联想G500s-59367693笔记本测评

便宜的办公笔记本. 新车型的联想G500s系列尤其是比以前系列的机型更薄。我们的测试样机的规格都正确:奔腾处理器,500 GB硬盘驱动器,Windows 8中,399欧元(约$527)。测试揭示是否只的情况下,缩减或如果用户拥有与其他削减生活。
Ivy Bridge Laptop / Notebook Windows

For the original German review, see here.

Cheap notebooks are a dime a dozen. With the G500s series, Lenovo launches a new series of such notebooks and follows the trend to thinner notebooks in the cheap price range. In addition, Lenovo continues to offer several cheap notebook series:

The review uncovers, whether the G500s is convincing. To see how it performs, we compare the computer to Toshiba's Satellite C850-1LX (Celeron 1000M, HD Graphics (Ivy Bridge)) and Dell's Vostro 2520 (Core i3-2328M, HD Graphics 3000).

Case

Wie wir testen - Gehäuse

G500s系列设有一个由黑色塑料制成。我们明白,所有的表面 - 除了显示 - 亚光。基本单元的上侧上的纹理有一个垂直的模式,并提醒拉丝铝之一,而盖示出了稍微有棱纹的纹理。后者增加了抓地力,但也容易受到指纹。相反,以前的型号的G系列,例如,G580或G585,的G500s是明显更薄(约8毫米/0.3英寸)。联想如下更薄和更轻薄的笔记本电脑的趋势。戴尔和东芝也使用塑料外壳,但与传统的高度。

超薄的联想电脑的稳定性应该会更好。基本单元(左和右的键盘,触摸板下方的左前角)压低普遍薄弱部位很容易与光记者的手指。可以观察到弯曲的基本单元从一侧到另一侧的加捻。盖子的稳定性是其他便宜的笔记本电脑看齐。它还从一侧到另一侧的加捻弯曲。此外,外盖的凹部大,导致图像错误。铰链紧紧按住盖子。如果缓慢而小心地打开盖子,就可以只用一个手打开盖子。

所有三个比较电脑提供了通常的连接功能。虽然Vostro成就只支持USB 2.0接口,配备USB 3.0的的G500s和卫星。然而,只有Vostro成就提供千兆以太网,而竞争对手只有快速以太网。接口布局的G500s是不好的。几乎所有的端口都在掌托的高度。

沟通

来自Atheros的所有G500s通信模块。 (AR9485)的Wi-Fi模块支持802.11 B / G / N标准。我们并没有观察到任何接收问题或中断,无论笔记型电脑是否接近路由器或楼下两层。谁知到了,联想只装备G500s,同一个不再的最新快速以太网芯片(AR8172/8176/8178-family)。如今,千兆以太网是根本标准。该笔记本还采用蓝牙4.0。网络摄像头的图像显得沉闷和泥泞,最大分辨率为1280x720像素。

饰品

配件包括通常的文件:快速启动海报,保修信息和安全信息。

操作系统和恢复

Windows 8的(64位)使用的操作系统。的Windows 8 DVD不包括在内。回收系统可以修复操作系统或恢复出厂状态。为了启动它,只需按一键恢复按钮(电源按钮旁边的小按钮),当电脑关闭。笔记本计算机将启动并显示一个菜单,其中包括允许访问BIOS设置。选择“系统恢复”。

更换预装的Windows 8与Windows 7应该没有问题。 Windows 7和8的驱动程序,可以从联想的网页下载。 ,正如你也可以购买G500s,没有操作系统,我们试图安装的Ubuntu Linux 13.04。大多数硬件包括Wi-Fi和功能键(亮度控制,音量控制)马上工作。但是,有一个小bug。显示屏亮度会自动变为零每次系统启动(包括安装)。由于显示屏仍然是黑色的,每次启动后,你需要增加亮度。

