No need to be skeptical, Lenovo has the best build quality out there.
Just replace HDD with SSD. This is extremely easy on Lenovo laptops.

You are skeptical about the World No.1 Computer company??
If i am not wrong, they are the only company that is making some meaningful profits from computer sales. They literally own the Asian PC market. So what if it is Chinese? Look at Japan's Sony...they chickened out of the PC market...pu$$ies....

Lenovo does not make laptops for the high end gaming segment. It's a basically a business notebook manufacturer so I wouldn't consider it the best.
The best imo is Clevo and its subsidiaries.

You have to admit it that they rule the Asian market.........

Moreover in India only 3 companies provide you ADP.......... moreover only 2 provide you ADP + On site warranty (Lenovo & Dell)

Offer for today : Price 54k

Not FullHD display............

Still Z510 is better due to better GPU & CPU is of almost same performance

Dell tweaked with amd drivers too much and installing non-oem drivers( required to incraese performance significantly) causes booting problems. Besides undervolted processors suck.

HP envy is just overpriced.
