Lenovo G580 Review (Cheap notebook for work)

Lenovo G580 is an affordable, solid office notebook.




As in the title, Lenovo G580 is not a gaming laptop. Definitely. But we can't say that Lenovo G580 is a bad notebook.
So what makes it worh buying?

Let's take a look at it's hardware specification:

Ok, so basically Lenovo G580 is an office laptop. You can see that it has pretty good processor (Celeron or Pentium). There are no bells and whistles, but it does it's job. The best advantage of this model is... SILENCE! Lenovo G580 was equipped with really good cooling system. We can safely use it at night when everybody is sleeping. It's hard to find this kind of quality.

How about some video review?

Here's a quick official Lenovo G580 presetation:



Let's take a quick look at Lenovo G580 gaming performance:

low med.high ultra
Deus Ex Human Revolution (2011) 24.28fps
Fifa 12 (2011) 76.4343.4111.08fps
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (2011) 15.377.83fps

As you can see, you won't be able to play newest games. However, if you are a gaming maniac you can catch up and enjoy older titles.


Another important thing about Lenovo G580 is it's material quality. We are surprised that for 357.97$ you can get aluminum and very solid plastic and rubber. Big point for Lenovo.