维护和升级

谢谢一个大保养皮瓣的,用户可以很容易地达到内部组件,包括硬盘,内存,风扇,Wi-Fi模块和CPU。 G500s设有两个内存插槽。由于其中只有一个是占用(4 GB),内存工作在单通道模式下。如果添加另一个模块,内存可以工作在双通道模式下。其结果是,CPU和GPU可以更有效的使用和性能将上升。

这是很容易更换硬盘驱动器。 7毫米和9.5毫米(0.28〜0.37英寸)的设备可以被纳入。的人都可以取出清洗。主管用户甚至可以更换CPU。



该G500s配备了一个24个月的保修。卫星具有相同的保修。 Vostro成就的标准保修依赖于供应商(直接从戴尔:一年;其他店铺:两年)。在测试的时候,我们无法找到任何保修扩展联想G500s。对于以前的廉价机型,联想提供了一个保修期延长至3年约70欧元(约$ 92)。

键盘

联想装备G500s的与非背光Chiclet键盘。主键是约15×15毫米。平整,光滑的键有一个短按键行程和独特的压力点。在输入过程中,特别是键盘的左侧,摇晃一点点。键盘是适合偶尔使用,但不能用于多产作家。

键盘是令人失望的联想和明显不如以前便宜的联想机型,如键盘B575e的IdeaPad G580。虽然键具有相同的轮廓,按键的G500s的薄,不再凹。因此,他们觉得更糟糕的触感。不幸的是,以前的键盘仍然是一个小的缺陷:回车键,退格键,右移是相当小。

触摸板

触摸板是10.2×5.4厘米(4.0×2.1英寸),并支持多点触控手势。手指滑行很容易超过其略微粗糙的表面。多点触摸手势,可以单独设置启用和禁用。两个鼠标按钮有一个短暂的旅行和明确的听觉和触觉反馈。

Battery Life

6:01小时G500s持续处于空闲状态时,卫星(18:24小时)几分钟Vostro成就(08:27小时)甚至超过两个小时的时间。我们检查的电池寿命,而闲置的手段的电池噬魂读者的测试最低的显示亮度和停用的Wi-Fi模块。负载下运行的联想,而只为1:09ħ卫星(1时44小时)和Vostro成就(1:33小时)运行的时间更长。负载情况下记录的最大显示亮度,最大的性能配置和激活的Wi-Fi模块电池噬魂经典测试。

G500s3:14 h后的WLAN测试结束。它需要30分钟的时间,直到卫星(3点47小时)进行充电。他们都无法跟上的Vostro(5时24小时)。在我们的WLAN测试,脚本会自动加载网页每40秒。节能配置文件的选择和显示亮度设定为约150坎德拉/平方米。 DVD播放已经结束后,3:07 h,第联想。卫星(2:59小时)看齐。同样的Vostro(17:24小时)持续两个小时的时间。 DVD测试运行节能配置文件(或更高版本的DVD播放不流畅),最大显示亮度和停用的Wi-Fi模块。

由于三个设备(联想:41瓦时,东芝和戴尔:48瓦时)的电池容量是不同的,其电池寿命不能很容易地比较。戴尔的荣誉:它实现了更长的电池运行时间比东芝使用同样的电池容量。

Verdict

Lenovo's G500s.
Lenovo's G500s.

The Lenovo G500s features a decent system performance, a fast hard drive and a two-year warranty. In addition, the case does not get hot and the notebook does not need much energy. The keyboard is not really convincing. Lenovo has already incorporated better ones. The contrast-poor display is also not a walking advertisement. Furthermore, the stability of the case should be better.

The Dell Vostro 2520 is suitable for those preferring a matte screen and looking for a long battery life for little money. The Toshiba Satellite C850-1LX is attractive if you demand a screen with the highest possible contrast.

We want to mention a further alternative: If you are looking for a notebook with integrated mobile Internet, you should take a closer look at the Terra Mobile 1512 (379 Euros /~$500). With antenna and SIM card slot, it is prepared for a UMTS-/LTE modem. You simply need to add a (cheap) modem. In addition, it features a big storage capacity (1 TB) and a relatively good screen for the price.
