Lenovo Ideapad 530S Intel Core I5 8th gen 15.6 inch FHD Laptop (8GB RAM/256 GB SSD/GEFORCE MX150/Windows 10 Home/MS Office 2016/Mineral Gray/1.69 Kg), 81EV00B5IN

Amazing laptop in the 15.6" category.Pros:1. Beautiful and bright 15.6" screen.2. Screen is anti-glare and not glossy. Being anti-glare make the viewing angles good and there is no reflection on such a large screen which you would get in on any glossy screen.3. The 512 GB SSD only storage is sufficient and due to SSD the boot up time and shut down time is only 3-4 seconds which is super awesome. Any software loaded in the machine opens up fast and the usual operation of these software is flawless.4. Build quality is great as it has aluminium finish.5. Trackpad is very smooth. This is the best trackpad I have ever used. You will definitely love running your fingers on it.6. 2 nos. USB 3.0, 1 HDMI and 1 Type C port. Which is sufficient in opinion.7. Very light weight (1.69Kgs). This could be due to SSD only storage. Usually the weight of HDD makes the laptop heavy. SSD being flash memory is very light weight in nature. This is probably the best part of the laptop considering it is 15.6" screen. Most of the laptops in this size are 2Kg and above (usually 2.3Kg).8. Sound is good as it is from Harman.9. It comes with Nvidia 2 GB MX150 GPU which is powerful and you can play GTA like games on this laptop which makes it highly powerful configuration.10. Key pad is backlit and keys are large and don't make sound while typing which in comparison to Apple Mackbook or Mackbook Pro is really nice. Apple laptop's keyboard make noise which is really not good. You can watch YouTube videos to check it and people getting annoyed with Apple Laptop keypad.Enough pros now let's talk about cons.1. I ended the pros with keypad so let's start the cons with keypad only. What is it? Well, being a 15.6" laptop it should have number pad as well. Which is missing in this laptop. All of us make some or other calculation everytime and a number is really easy to do it.2. Sound is not loud enough as the speakers are position at the bottom of the laptop. While it is definitely not bad but in my opinion since so many features are coming now a day's in laptops and mobilephone, a 15.6 " laptop should have speakers on top of the keypad so that the sound can be louder. HP pavilion laptop series has this feature and advantage over Lenovo, Dell, Asus or Acer.3. No finger print scanner.4. On Amazon the price of this laptop is Rs. 71,999 but in multi brand store you can get it for Rs. 62,000. This is Rs.10,000 less than. Amazon price which makes a very big difference.5. Camera- it's literally pathetic camera I have ever seen in a laptop. I don't understand if mobile phones can have good selfie camera what happened to Lenovo to put a good camera in the laptop. Even other laptops like HP, Dell etc have much better cameras in their laptop then what happened to Lenovo. They must look into this issue as now a days lots meetings are done online over Skype etc.Over all the cons (except camera) really don't matter much as compared to pros of this laptop and I would highly recommend to buy this laptop but please check the price in Lenovo store or a multi brand store as they have much lower price than what is being sold on Amazon. There is no difference in the configuration.

Everything is just awesomePros-Its just amazingly light weight and properly balanced weight. The 512 gb ssd just makes things blazing fast. The included graphics card also helps a lot in performance. the keyboard is very good and comfortable to type on,its properly backlit and nice. The body is sexy and slim. Display is sharp and bright and anti glare. All other things are awesome too. Battery back up on browsing and movie watching is around 6/8 hours.Cons-The speaker is not that loud and good. And the display colors are a bit slightly on the white side.Go for it if you want a slim awesome laptop with very good day to day performance but no gaming. If you want to do gaming or want good multimedia performance go for something else the display colours and the speakers are not the best for multimedia experience.

It's looking good but the big issue is battery drain .it's because may be I might received the default product but I don't know still

I didn't found any cons in this device, even after some bad reviews i went for it.. And i got it as expected...1) I didn't found my wifi adapter going wrong.. By disconnecting..2) speakers are not that good but you got what u expect from a laptop.3) screen brightness is enough.4) body and design.... 😍😍 Are love.So i think those who reviewed it as a bad laptop, I think that they haven't even bought it..

Been using this product now for a few days and it's an amazing product. Good battery backup with daily usage functions. Product definitely meets the expectations. Only thus I would have liked is a 1TB SSD instead of a 500gb.. And wouldn't mind a bag from lenovo after spending so much. 😉😅

Update-2.0- Those who are facing wifi issues should contact Lenovo. They will install previous version of the Realtek wifi driver and the issue would never occur again. (I did the same)Update- Got a replacement from amazon , now its working as it is supposed to.Though it is such a good model with good specs for the price and so light weight (obvious pros and cons already been mentioned by others), I would like to inform that the particular model that I have received has a screen blinking issue( black screen for 0.1 second or so in every few seconds) and the internet connectivity with Wi-Fi keeps getting interrupted in every 15-20 minutes, though its working fine at the same moment on other devices ( I then disable it and enable it instantly to get it to work for the next 15 minutes !!). This is really very frustrating.Intially after turning it on after quite a good time, the frequency of blinking is not high, but it increases as time passes.Don’t know whether its a manufacturing defect ( loose cable connecting display and motherboard) or software problem.I have done all sorts of basic troubleshooting ( updates, drivers reinstallation), nothing has worked. Connected it to TV through HDMI , there was no blinking on TV. This rules out the chances of any software problem.Moreover Amazon is too slow, have asked me to wait for some time for technician visit, dont know why can’t they arrange a technician visit right away.Disappointed..

I bought this laptop for my friend. The initial impressions are as followsPros# Aluminium body, premium looks, narrow bezels, sleek to hold# Rapid charge feature# Good performance# Shallow keys like macbook# Super fast SSD (Benchmarks attached)Cons# average battery life (5 to 6 hours)# Audio on speakers is not that good# Finger print reader is not that accurateOverall this is a good compact laptop considering the price. Performance is really good since it has a fast ssd. Well, if you are a media buff, go for something better with better display and audio, maybe a macbook air. But if performance is your main consideration go for this.
