Done with Lenovo forever

So I’ve made the mistake of buying a few of Lenovos laptops including one low range 17″ and two different gen gaming y520s and I hate to say it but that’s how long it took me to understand how absolutely shit they were, both of the y520 lacked any sort of driver/bios support, the other one of them for example had the CPU throttle curve made so terribly that the instant it became a little hot it dropped the clocks to 1.5Ghz effectively ruining the gaming experience.. there were no updates or anything from Lenovo despite many people having the same issue, someone had managed to make a really hacky way of fixing it.. BUT YOU SHOULDNT HAVE TO WRITE YOUR OWN THROTTLE CURVES INTO BIOS FOR A 1000€ LAPTOP.

The other two were just cheap plastic, bloatware and disappointing performance with boat loads of heat, I’ve since gotten smarter and changed to an Asus, trust me, I have never been happier. No longer is my lap on fire but I also get performance that i want withouth modding the god damn laptop.

Stupid Policy

I bought a Lenovo Ideapad 3, just before Christmas. The ‘-‘ key fell off. I then managed to misplace it. I called customer service to get a replacement. All I wanted was to have them send me a part, which costs but a few cents. They suggested instead that I should return the computer to them and they would do the replacement, but it would take an estimated three weeks. I pointed out that I could do the repair myself (I have done it many times) and it should take less than 5 seconds. They told me that they could not help, due to ‘policy’. How dumb is this?

Bad Lenovo

Lenovo….welcome to a nightmare you actually pay money to inherit!! Omg!!! First off I bought this for the rating and supposed ranking of this brand…..it was an ideapad 3 BAD IDEA….anyways It came with McAfee pre installed and seemed like it was protecting me….WRONG AGAIN!!! I got a nasty worm or malware even while it was installed. I called tech support and they said it would cost me about her $200 a year to fix and that they experience this kind of thing very often…..I was like ??? Anyways I said I already spent $ 500 and got infected now you want me to spend another $200?? This is the WORST company I have ever dealt with and I for one will NEVER buy another Lenovo piece of garbage EVER!!! Save your money and buy something else they are scammers and their products are shit!!!
