Best Price Dell Inspiron i1564-8634OBK 1564 Laptop 15.6-Inch Review (Obsidian Black) with Free Shipping

We examined features, costs, etc on every laptop and under cost range and picked this model Dell from Amazon. We’ve both been blown away by it is display clarity, speed, ease of use, and features like full numeric keypad, built in camera, as well as the functions of the loaded Windows 7 OS. My wife’s desk top tower finally had enough. Simply because of her work as a grade school teacher she had a school assigned laptop and had come to really appreciate a laptop’s utility and convenience.

It is been over a month since we bought this pc, we have not experienced any difficulties. The 9 cell battery is really a large plus. We would recommend this product. This really is a really nice pc. I love all the memory and it’s a nice zippy machine. I would say this really is a great pc for watching videos and other media.

This really is a excellent laptop that offers great performance comparing to the cost. Disadvantages: Dell bloats the OS with unnecessary software program that caused some crashes. I removed almost all Dell’s software program and now everything works fine.

The big-screen Inspiron laptop puts it all right in front of you, in a convenient, stylish package. With a brilliant 15.6″ HD+ screen and spacious keyboard that sports an adjacent 10-key numeric keypad, you can go for hours in total comfort. This laptop packs the latest tech with Intel® Core™ i3 processor, 4GB of memory, and a 500GB hard drive. Whether you are creating your own music or video, watching your favorite HD movie, emailing, surfing the web, downloading or organizing your pictures, this versatile laptop travels well, looks great and handles your needs for years to come. 30 day trial of McAfee SecurityCenter with anti-virus, anti-spyware, firewall.

Replaces a Dell "lemon"
After having a different Dell Inspiron for less than 4 months that was a total lemon, with the help of a Dell authorized shop, Dell finally replaced it with the Dell Inspiron 1564. For the most part, what I use it for it is very good, especially compared to what I had in the past. I don't like the idea that the warranty didn't start at the time I received my new computer, but that's how Dell works & has nothing to do with the way this laptop functions. I think my biggest complaint is the location of the USB ports-all of them down way too near the bottom of the computer. I use a cordless mouse and when I plug my printer into the USB on the right, the cord is in the way of my mouse, aside from buying a new longer printer cord for my printer or buying a new printer(this one is less than a year old) I have no really good solution.

Best computer quality/price !!
I bought it for the price and specs and it turned out to be perfect for me. I use it for home and for work aswell with design programs and never had any problem!. The numeric key pad is a great help for working with Excel. The widescreen 720p HD its great for watching movies!!

Great Computer
I received the computer on the day Amazon gave as the delivery date. Easy to transport with fast speed. Love the web camera and video. With just a little practice, microsoft 7 is easy to navigate. I would recommend this computer.

very happy!
I have been looking for a new laptop for a couple of months. I needed the best price for a laptop that suited my business needs. This turned out to be just right. I needed the large HD and lots of memory. However, I lug it around a lot, so it had to be pretty light-weight. Dell has good support, the price was good and setting it up was so easy and almost automatic. If I had to buy again, I would buy this computer. Special feature: Very few laptops have a keypad, so felt lucky that this one included it.

Nice computer!!
It's been over a month since we bought this computer, we have not experienced any problems. The 9 cell battery is a big plus. We would recommend this product.

Buy Cheap Lenovo U150 Laptop 11.6-Inch (Black) with Free Shipping

The ultra low voltage dual core cpu is excellent, much better performance than a netbook, yet really low on power consumption. The first thing I did do was double the memory for improved performance. It came with a great balance of software even though it was geared much more for business use. Network performance it good, I haven’t run into any wireless networks I couldn’t connect. I regularly use it for streaming video without issue from the web. The images are sharp and crisp, the video smooth. While the display is glossy, I have found the glare really reasonable compaired to other computers having a similar screen. Access to the hard drive and memory is fast and easy, making simple to upgrade.

The screen itself is pretty good LED but also a bit shiny. I had a shiny screen Dell 700M prior to this and Dell got it right. Shiny but not overly reflective. Lenovo went overboard. I’m also searching for an anti-reflective film for the screen. I generally don’t find the lack of an on board DVD drive a negative. I either install software program via network or a USB drive. For movies, I use something like Handbrake to cnvert and put them correct on the difficult drive. It will save your battery when traveling not utilizing the DVD.

