Just how good my friend...

Very good battery life, almost ultrabook level. Not very good gaming performance, but should be able to tune settings on most games and it would be playable.

It's good for the price.

As long as I can play games. I'm NOT looking for Ultra settings 60+FPS. This should do the trick. Its $570 dollars off right now.

I've owned the Lenovo Yoga "14 and it had really bad yellow backlight bleed. since then i've never wanted lenovo anymore, but i'm still searching for a "14 laptop aswell. isn't the backlight bleed a common problem with lenovo LCD screens? I mean that would be a big turnoff for the OP aswell I bet.

tbh if you want a good screen on a laptop you need to spend millions of dollars.

 

acer nitro is the cheapest notebook I know of that has a great IPS display.

Well.. i don't mean it needs to have a perfect screen. I mean my acer of 6years old has a pretty decent screen. but backlight bleed is a defect and unacceptable... which is common with lenovo laptops (and even my first lenovo laptop had it). If this issue is also with this laptop I would def not recommend it. 

 

Just imagine yourself watching a movie that is supposed to be dark, and you see yellow lights coming out of all the edges..
