptops and had problem. I appreciate you had problems, but have you heard people say my HP laptop was wonderful? Never right. People only complain when things go wrong. They dont post when things go fine for years.

My friends had HP laptops and both of them have it since 2010, so no question of reliability for them :smiley:

Thought it was 2016 still :wink:

​ive been an avid intel fan for every pc and laptop ive owned but this AMD chip is good. the entire specs are good for 349. full hd and 8gb ddr4 ram plus opticle drive bluetooth etc you cant argue thats a lot of laptop for the money. it performs flawlessly.

I totally agree!.

All I'd previously known in the past were INTEL's too?, BUT of the last few AMD's I've had in the past too!, well .....

Let's just say that (at that particular point in time at least?), I PREFERRED the AMD's to any of that of any INTEL offering at the time!. :-)

Yep!, AMD's are sooooooooooooooo heavily under rated, by everyone!!!. :-(

Not IPS :disappointed:
