Lenovo G430 t4200 comprehensive evaluation introduction:
Appearance design:
Lenovo G430 adopts a new mold design, and the boxy and simple shape makes the whole machine look very unique and clean. The A side of the top cover has an exquisite and dazzling piano paint design, and subtle horizontal stripes can be faintly seen, making it look fashionable and noble. In our impression, the G430 should be Lenovo's first notebook with a piano-like paint design.
On the top cover near the hinge, you can see the faint word LENOVO, which has a strong brand impact and a sense of belonging. This also uses a technology similar to HP's in-membrane printing (Lenovo calls it in-membrane transfer IMR technology). It is reported that the process difficulty and cost of using this technology are still very high, and it is usually only used in high-end brand machines. Type.
Interface design:
Generally speaking, the number of interfaces of Lenovo G430 is not abundant. , it only comes standard with the interfaces that should be used in conventional applications, and interfaces such as HDMI, e-SATA, S-Video, and 1394 are not configured. Of course, this is also related to the crowd positioning of G430. It can also further save the cost of the whole machine and make the layout of the interface more reasonable and clear.
On the left side are the machine keyhole, cooling air outlet, network card, VGA interface, Express Card slot/54mm, 2 USB interfaces. The cooling air vent is set on the left side, and the hot air blown out will not have any impact on the right-hand mouse operation; and the 54mm Express Card slot is of course also compatible with 34mm cards.
The interfaces on the right side include the Modem interface, USB interface, optical drive component and power interface. It can be seen that the position of the USB interface on the right side is a bit unreasonable, because according to usage habits, users usually plug in an external mouse on the right side, so if it is plugged in at the front, it will have more or less impact on the mouse operation. In addition, whether the Modem interface, which is close to being eliminated, is still viable depends on the user's application needs.
In addition to the two headphone audio input/output interfaces, the front end also has a multi-function card reader that supports MMC, MS, MS Pro and SD memory cards; in addition, next to the audio interface is a wireless switch. On either side are speakers. There is no interface design on the rear of the G430.
Keyboard design:
Lenovo G430 still uses a Thinkpad keyboard and a sturdy keyboard chassis Coupled with the excellent design, the whole machine provides a good input operation experience. However, compared with Thinkpad models, the workmanship of the keyboard has obviously changed, especially in terms of hardness and mute control, which is slightly inferior to the "original" Thinkpad keyboard, so the overall feel is not that perfect. However, compared to the ordinary keyboards of other models, it is still very satisfying.
The touch panel adopts a step-less design, so it will not trap dirt and is conducive to cleaning. However, since the material used has the same smooth finish as the palm rest panel, it will have a slightly sticky feel, especially when the fingers are wet, which is not conducive to operation, so the overall feel is average. The two auxiliary buttons at the bottom feel good and are easy to press.
In terms of function shortcut keys, in order to maintain a simple and clean body design, the Lenovo G430 does not come with too many keys as standard. It only has a power switch and a one-key restore key on the upper left side of the keyboard. The power switch key has been brushed, which is beautiful and also increases the feel of use; the one-key restore next to it is mainly used for system or data recovery when the system crashes. In addition to the system backup that comes with the factory, users can also use it by themselves. OneKey Recovery 6.0 softwareIt is very convenient to back up and restore the system or data at any time. Regarding the one-click restore function, we will introduce it in detail below.
On the upper right side of the keyboard is a row of touch-sensitive function keys, which implement mute, low volume, and high volume functions respectively. The one on the far right is a custom key, which can be set to open your favorite program or web page with one click. . These tactile buttons will light up with a light yellow light when in contact. They will not emit light and affect vision when in operation, making them very user-friendly.
