Abstract: We've finally arrived at the long-foretold future where gaming laptops can be slim and light enough to fit comfortably on your lap. Heck, even a non-gaming company like Lenovo has managed the feat. Lenovo's 2014 Y50 isn't quite as slim as, say, the 0.7-in...

Decent value, good mid-range GPU that can handle just about any game
Limited maximum screen brightness, fan stays on all the time, slightly dodgy trackpad
The Lenovo Y50 is a good-value gaming laptop, and a pretty aggressive competitor to other laptops in this class like the Acer V Nitro and the various MSI options around the price, including the GS20. Last year the Y50 was a bit of a dodgy option gi...

Excellent, unique design, Fantastic value, Pleasant speakers
Dreadful screen, Inconsistent game performance, Limited configurations, Short battery life
Save for the screen and somewhat limited computing horsepower, the Lenovo Y50 is a very good package for its $1,519 or £999 (about AU$1,631) price tag. In a field of laptops that focus on filling out an internal spec sheet and stuffing it into a flimsy p...

The Lenovo Y50 Touch has great style for a gaming laptop, plus a touchscreen, and it balances performance, size, and price to the benefit of mainstream gamers
The display suffers from poor viewing angles and the midlevel graphics card means you can't run newer games at the highest detail settings
With the Y50 Touch, Lenovo has created a reasonably priced, not-too-big gaming laptop that doesn't look like a throwback. But the most serious PC gamers may want to hold out for a better display and faster GPU....
Fast CPU and GPU, Slim for a gaming notebook, Loud speakers
Very low display quality, Finicky keyboard and touchpad, Short battery life, Runs a bit warm
Lenovo's Y50 is affordable and reasonably quick, but it does more to damage the company's gaming reputation than to enhance it. The system's unforgivable flaw is the display, which would be disappointing on a system sold at half the price. A low-contras...
Abstract: Finding a good gaming notebook is uneasy task especially when you start searching and come across all these models with different configurations and prices ranging from around €700 to more than €2000. However, in this article we will present two of the mo...

Abstract: Quite recently we reviewed the Lenovo Y50 (GTX 960M) and the Acer Aspire V15 Nitro Black Edition, both updated with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M GPU and both having nearly identical specs. You can read all about Lenovo Y50 (GTX 960M) here and the full Acer...

Abstract: A few days ago we posted our ASUS ROG G551JW (GeForce GTX (960M) review, a bulkier, but more affordable version of the G501. We decided to face the notebook against another device with similar, if not identical, specs – Lenovo Y50 (GTX 960M), a gorgeous n...
Stylish and premium aluminum design, Good keyboard with little setbacks, Powerful hardware for the money, Despite the heat, the area where palms rest remains cool, Great sound quality, Improved IPS panel over last year's model
The IPS panel still leaves a lot to be desired, Impractical cooling system, Inconsistent touchpad performance, No M.2 SATA slot
We were pleased with the overall design of the machine giving a distinctive look, premium materials while maintaining low weight (2.4 kg) and slim profile (24.5 mm). However, this notebook has its own drawbacks like leaving easily smudges on the exterior ...
