The wife got a Lenovo Ideapad 310 for $325 a couple of weeks ago, and really likes it so far. Came with the 6th gen i5 intel, and I upgraded to the full 12gbs of memory. Has the touchscreen and I'm a little iffy on its functionality when it comes to MS Office.

I just received the Ideapad 510s. I have only had it for a day but I would say so far it will be fine for my needs. I only intend to use it for surfing, a little Netflix or youtube here and there, and an online routing simulator.

I was leaning towards the Lenovos after searching around.

I 2nd the Lenovo IdeaPad 510s but total was right under $600. Whatever you do I would recommend buying a solid state hard drive and changing it out yourself. Very easy to do and worth it!

I've been looking because I'll be getting a laptop in the next month. Here's my daily research material...
This website has a list thats updated daily with good laptop deals: LINK
There's also a subreddit for suggesting laptops that is pretty good: LINK /
Some guy has a really thorough list of laptop recs for gaming/general use/ultraportable at different price points: LINK /

Forget brand. Find the one with the best processor and RAM within your budget and go.

I don't know how soon you need it, I don't really use a computer all that much at home. Definitely, nothing that requires a workhorse or anything.
I found a like new laptop with the features i wanted for 200 online. Not refurbished, guy just didn't want it. Like a 500 unit just like new.
Check Craigslist and know the specs you want.

What the big difference in HDD and SSD and what would be a good stating point for RAM 8Gigs?
Posted on 2/12/17 at 6:54 am to IL Duce
SSD has a lot faster speed than a HDD, but they cost more and don't have as much storage.
For RAM 8gb is pretty standard, but at your price point it may only be 4gb.
