Lenovo's G550 tries to combine ThinkPad build quality with consumer-friendly features, but it's a disappointing mix...Lenovo’s iconic ThinkPad range has become synonymous with high-quality business portables, and with its Value line, it's attempting to recreate that success with keenly priced consumer models such as the G550...A subtle grain helps to make...

Lenovo G550 Review
Almost tough enough to stand on Textured interior and exterior finish hides smudges and fingerprints Comfortable and solid keyboard...Missing features from previous revision...The chassis is constructed entirely of plastic, but where most budget notebooks might feel flexible or flimsy, the G550 feels like a solid block of sturdy material...Somehow squeezing the palm rests on the G550...

Lenovo G550 review | Expert Reviews
Lenovo's G550 is one of the cheapest laptops that we've ever seen, but you wouldn't know it from looking at it...The core specification of a 2GHz Pentium Dual Core T4200 and 3GB of RAM are pretty much what we'd expect at this price and managed an acceptable overall score of 56 in our benchmarks...At 2.5kg, with a battery life of just over four hours, the G550 is...

Lenovo's iconic ThinkPad range has become synonymous with high-quality business portables, and now its Value line is trying to recreate that success with keenly priced consumer models...A subtle grain helps to make the G550's silvery-grey plastic look like brushed metal, and the curved edges initially dispel any comparisons with the square-jawed ThinkPad range...The 2.2GHz dual-core...
