You brought them to where? I don't understand your comment.

Very are fine if you get a good product and have no problems. But the moment you have an issue whether it be delivery or product related, you might as well go bang your head against a wall than speak to Very. Awful customer services.

Do you thjink we could do with a laptops thread, with best deals under £300, £400, £500 etc.?

C'mon guys .this deal is not hot....don't mislead others...its i3, 4gbram, 1tbHHR, these are selling for this prices for a while ....plus this machine is ultra slow....i look this website but some mislead other ..and thats wrong

Never buy electronics or in fact anything from very.

these are from £299 so missed the deal

Nope. The drop-down it said to select was only present on the laptops that were £299 and up. I didn't try very hard, though, as I have free educational Office365.

Did you manage to get it with a free Microsoft Office?

It is Core i3 5005U, no i3 4005 as listed above. Passmark difference is around 500.

Received on Saturday. Girlfriend very happy with it and its perfect for what it gets used for (Facebook and photos mostly!)

COLD. Screen is shocking quality 720p. I don't care if it's £200, 720p on a 15 inch screen in 2017 is woeful.

this is a good deal because there is not any other i3 deal anywhere near currently. i3 4005u passmark is still reasonable and better than all the current n series celeron and pentiums in this price bracket. full hd at this price point currently is a no go. for me this machine buy it switch it out for 240gb ssd you have a fast general purpose laptop for £300 and a spare 1tb hard drive

Why is this hot? Crap res, 3 generations old, no SSD.

2015 this would be a decent deal.

£249.99 + £3.99 del, plus 10% credited to your credit account if you buy via account. Or APPLY promo code SAVE20 and it knocks of £20 from the total price.

lenovo keyboards are the worst

if you go order the blue model it states green in your basket

Bought my PS4 from them on BNPL and had no issues.

has the blue version sold out?

For anyone rightly devaluing review companies with questionable statistical relevance, this website appears to have many more reviewers to judge from:
https://www.reviews.io/company-reviews/store/www-johnlewis-com-
https://www.reviews.co.uk/company-reviews/store/very

I've been with Very for over 18 years and never had a single problem with them.

I probably bought dozens of things from Very over the years including 2 Laptops. Never really had a problem.

In contrast only used JL about 3 or 4 times and had problems every single time.

Is this a better deal?

I think you need to read what baggielad wrote, I was replying to a £349.99 laptop he linked in his comment.

Hi. I'm looking for a cheap laptop that I can download programs to (eg BBC iPlayer) and watch later via a HDMI lead on a TV. Does anyone know if this is suitable or can they suggest anything better please?

I just bought this for my daughter £190 (with 15% off code-see old BG thread) slower processor but SSD and full HD, DVDRW, SD card , 15"

here

W15AF gets 15% off

This is £348.00, thats about £100 more!, not really a good comparison.

[quote=RiverDragon8]

That would've have been perfect if it was still available.

I would rather have this laptop for the same price click. This was selling for £280 6 months ago.

Every time a laptopwith a similar spec appears on here there are always criticisms about the price and screen resolution. However, no one posts any links to these mythical i3 laptops with full HD screens. I've spent the last week looking for a similar spec laptop and before this, the best I could find from a decent source was this Acer

http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/computing/laptops/laptops/acer-aspire-e5-475-14-laptop-grey-10157735-pdt.html

This has a better processor and double the RAM. Also, I would hope that the slightly smaller screen size might improve the screen. If anybody can post a better deal I would be really grateful.

I've personally never ever had an issue with Very.

Always use their Take 3 payment option when a £20 off £50 voucher comes along

Green one is £249.99 now and there is also 10% credit back to your very account.
SAVE20 code also gives you £20.00 credit to Very account.

Very are a bunch of crooks, will not be dealing with them ever again.

I'm sorry, I have no idea what you mean! I hope you are not insinuating that I am acting oblivious in order to point out a grammatical error? :man:

Ok, you got me.

Great price

You are forgetting the part where they link a first gen i7 with a battery that lasts 15 mins and a 12" screen.

Get ready for "I got one on black Friday for £200" or "You can pick up an i7 laptop wth 2TB SSD on ebay for same sort of price" or "Ummm I can't"

C'mon guys .this deal is not hot....don't mislead others...its i3, 4gbram, 1tbHHR, these are selling for this prices for a while ....plus this machine is ultra slow....i look this website but some mislead other ..and thats wrong

Corrected! :smiley:

I will never, EVER buy from Very again.

Shouldn't be allowed on hukd after some of the stunts they've pulled IMO.

Never buy electronics or in fact anything from very.

anyone got any alternatives from other suppliers in the same price range?

worst company ever waited weeks and weeks for denby dishes that I paid up front for and never arrived. . If you've got the patience of a saint and not bothered if you ever get the laptop then go for it what have you got to loose except a few annoying chase up emails you will probably have to write.

Thanks

noddy question...the process looks old gen...does it still cut it in today's world?

Thanks - bought in purple for same price

lol wut?
Good price, but a bit random to have a processor of that generation in a new laptop. I'd be a little concerned about the quality of the rest of the components.

Been with Very for 2 years, have bought loads including high end tv's, laptops and mobile phones, never had even 1 problem.

As long as you are meeting your expectations with the deal no issues with very here. Most of the deals require you to take finance but can usually pay it off in 30 days if you want too.

thanks for this, I may not risk shopping online at JL either based on that :wink:

Come on, you know full well that if you have to ask where they brought them from/to, the point of your grammatical comment will be completely lost on the person. :smile:

It's a lost cause I'm afraid

it's a fantastic deal but I couldn't risk it https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/uk.trustpilot.com/amp/review/www.very.co.uk

They might have bad rep but at least they are British so you should be protected rather than overseas which can take months to sort out.
