Lenovo G550
$549.00
Released July, 2009
The Pros:Solid construction for a budget oriented product. Textured finish, unlike the glossy finish many notebooks uses (attracts finger prints). Comfortable to use keyboard with no flex.
The Cons:Lenovo actually stripped some features from its predecessor. Touchpad have been changed to the cheaper, ALPS brand, not as good.
The successor to the G530, the Lenovo G550 laptop adds more power to the G series models of the Lenovo Valu Line. Along with increasing the speed and memory, the G550 also has a few upgrades. The G550 uses a Intel Pentium Dual-Core Processor and has 3GB DDR3 SDRAM allowing faster multitasking times.

Along with this comes the use of Windows Vista Home Premium. Those interested in graphics and multimedia will also be happy to know the G550 has a 15.6" display screen using 16:9 HD format. This makes viewing latest movies in HD easier as the horizontal black lines are no longer visible. The G550 is light, chic with choice of hairline or textured design and has a full-sized ergonomic keyboard. Unlike most laptops, the G550 keyboard also includes a number pad for added convenience. Whether for work, school or pleasure, the G550 will fit anyone's budget.
