    Thought these look decent enough for the money.. solid brand in Lenova too.

    Grand for casual use I'm sure. Solid reviews online too.

    Part of the Expert Electrical Black Friday Sale.. currently €30 more on Lenova's official site.

    nice little item. just personally I'd find a slightly bigger 11.6" screen and correspondingly bigger keyboard more usable for productivity work (word, excel etc).

    What's the company like to buy from, no rating on Trust Pilot.

    And what is the actual HDD size? It says "Up to 128GB" but no option to check this when checking out?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,627 ✭✭✭tedpan


    There's no specs listed? The description is just the manufacturer's blurb.

    I'm guessing it's 2GB of RAM and 32 or 64GB of storage at that price. Best to call them first I'd say.

    They're a major electrical retailer in Ireland, never had an issue with them.

    I'm also guessing the screen resolution is different too as the description says up to 1920 x 1200.

    I have a Lenovo miix 310 with 4GB and 64GB of storage(cost me 199e a year ago). It's fine for travelling and browsing the web etc. With the OS and office installed I only have around 35GB available though. I added a 128GB micro SD for storage.

    Make sure this has at least 64GB to start anyway..

    I don't know why they use the term up to but in this case does have 4GBs RAM, 128GBs storage and a 1920x1200 display.

    Ah, did you get one? Not a bad deal at all with those specs.

    I didn't actually I googled it and based it off the lenovo uk site. Plus, if something said it was up to 4GBs RAM and up to 128GBs storage yet it only came with 2GB and 32GB respectively then I think it's safe to say it's false advertising. At the very least it's misleading and I can't imagine them doing it. It could be an error though so yeah, like you say check it out before you buy.

    This is the part number listed on expert's site 80XF00A1UK

    Just checked the Lenovo website and John Lewis in the UK. It's a 32GB, 2GB, non HD machine unfortunately.

    Google it.

    Unfortunately Lenovo are renowned for listing max specs and then showing the real specs at the bottom of the page.

    Whoever put the description on the expert site should be shot. At one point they talk about the miix 310!

    Yeah, very misleading. I wonder how many people will buy it for their kids and realise when it's too late..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,627 ✭✭✭tedpan


    OP, I think the specs should be updated in your post, it's a bit misleading


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,200 ✭✭✭✭Basq

    Sorry gang.. looked far better on first glance.
