Well after Specification of Lenovo Ideapad 310 I can say personally that with NVIDIA 930MX which makes it Powerfull and Enables it to Play Games Like-Rise of Tomb Raider, Splinter Cell Blacklist, NFS Rivals, and many more Games like Outlast 2 can be Played on this Device. It can handle them but not at its Full Resolution, you can Play them but at Lower Resolutions.
The Laptop comes with Mcafee Antivirus Out of the Box and the Box Only Contains Power Adaptor with no other Cables or Mouse in it. You will also get a Carry Bag for your Laptop so that you can take it with you.
For general or daily use purposes it is a Great Deal as Ideapad 310 can hit that hard in this Segment. For Educational Purposes as well it a nice option to go with and for Projects to make.
if you want more then you can go for the Lenovo Ideapad 510 which is an Upgraded Verison of this One and has much more Power then this Baby or can choose HP PAVILION 15-AU114TX which cost almost around Rs.60K or $900, they both cost almost the same but the Brand value and the Trust Depend on you. Because "Buyer is the Buyer", you will get better Hardware Options on HP and Lenovo Ideapad 510 if you are a Gamer or a geek like me in these things.
The main difference which I have noticed between Lenovo and HP is there Keyboard, in the typing experience, HP takes the game because its Butterfly Pump Keyboard makes if feel Nice and Light during Typing. But HP's none of the Model comes in this Price segment where Ideapad 310 comes with these Specs, that's why I chose Lenovo for myself.
The display is good in both of them but you don't get a 4K display in any of them. No Touchscreen Capability but they all comes with Windows 10 Premium Version or you can Choose DOS version as well if you want.
Lenovo Ideapad 310 or Ideapad 510 Screen can be Rotated at an Angle of 180 Degree.
DOS Version will price you Lesser than the Windows version because it takes the price of Windows and none of them comes with Microsoft Office. If you want you can buy that Online or can purchase it at the time of your Laptop purchase which cost you around Rs.4000 Single Use.
Webcam quality is not too good in the Lenovo Ideapad, it says HD records but not so true. In this segment as well HP takes the ball in its hand.
For a better Gaming experience HP comes better but cost higher then it gives ad there are more options available in the Price segment.
Fan noise is not an issue in any of these devices but Lenovo starts Heating up if give it a Load or Try to Play heavy games with full throttling of CPU and Fans. Because air outlets are good still the device can't handle it because of 4GB of Ram DDR 4 and NVIDIA 930MX which are made only for a Light use.
Where HP comes with only DDR 3 Rams
The Lenovo Ideapad 310 or 510 both come with a DVD/CD Player inbuilt and support BluRay Disc as well.
One Feature of Lenovo Ideapad makes it out of the Race from others which is Reset Button, suppose your Windows get Corrupt or get Crashed then with a Help of a Pin you ccan Restore it Easily in just Seconds without a need of Bootable Device or Windows DVD/CD.
You don't get any Thunderbolt USB Port on these devices but they are VR Ready which NVIDIA says. The only Ports you will get on Ideapad 310 is 2.0 and 3.0 and on Ideapad 510 or on HP you get USB type C, Ethernet Port, HDMI, etc.
Lenovo supports Quick Charge but drains very fastly with heavy usage or on Playing 4K or BluRay Videos.
Battery Backup is also not very high on Lenovo Ideapad 310 but can give you a Backup of 3 Hrs with Single Charge in Continous Use.
The Device is available in tow different Colors-Black and Silver. If you want a Glossy look then you can for the Silver Color which has an Eye Catching finish and Looks in Hand or to Use rather then Black. If you are in US then two other Color Variant are also available there which are Red and Purple.
If you want to Upgrade your Laptop by putting External Rams and HD, then you can Upgrade any one of them by just removing its Back Panel which is easy to remove and to Upgrade. The only thing you need is a Screw Driver for that which fits in the Screw. The Ram can only be Upgraded to 8GB and HD Space till 1TB other than that.
Now I have told you about the Lenovo Ideapad 310 but let me just suggest you if you are in US or UK and reading this Blog then you can get better Options as well in this Price Bracket and get Better Specifications.
Like Dell, HP, Lenovo, even Apple and else. If you get any other better Deal then Type us at the Comment Section.
