Lenovo IdeaPad Y650-8343UT Notebook

[DogFather0808]

If you get a chance to buy one of these used, GO FOR IT. You won't be disappointed.

[JerryDFarrell]

The 'Book Book' Mac Book Pro Cover is a perfect cover for this machine. Bought the cover and it works great for this Laptop.

[jpcwa74]

Nice laptop. Big and light.

[nelizmastr]

dont jerk off to it, unless its playing pr0n!!!

[MrCS95]

UBL not JBL dumb... CC

[MYMAnarchy]

Haha Albert. I guess It was a P7805u-FX

[serbianstud16]

I have the Lenovo IdeaPad Y730 and its great. Period.

[btardakbar]

no firewire,

no dvi

no wifi 802.11n

and function key is on the place of ctrl

[mcdudly00]

we dont mind....

[Beniamin992]

is it cold and quiet while working?

[ninjaspion]

you can use 2 finger to scroll, 3 fingers to swipe...

These companies are copying the macbooks!

Look at the design! The screen opens just like the Macbook air and the macbook white!

[ali2k4]

@ninjaspion

Macbook air was a fail ..second it did not contain a cd player so FAIL. ... jsut because its thin doesn mean its copying mac ..

and multitouch wasnt developed by mac so relax ur mac jealousy..

[ninjaspion]

I'm talking about design dude!

It looks like that all computer companies are copying Apple! Two examples: HP Envy and this Lenovo.

And I agree with you! Macbook air was a total Fail!

[mcdudly00]

so?

[hmattyj]

These things are pieces of SHIT.  I sold 6 of them, 5 have come back already and Lenovo isn't making this anymore.

SHIT PAIL.

[alayhamsaleh]

I see that this laptop's CPU supports intel virtualization, but does the bios support it?

did anybody try to load a VM or install linux on Virtual PC 2007 on any Lenovo Y650?

[cxyang07]

come on! You said the video card sucks.

because what you bought is Y650 - 418556U. that is integrated video card. If you want to spend more money to buy Lenovo IdeaPad Y650 - 418534U. you will see the difference.

[UltimateSinX]

*update* I assumed world of warcraft would play decent I just want to let everyone know it does not play wow well at all. Not a gaming computer

[thegamercave]

these netbooks are really just meant for document creation and web serfing...college type stuff..

[UltimateSinX]

I just bought this laptop. The video card has no dedicated memory so if you plan play newer games it won't run as smooth if at all but older games like wow will be fine. It uses the cpu's ram which is why they made it DDR3 to run fast and share with the video card.

[SnowBall2k10]

i almost bought this from newegg for 850, but the graphics card is horrible....so i opted for the vaio fw490 instead. if u don't game then this laptop is perfection, light with big screen and loaded at 850usd is very worth it (4gb ram DDR3!!)

[JediBarbie]

Thanks for the review! Quick question. What is the difference between the Y650 - 418534U and the Y650 - 418556U?

[ivfummi]

the graphics are different 8556 is Intel and 8534 is NIVIDIA.... of course the price is almost $ 500 different. 8534 is more than 1200 grand

[Anavengertg]

Lol the macbook 17" is 5.5 lbs

[FichDak]

It's 6.6lbs dumbass

[Anavengertg]

Yea my bad. The 15" is 5.5lbs

[rhoghost]

lenovo rox

[nvidea8400gs]

FAIL, no dedicated graphics, only crappy g105m as an option

[RaCinKHmeRBoi34]

they actually have nivdia graphics also

[StefanH1234]

the Geforce G105m is Nvidia Graphics

[nvidea8400gs]

The g105m is a Nvidia graphics card (dedicated), and it is not very good by my own reckoning, its basically an over clocked geforce 9300m.

[rhoghost]

does it heat up like a hp?

[nvidea8400gs]

i don't know, all i know is is that after an hour of use, my dv5 (9600m and t9400 C2d) gets very hot!!!! and crashes thanks to what i think is simply poor ventilation

[rhoghost]

i think thats cuz of ventilation issues too, i mean i know over 7 guys who had that issue with hp notebooks. i dont think they have changes their design yet. but i didnt get ne issue like that with my think pad though.

[bettyboop17d]

lmao... kick em in the face. lol. i burst to laughter. ;)

[onfirealex]

i have the y510, and its AMAZING! its everything i could ever want. BUT, its kinda heavy, and i walk to school with it. so this one looks perfect. i want this one now, damnit.

[jamleafer]

MY GOD this thing is nice... however i am not willing to pay 1600 canadian for it, when the y550 comes out i may buy that one, or if this one comes on any kind of sale..

[zhuanghongzhe2000]

dude, great show. keep up the good work. you guys are awesome.and a lot of my friends in china like you guys a lot!! ------------------- respect from china

[jnchewb]

The cpu sure was having some fun during the review. This laptop is awesome.

