notebookcheck is 1 of my favourite laptop review site.

Seems like Z510 is a not so easy to maintain. Just to add RAM or add SSD, you need to remove the whole back cover.

notebookcheck unit is US unit,
from what i see, no gigabit lan....
remove whole back cover i still can accept....

According to the review, yes, Z510 does not have gigabit lan, just fast ethernet port. AFAIK, Malaysia set is the same, no gigabit lan too.

I think u can try to ask garage sales seller. They might know. This model don't have dedicated thread in mobile computing.

kinda interested with this model as well. looking at several similar one such as dell 14r/15r, toshiba l-50, kinda dilemma in picking up

the price how much?

I bought these model last friday at PC Fair JB for RM2789. Spec i7 4700MQ, win 8 1TB HDD, 4GB RAM, 15.6" -1366 x768:matte screen non touch, backlit keyboard, ODD. They give free gift all in one HP printer, mouse and voucher RM100. For i5 i think maybe around RM2500.

i5 is around rm 2399,
please the review on the unit...

After using it, do give us some review.

CPUZ

HW Monitor

GPUZ-Intel

GPUZ-Nvidia

how fast is the boot up time?

I think may be around 20 to 30 second. HDD 5400rpm what do you expect but with Win 8, i think it should be smooth and 1 more think remove that free mcafee should make boot up faster. This anti virus really annoying compare to other anti virus like Avira. For those who like to OC, Z510 easily can be OC using Intel XTU software to 3.4Ghz.

how the battery life when playing video+wifi?
is the screen look yellowish / bluish ?
also can snap the pic for front + bottom?
and also the bottom stand rubber can easy to remove?
thanks

Is it the normal HDD or SSHD (with ssd cache 8gb)? I saw from notebookcheck it's sshd, but in techhypermart it's just Sata HDD.

Sata hdd for local set, may be ap set got sshd

my opinion, design not really ergonomic for gamer. coz mic n 1 usb port at lower part of right side. if u using mouse, u will feel annoying ur hand struck at that part (if u using headset + all usb port is used)

i not own z510, but s510p with almost same design

Just bought this laptop. Z510 i7 version.

i7-4702MQ, 4gb ram, GT740m, 1TB hdd with freebies a bag and a ciplak wireless mouse for RM2650.

The shop owner say don't register online first. He ask me to register after 1 week as the 1st week warranty is done by the shop. He said if register dy he can't claim.

I asked him is it the authorized reseller (that shop) will register warranty for us. He say don't need to register. Coz got serial number dy. He say I can try to register online.

But when I check the Lenovo support site. My warranty started on October 2013. When I check the box, it states that the MFD is on 24th October 2013. In Lenovo's site, the warranty started on 25th October 2013.



Is this normal? Or am I being sold a display set? I saw him open from a new box though. Before going my dad called the shop. The shop owner say they restock dy. But I scared he change the display set and this new set then reseal the box.