BE Free WITH BREAKTHROUGH PORTABILITY: The future is now, and you can carry it wherever you go. Thanks to the combination of an Ultralow Voltage Celeron processor from Intel and also the latest technologies from Lenovo, the ultra-thin IdeaPad U150 notebook features long battery life, is just .5″ thin and weighs just 3.31 lbs, yet it delivers a brilliant Windows 7 encounter. With Windows 7 Lenovo Enhanced Experience certification, the U150 functions fast boot and shutdown, rich multimedia capabilities and simple system maintenance tools. Best of all, it’s from Lenovo, makers of the award-winning ThinkPad notebook.

A great little laptop for the money
I had a standard netbook with a 10" screen I received as a gift last fall, it was small and compact but at the time I was doing a lot of writing on the laptop and found the smaller screen causing me neck pain after long hours of use. I researched and ran across this Lenovo Laptop. While it was a bit larger that I would of liked, it was actually lighter, thinner and I am getting 6-7 hours of battery life which is double the netbook, which had an extended battery. The screen resolution is great. While I am not fond of the case styling with it's web like desgin, it it solid and functional, the textured surface makes it feel more secure when I carry it.
The ultra low voltage dual core cpu is great, much better performance than a netbook, yet very low on power consumption. The first thing I did do was double the memory for improved performance. It came with a good balance of software although it was geared more for business use. This included a trial version of the Office full business edition and SQL server 2005 express. Additional software included a face recognition security software. I went through and removed the business applications I didn't need and reloaded it with just what I wanted. The HDMI port and the eSATA connector are a great addition, add the hot swap dock available elsewhere on amazon and you have a very fast and versatile external storage.
Network performance it good, I haven't run into any wireless networks I couldn't connect. I regularly use it for streaming video without issue from the web. The images are sharp and crisp, the video smooth. While the screen is glossy, I have found the glare very reasonable compaired to other computers with a similar screen. Access to the hard drive and memory is fast and easy, making easy to upgrade.

Finding carrying cases is a bit harder than with other laptops. It took several days before I found one that was compact, but had enough room for accessories. I have to mention the power supply, it is small and compact AND they give you a long and I do mean long power cord, you don't have to worry about reaching a plug when you want to work while recharging. Most computer manufacturers seem to be into short small cords that are not very practical. I own two lenovo laptops now and my three computers at work are all lenovos they are a decent solid work horse, I highly recommend them as a brand and especially this 11.6 inch model, it is a great computer for the money. I carry it everywhere I go, and use it every day.

Almost perfect
I wanted a computer a little bigger than a netbook with better graphic for watching video and the occasional photoshop or CAD project. I bought this in March direct from Lenovo with better specs than what is being offered here, but also for a little more money. The build quality is great, battery life very good (4+ hours), and the aesthetics are mostly spot on. The only thing I do not like is the shiny black bezel around the screen. So much so I'm actually thinking of trying to apply some type of anti-reflective film or even plain to the surface. The screen itself is pretty good (LED) but also a bit shiny. I had a shiny screen Dell 700M before this and Dell got it right. Shiny but not overly reflective. Lenovo went overboard. I'm also looking for an anti-reflective film for the screen.

Otherwise, the keyboard is great and the touchpad, although different, works pretty well after you tweak the settings and get used to the textured surface. I don't use the pad all that much because I hate smaller notebook touch pads overall and use a notebook mouse whenever possible. You can find a USB or eSATA drive for 50-75 bucks if you look. I generally don't find the lack of an on board DVD drive a negative. I either install software via network or a USB drive. For movies, I use something like Handbrake to cnvert and put them right on the hard drive. It will save your battery when traveling not using the DVD.

Is it perfect? No. But it is built far better than most of the netbooks and is capable of more. All and all, a winner.

Buy Sale Compaq Presario CQ61-410US 15.6-Inch Laptop (Black) with Free Shipping

I am not a pc geek so will skip the technical mumbo-jumbo and give the laymans review It works great. Ive had it for a couple weeks now and I have no complaints. Everything runs fast and smooth. The moniter is big and bright and clear. For what I do it functions great. Also, I gotta say that I love Windows 7. To me it is a large leap forward from my previous operating system Windows XP.

I was looking at laptops twice the price when I saw this one pop up on the best sellers list for Amazon. The only difference between the higher cost notebooks and this Compaq is that it doesn’t have a webcam or 4 GB of memory it only has 2 but is expandable to 4. You can’t get a better laptop for that price. Very happy with my purchase!