[jamesrschultz]

Yes it is, I have some carbon fiber in my Ferrari, and it's ridiculously expensive.

[hamsteryte]

Did he say the HDD? or RAM?

[tacka02]

how expensive can it get with a carbon fiber frame

[Moonface00z]

This laptop isnt worth 1600 anymore for crap sake... i can buty this off amazon for 900

[edwardqiu]

you can get it for a mere $1199 (U.S.), thats not expensive.

[DeepFriedChickenGB]

@edwardqiu Amazon=<3=$799

[moses3322]

hahaha! it usez 50% of da cpu when itz n idle! datz good intel 45nm technology!

[jasa00]

45nm Technology has nothing to do with CPU usage. Its the operating System / Software on the laptop. Mabye is scanning for viruses?

[GF8800gtx9999]

lol no its the manufacturing size of intelprocessors today :)

[moses3322]

45nm means small dat means more transistors in a die, dat means can do more calculations per second, itz a new pc no need 2 run virus scan. U knw y itz using 50%?..... intel core 2 duoz fsb bottle neckz ur pc! fsb has single way communication datz y.!! Buy AMD Turionx2, connect with hyper transport link 16bit x 2 up n down links, get better performance. buy AMD smarter choice...

[talldude123]

$1600? I paid $1000 less for my laptop, and sure, it has a CPU, video card, and memory equal to this! Atlhon QL-60, 4GB DDR2, 8200M 512MB, 250GB HD. But you see my point, overpriced! This machine could even include a video card too! not intel!

[itsCheeze]

There's so much more to a computers price than specifications...

[kneegrowontharun]

whats the program he uses to read the cpu and ram usage???

[4DUMBASSES]

i wish this can get a graphics card upgrade: 9800m gts or the 9400m gt (the one in the apple macbook)

[tenshitaiakuma]

he's got gpu-z and cpu-z on that laptop

[saintlavin]

kick his face! lol

[badboymino]

It dont have an xd card slot. An xd card slot is about 1 cm thick. the card slot is only for sd/mmc.

[ZchampGT45]

That laptop has alot of programs on the system tray!

[hallowarum]

yeaaaaaaah look at the sidebar.........80% cpu used without having any programm started

[casp120]

*double lolz*

[itsCheeze]

"80% cpu used without having any programm started"

Programs were started, they just weren't on screen, and the gauges on the sidebar read 51% and 45% (I don't know which one means cpu usage) but not 80%...

[rapljwop]

It was looking so nice until I learned it only has an Intel Integrated GMA X4500 MHD graphics chip set. Fit an nVidia GeForce Go 8600GT and it would be awesome (although you can't do that 'cause of the fact the the stupid Intel chip is in the motherboard!)

[nerddna]

8600 gt is like 4 years old you mean a gtx 130 which is an option

[buzzin92]

why not the radeon mobility 4870 x2... that'll work great :P

[rapljwop]

To nerddna

Well the 8600M GT came out in the middle of 2007, so it's not that old and it's pretty good.

[tomminky23]

It looks nice but performance wise it's pretty poor.

[nerddna]

yah its quite fast and you can get one of those with a gtx 130 if you want

[virtualmatrix258]

$2,200? In a recession? No thanks.

[Buzzap14]

>"Kick him in the face"

Yep, That's what I always do when someone attempts to access my files.

Great review; You're awesome Albert.

[Intr0sp3ctive]

"You name it, it can read it"...

Blu ray lulz

[Peetah16]

hmm one question whats new about the new centrino 2 prossecor and the old core 2 duo's? reply plz

[newkie2008]

nice laptop but its expensive and the intel graphics...

anyway (-_-)

[dannybetts123]

Cool video A+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++­+++

[itsCheeze]

What's wrong with integrated graphics...?

[Peetah16]

because intergrated graphics means it'll never preform as good as dedecated graphics

[Renttuli]

lol sucks in gaming

[nerddna]

its a media center pc not a gaming rig

[YukiLT]

Rofl 2gb ram in use.. ^_^.

[IkePwnzU]

Its DDR3... So that's all youll need,.

[Jon3sySk8er]

64Bit vista.. uses tht much.. my m8s PC does lol..

[Renttuli]

they ruined it with the integrated videocard :(

[juanpxm]

at least there's an option for dedicated graphics, can't go wrong with that..

[lorikzzz]

LOL it has bluetooth which is incredible

[pimpcheater]

looks like a awesome laptop , and finally some pc laptops with DDR3

[Isakceim]

Classbunker.

[Cezarijus]

"Oh boy, i think i am in love again?" AGAIN ? lol

[pandapop999]

[chrisybwell]

[Isakceim]
