Buy Lenovo ThinkPad Edge E535 32605SU 15.6 LED Notebook AMD A4-4300M

Customer Ratings:

I purchased a Think Pad Edge 425 in January 2012 directly off of Lenovo's website. It is the same laptop as the E535 except that it has the 14" screen. In that time that I have had it, I have suffered two hard drive failures which were covered under warranty. I had to take it to a local computer shop both times to have the data recovered and transfered to the new drive. I was sent instructions on transfering the first time; but I did not feel that I had the expertise to do so, thus I took the computer to a local repair shop at my own expense.

This week end I experienced another failure. I used the computer Friday evening to listen to and watch music videos on You Tube. It worked perfectly and the shut down was normal. I went to boot up Saturday morning and the computer was completely dead. Nothing won't start just dead. The machine is now out of warranty so I'm stuck. I'll take it to the shop again to see if they can get it running again. If they are successful I will buy a new Windows 7 machine from HP after I transfer my files. HP is still selling new Windows 7 machines I refuse to convert to Windows 8. 8 is another sad tale.

I am very disappointed because the computer was perfect for my needs when it worked. The key board was excellant. The sound was good. The screen was good. The size of the computer was perfect and the A-4 4300M processor performed well on all tasks that I tried to do on the machime. It was the ideal machine when it worked which sadly was not to often.

Took the laptop in to my repairman on 4/15/2013. Was advised that the mother board was bad. The cost to repair is more than I paid for the laptop. This computer is 13 months old and is shot. Wasted over $500 on this machine and have no recourse. Buyer beware.

I have owned this exact model and it has performed flawlessly for over 6 months. I appreciate the ability to add or subtract Tiles which you can use to call up web sites or programs. I love Windows 7 but Lenovo has improved it by adding soft ware which provides a large selection "tiles" which give it the appearance and some of the function of Windows 8.

I find nothing to slam about this laptop, especially when saying it is the same as a different model of a different size. I have not had any issue with the HDD. It has performed perfectly for me as has the entire laptop.
