Average performance at good price index.I brought Lenovo G450-2949 2HQ in month of March 2009. It gave me average performance till today. I had problem with Wifi / Bluetooth, Lenovo service center guy quickly sorted out that problem. I am running Windows XP and Windows Se7en. Battery backup is quite good; I am getting 2.7 Hrs of backup time while running XP and nearly 3 hrs on Se7en.
I really like the glossy finish even though it does attract fingerprints and dust. Wide screen display is great to watch movies in 16:9 aspect ratio. Sound quality is not upto mark with inbuilt speakers. Good quality headphone produced decent sound output.Overall I can give 8 out of 10 for this gadget.
