    More details can be found on http://shop.lenovo.com/us/en/laptops/ideapad/700-series/700-15-inch/

    However, I couldn't find much info regarding the IdeaPad 700 series (it's different from the IdeaPad Y700). Does anyone knows why there is a lack of info regarding this model?

    Given its specs and price, I am thinking that it is one of the best value laptop that comes with latest i7 processor, DDR4 ram, decent graphics card (though GTX 950M might not be good enough to make it a gaming laptop but I only need the graphics card mainly for 3D modelling) and a SSD. Can't find any other brands that offer similar specs for the same price.

    Would appreciate if anyone could give me some comments and look forward if anyone could do a review on it!

    Thanks!
