Though my laptop is the K315M and i could not find to do the review It does not matter to me, as i am not in full knowledge what is in side my little friend. All i want to say is that After having a previouse laptop that was suposed to be the Brill of computers, it was never out of the repair station that we sent it to. Out of the year my husband and i use it i had it on my lap 2 weeks. In the agreement that returns can be exchanged if more than x2 in repair which it had been sent 4 times. We looked at the other laptops. The screen attracted us to this laptop and the style of the case. Then reading the info of the hdd and the dvd etc it seemed better equipped than the previouse one. As i am not into professional work then the hard drive space wasnt needed, the laptop was split for 2 drives on the DD. Ready set and loaded with the software i was worried that as my husband has problem with memory that he would loose or format the software. No problem as the backup is loaded as such that i could reload from backup that is always ready. icould even Delete everything and start again. The keyboard is soft but firm to use. No keys catching on the way down. Mouse plate is precise. Funny at first but you get used to it. I like how it hibernates and i can come back later where i left off. Getting back to the layout of the unit I feel its the most comfortable laptop i used 12 months on and i am still happy, as i'm still happy with my husband as he hasnt broken it yet. Its my friend- Reliable. It is used avery day. Cannot say the Name properly though oiva oh its upside down viao VIAO NOT MUCH BATTERY LIFE AND THE CATCH IS HARD TO USE ON THE LID
Initially, we were pleased with this laptop. The display on the X-black screen looks great and the laptop performs speedily.
The battery life is poor but we don't mind that too much as we mostly use the laptop at home, so are happy to use the power supply. The laptop is quite bulky and heavy, but once again this isn't an issue for us using it from home.
Our main issue is that over time, a few things have started to go wrong and we have become very ... ...left mouse button became "loose" - it still works, but it's rather annoying as it rattles around! The next thing to happen was a white "dot" permanently appearing on the screen - I'm not sure of the technical jargon, but I think that maybe a "pixel" has gone! The latest thing to break is the power jack - the power cable just falls out - the power does work if you hold the cable in at the back of the laptop, but as you can imagine this isn't very ...