I think this is a decent computer for that cost but remember that you get what you pay for. I would love this computer if it weren’t for that fact that the battery sucks and the speakers are truly low. Rather than the 4.5 hours of battery life advertised. It’s truly maybe 1.5 hours prior to you need to plug in the charger. The speakers are kinda low which makes it frustrating to try to watch movies or video’s.

Best. Laptop. Ever.
Let me start out by saying this, my brother has a macbook and when he saw my new computer he was jealous. It's fast, the screen quality is perfect, it's got the extra number pad (which is very convenient), and Windows 7 runs great! The only thing I wish this laptop had is a webcam. But really, try finding a better laptop for this price. I am very pleased with my purchase and HIGHLY recommend it to everyone!

Not too good.
I purchased this laptop 2 months ago, but have not really used it much. I encountered 2 blackouts already. Even after shutdown and cold start, it didn't come back. Have to wait for long while and it recovers itself. Not sure what problem caused this. If I am still in the returning window, will definitely want to return it. I like my HP laptop better, without blackout for no reason.

works fine but heats up too much
Considering the price, this laptop works fine for my needs/wants (i.e., word processing and watching movies) but, as others have mentioned, the battery and A/C adapter get too hot much too quickly. Also, battery life must be about 30 minutes!!! I hardly ever use it without the A/C adapter. Wish I knew that before purchasing it; I would have gotten a more expensive brand/model.

Compaq
I bought a Compaq F755 laptop 2.5 yrs ago and it was good.Decided that i needed a new laptop that was not very expensive and Compaq/Amazon met this need once more. The CQ61-420 is operating fine. I'm able to run Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X on it while my Bitdefender does a deep system scan. Really Good buy. Thanks Compaq and Amazon.

Everything you'll need in a computer.
This computer is amazing. The cpu is amazingly fast, I'm able to run many multiple programs at once and the only lag I've seen was while 3 videos were loading and the lag only lasted for 5 seconds tops. But I'm able to run HD videos with no problem and this computer has a great sound mixer. The speakers aren't quite that loud tho unfortunately. This computer will also run a game like Left 4 Dead with no problem. I don't own any other computer game to test it on, but anything equivelent or older than Left 4 Dead will work perfectly fine. At the price this whole thing goes for, I'd say this is the best computer you will find out there for this price. I've done benchmarks and compared, you won't find anything better at this price.

so to wrap it up in pros and cons..

Pros:
-amazing 720p screen with HD video experience
-video card will allow you to play games up to the equivelent of Left 4 Dead
-Keyboard is easy to type on
-3 usb ports make it useful for the average person
-Windows 7 Premium is about the best OS I've seen and it makes tasks much more easier and enjoyable (look up reviews on it)
-very fast processor
-with 250GB memory and 7200 RPM I was able to download 4GB of memory off of a CD in under 7 min!
-moderately light weight
-boot up time takes around 30-40 seconds
-16:9 screen
-lots of RAM

Cons:
-scroll on the touch pad is a little sluggish when trying to scroll long lengths

That's about it. I love this computer. Now if you're a serious gamer and you're looking for a nice computer to play your high frame rate games, this computer won't play them. Sorry to say, but for gamers, you'll have to spend atleast a 100$ more for a better video card.

I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPUTER TO ANYONE! Buy it, you'll love it!

Best Price Toshiba Satellite U505-S2005 TruBrite Laptop 13.3″ (Black/Brown) with Free Shipping

I love it. Have it had it for about a month. The only negative is the short battery life, but when you look at the lightweight portables with longer battery life their batteries are twice as heavy. I wanted a lightweight laptop above the netbook size for everyday use that was quick. This is it. The display is bright, it is quick, easy to set up, 500 GB HD, 4MB, i3 intel core. Is it perfect? No, but for the price and the features, too since the weight, I couldn’t discover much better. Also, Toshiba has reputation for being durable. I took it on a recent trip to Spain, utilized local outlets, had no problems with it, works like a dream, especially compared to the clunky Dell Latitude I was utilizing prior to.

