HOLD ON IT AND DON'T SPEND YOUR MONEY

Only buy this laptop if you want to waste your money, or at least get damage insurance if you're willing to ship it somewhere in Texas, and who knows how much will have to wait for them to fix it. I've been using this laptop for 6 months now, the battery is terrible so there's nowhere to pull it out and never took it out. It's almost become desktop. But this is not the end of the story. After 4 months I started hearing a noise when I open it but didn't pay much attention and yesterday I opened it as usual and my loop finally snapped. After a bit of research I found out that this is a known issue with these laptops and has been described in thousands of comments. Just google "lenovo y50 hinge problem". It's definitely a manufacturer fault but they won't accept it - I called support but the tech rep said they don't have a problem with these laptops so they won't fix it. I'm very disappointed and will definitely stay away from Lenovo. This is not a cheap laptop that has such problems. But hey shit happens, at least they have to be honest about their mistakes with the customers they once trusted, as long as they care about their customers of course.
