Hey /g/, I'm thinking about buying the Lenovo Ideapad 100 15 inch.
I'm buying Lenovo because I've heard good stuff about them.
I need basically an affordable laptop for Visual Studio, running some mobile device VRs and maybe playing games, all on Win7.
Should I?

dont. i have a g50 series (before they all became ideapads, mine is basically an ideapad 300) and its utter SHIT.
The only good lenovo laptops are T W X and P series thinkpads.

Can you recommend me a model?
I need it as an extra and to be able to study in coffee places after work, I'll have a proper desktop at home anyways.
I'm looking for a 500$ laptop so I don't expect it to be amazing, but it needs to be at least adequate.

Get a x230 (12") or t430 (14"). Avoid the **40 models because of the shit clickpad.

Why dont you buy a Yoga instead?? They have proper IPS displays with touch

I really don't care about neither touch screens nor a fancy display. It'll be basically my study notebook, not my usual PC, that I have at home.

I'll probably go with the T430, found it for 490 bucks where I live

>$490
Are you Australian or something? They go for 1/2 that in the US on eBay.

you can just put a **50 series touchpad on the 40 series

I know, but OP doesnt seem to be the type of person who would want to do that.
Using a Lenovo B50-30 Touch at the moment.
Really good, and the 500GB HDD works well. Just be sure to max out RAM (8GB DDR3L)