Superb performance. Very stable and steady. NOt hesitating also as quick as I wanted it. Toshiba has done a truly great job with this laptop computer, its quick, the screen is really great in its clarity, wireless its superb, I get good reception, where my wife laptop computer doesn’t I’ve yet to encounter any difficulties, but I’ve not had it for long so we’ll see. For now great.

love it
I bought this laptop nearly 6 months ago. It's been great. The battery lasts about 3 hours - while I surf the internet and watch streaming video, or play games. The touch screen works well, though it could stand to be a little more precise. I use it for scrolling.

My only complaint is with Toshiba's bloatware. Their dvd program interferes with Windows Media Player, causing it to freeze. I had issues with sound when I hooked this up to my tv and it was Toshiba's speaker program interfering with my tv's built in speakers.

It feels nice and light, although it is a little thicker than I expected.

Decent laptop, but Screen Broke and Toshiba won't help
So I bought this laptop as a replacement to my previous laptop, an older satellite, whose screen broke during a trip. I was happy with the quality of computer I got in a small package for the price. But then within a month of having the new one, the screen broke when I opened the Computer and Toshiba would not do anything about it. Luckily for me, I had purchased a Sqauretrade warranty, and that covered the broken screen, however, If I had not, I would have been out about 0 to fix the screen. So I guess I am saying that If your screen holds up, it's a pretty good cpu with allot if features in a small package

confusing amazon description
The top pictured description shows a slot loaded dvd player. Then down below the other pictures shows a tray ? What gives. Confusing descriptions!

Perfect!
I have used a Toshiba Portege M300. Very happy with it. Now i got this Satellite U505 S2010 touch screen. Its PERFECT!!! Its not dim as the other reviews stated, just right!

Following I got it I booted Windows to make sure everything worked, then I installed Ubuntu 64bit. Every thing works pretty great although I haven’t tried to use the webcam, the only problem is the wireless drivers which causes the connection to stop working or disconnect randomly.

Like the laptop computer so far. Definetly worth the price Pros Sound,dolby digital Cons display.something wrong.Not impressed Overall pleased with the purchase Amazon’s shipping is very impressive. I received the product in 15 hrs.

I am very pleased with how the computer functions. It functions excellent for my Guild Wars. I truly don’t have any difficulties with it, except it being a PC and needing all these programs to help the registry issues and watching for viruses and spyware, but I’ve AVG installed and that appears to be working well.

The laptop is quick with 4 GB RAM,the HD is big 500GB and although this particular model with 15.6 inch screen and full keypad with numerics might be a little heavier than some other models it’s still light enough to carry around without having a issue. Getting wirelss built in has been wonderful. It appears much more dependable than wired and may be without having problems. I in no way had that prior to and now I see why more and much more individuals are turning to wireless.

Acer Notebook
After suffering bad luck with my previous 2 laptops from a well-known mfg., I'm glad that I had the good sense to return to Acer for this product. I purchased it thru Amazon and got excellent value for the price, the delivery was prompt, and I've had zero problems to date. It is easy to get up and going with this laptop, and it is not packed with all sorts of extraineous software and "trial" product interuptions. I highly recommend Acer laptops and letting Amazon have the business.

Love it!
I love this laptop. It's great for school and all my music. The price is awesome for such a good quality laptop. I couldn't find anything else that even began to compare to this deal.

So far, so good
I wasn't so sure about this laptop when I first opened it. The keyboard is a little different from what I am used to, and I didn't expect the slide to unlock it, but it did not take long to get accustomed to it.

My only complaint so far is the noise made by the CD/DVD drive when it is active. Since I only use that about 4 times a year, it is not a big deal to me.

I purchased this to replace a desktop. It is working out fine so far - no problems. I love Windows 7 compared to Vista and there wasn't a lot of extra stuff loaded on. I have been using it for a little over a month. I would say it is a great little computer for all the basic needs.

Excellent Price and Excellent Performance
Acer AS5542-5547 15.6-Inch Laptop (Blue)

I bought this computer in replace of a Toshiba with a Turion X2 TL-62, is a very good upgrade with a Great Sound, great graphics and huge HDD, and I upgrade to Win7 Pro 64bits.

HDMI interface is a great upgrade to me, I can see the last episodes of K-On!!! :-) with full HD, and episodes of EVA 1.11 and 2.22 runs great!!!

You can play games with a very good performance like Transformers War of Cybertron, Street Fighter IV and the old games runs smooth like GTA San Andreas, Ghost Recon Modern Warfare.

