With an in-depth look at the Lenovo Ideapad Y700, its time to look at the complete picture again. If you are in the market for a gaming laptop, and have around $1000 to spend, should the Y700 be on your list to look at?Let's start with the design. Lenovo...
Sharp keyboard deck edges, a large and distracting bezel, heft and a loud fan aren't enough to ruin the Lenovo Ideapad Y700 15ISK. Arguably, the keyboard deck isn't a terrific issue to have, but the other issues are the byproduct of a powerful mobile gami...
Beautiful IPS display, Solid gaming performance, Nice-sounding JBL speakers, Aggressive-looking design, Quiet fans, Almost eight hours of battery
Lackluster keyboard feel, Cumbersome touch pad, Merely average port selection
The 15.6-inch version of the Y700 is a winning gaming laptop at a moderate price, with a solid build, just enough pep for 1080p play, and very good battery life. Read More…...

Solid performance, well designed, great speakers, decent battery life for a gaming laptop
Keypad conflicts with keyboard, software pop ups from bloatware becomes annoying
Like I said in the beginning of this review, we loved the 17-inch model of the Lenovo ideapad Y700. The ideapad Y700 Touch 15-inch is no different. Unlike the 17-inch model, the Touch is a bit more portable, without sacrificing any of the performance. It...
Nice price for a powerful gaming and multimedia laptop. Fast quad core CPU, NVIDIA GTX 960M graphics
Heavy for students on the go, so-so trackpad. Port selection is basic
"Budget" and "gaming laptop" are rarely said in the same sentence. Lenovo is one of the few companies to offer a relatively affordable true powerhouse gaming laptop in this price range. Some call them entry level gamers, but they're really more powerful t...
The Lenovo ideapad Y700 is quite the capable laptop, though it limits its audience with its gamey design. Given that Lenovo makes no bones about the audience it is targeting — PC gamers — there's nothing wrong with that, and if you're in the market for a...
no major CPU or GPU throttling issues, fast display response times, no major backlight bleeding, improved build quality, upgradeable SODIMM RAM, M.2, and 2.5-inch SATA bays, quiet keyboard
end-user maintenance could have been easier, pulsating fan when idling on High Performance, limited connectivity options; no USB Type-C or mDP, no dedicated Macro or auxiliary keys, heavy for its size, limited color coverage
Lenovo calls its Y700 series the entry-level gaming solution that also doubles as a multimedia experience. When judging under this pretense, the refresh is a success as its core basics are excellent. Display quality is very good with fast response times...
Sleek design (even slightly improved) and robust construction that can take a beating for sure, Good keyboard and improved touchpad quality, Excellent sound quality (JBL stereo loudspeakers and a subwoofer), The screen doesn't use PWM above 58 cd/m2 (59%)
The screen isn't suitable for design work, due to the reduced sRGB coverage, The chassis attracts fingerprints and smudges
The Y700 offers the same sturdy, premium design with slight improvements around the edges, despite the ~200 g increase in weight and the slight thickness bump. They are hardly noticeable, so don't worry about that. We are still giving it an A+ in the desi...
pas d'autolimitation majeure du CPU/GPU en utilisation intensive, temps de réponse rapides de l'écran, qualité de fabrication revue à la hausse, pas de fuites de lumière importantes, RAM SODIMM remplaçable, baies M.2 et SATA 2.5 pouces, clavier silencie
maintenance encore un peu compliquée pour l'utilisateur, ventilateur bruyant au repos en profil Hautes Performances, connectivité limité; pas de port USB TypeC ni de miniDisplayPort, pas de touches Macro dédiées, lourd pour sa taille, couverture limitée
