Lenovo Ideapad Y650

20 Jul, 2009, 11:57 am IST | by Dushyant Khilnani | Notebooks Notebooks

The Lenovo Y650 sports a multimedia-centric high-end feature set. Needless to say that it’s intended for people who are looking for an all-in-one portable entertainment package.

Applications
Watching movies on the crisp 16-inch display and listening to the pristine onboard sound is truly a treat. You can also directly playback using Blu-ray discs. To further enhance this experience use the HDMI port to connect the laptop to your HDTV or a larger monitor. HDMI allows connecting HD projectors while older models can be connected via the VGA port.

If watching movies doesn’t satisfy you, connect your cable TV to the built-in TV tuner. Storing HD movies requires a lot of space, but the 320 GB of storage is likely to suffice. Even transferring data will be faster with the eSATA port. Connectivity is offered via gigabit Ethernet and Wi-Fi N, which means faster connections and larger wireless coverage area.

 

Performance
The heady amalgamation of powerful hardware and high-end multimedia isn’t common amongst laptops. Also, the excellent overall quality of multimedia is a rarity. Considering these factors we’d say that the price tag is justified to a large extent.