Also the VMWare Workstation runs without problem, I run virtual machines with Red Hat 6 and Windows Server 2008 (simultaneous) these machines runs like in physical hardware.

I'm very happy with this laptop and price, performance, capacity, video, sound quality this is the best choice for your money.

Great Lap Top!

Gateway EC1457u 11.6-Inch HD Display Red Laptop – Up to 7 Hours of Battery Life Review
This took some hunting on Amazon because they do not appear when you run a filter, ultra-portable: slim and lightweight, this sort of thing. The basic specifications I wanted was 11-12 inch screen, dual core processor, and less than 3.5 pounds. E ‘come down to this, the Dell and Toshiba. Dell seemed to have a problem with the 6 cell battery which protrudes at the base. The Tosho only came with 2GB of memory. This has a 500GB HD and 4 GB of memory, basically a full specification than anything else is around. The 6-cell battery fits the profile of the computer perfectly. The keyboard is nice. The screen is beautiful. The mousepad is good once you get the hang of it, is the same as any other laptop of this size. Best of all it weighs just over three pounds. I just spent the last week to say goodbye around London and did not know what was in my bag. Happy with my purchase. Highly recommended.

Toshiba Satellite L455-S5009 15.6″ Laptop Windows 7 Home Premium Review
The Toshiba Satellite L455-S5009 laptop is a great everyday. It packs more than enough power for their work. The video card does not allow much gameplay, but not a gaming laptop. For everything you get inside, the price is only fair. Shop around to find an agreement, I have seen him go from a minimum of $ 399. I’d be happy to recommend this computer to anyone in market for a new laptop.

MSI A5000-222US 15.6 inch Notebook Windows 7 Home Premium Review
I’ve been in the computer business for just about 10 years. When it comes to buying products that I sell, be it Desktops or Notebooks you can trust MSI. Why I trust them is because MSI is a leader in Motherboard Technology. In fact most of the Computer Systems out there have an MSI Motherboard inside. Just because it has another name brand stamped on the board, it might be an MSI. The MSI A5000 has been one of the most sought after models I’ve seen in the last 2 years & I’ve sold a lot of Notebooks over that time period. With LED becoming the new standard with Notebook display’s you can’t beat the price on the A5000. Not only is LED a power saver [which is important for Notebook user's on the go], it is the next generation in Notebook Display. Not only does it give brighter picture, LED Back light Technology gives beautiful, clear & crisp viewing. The HDMI ensures quality you can get for both your Audio & Video. The HDMI output sends this remarkable viewing to your Projected or TV. Last, MSI’s ECO Engine delivers to you the best in Smart Technology, if it’s Document, Presentation, or for Entertainment, MSI is leader in today’s Digital World. Thanks for taking the time to read my review & I hope that I was able to help.

Acer Emachines Laptop E725-4520 Intel T4400 Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Review
From eMachines was taken by Acer, who run what I like to call these sales sneak attack. There is no warning and no way to really find unless you are running this ad on Wal-Mart or Best Buy, but usually by then its to late. This is an awesome deal, acers are great, some of the laptops here in the last year or so have been less than stellar, but still sell large and last long. Reason is that it has taken everyone by storm with the netbook, and then bought out eMachines and Gateway, so I think we lacked a bit ‘in your machine. So on this, I got this from Wal-Mart for 298, which used to have one with the Celeron 900, which was surprisingly fast and hard to beat. Well, it was defeated, the price on that rose to 349, even 449 in some cases, this probably will. He has a great processor, even if its soul in age, that its Double (dual core), great for multiasking or whatever u want to do really. Upgradeable to 4GB is great, but I find 3 to be totally sufficient. I also have a desktop gaming superpower, so do not really need much more. So yes this can not be beat for $ 298! So check out the shops before disappearing, as I said at the moment they hit the site that are usually gone. I am writing at this time outside using my wireless and works perfectly, no drops, nothing slow downs! DVD burning is great, with the recovery disk in about 45 minutes. The speakers are small but strong. And the screen is very bright and easy to see even here in the sun. I had many people who own Dells, HPS, and Toshiba and say this is definitely still there favorite to use, even professionals. I work on computers and I must say I’m really impressed and I can snag another to keep for backup, for another day or another person. Do not miss this, you’ll miss out big time. Students in particular, its perfect for mobility. Btw the battery life now is about 3 hours and 25 minutes, and I’ve been here half an hour!.
