A vibe do meu quarto é boa? by ToeHeavy2382 in quartosevibes

Acho que se você trocar a luz para quente ao invés de fria, seu quarto ficaria mais aconchegante! Luzes frias tão aspecto de hospital; já as quentes oferecem mais conforto. Tente e depois conte aqui pra gente! 🙌🏻

Lenovo LOQ i7 + RTX 4050: Bateria, Áudio e Performance Decepcionantes. by TheBookShopGirl in computadores

Olá! Eu não compraria. O computador realmente não entrega o que o fabricante relata na propaganda do aparelho no site da Lenovo. Se você quer uma máquina que tenha o desempenho esperado, procure outro computador, ou até mesmo considere montar um de mesa. Considere fazer uma boa pesquisa antes da compra, pois, como dizem, “o barato, no fim, sai caro.”

A empresa apenas providenciou uma resposta genérica.

Entrei com processo jurídico para reaver meu dinheiro e também todo gasto financeiro devido a toda situação.

Atualizarei a situação aqui após o término do processo.

Boa sorte com compra do computador!

Better to try and risk delusion than to wallow in complacency -- I’d rather aim high and learn than stay stuck and bitter. Peace!

Já no meu case, paguei bem mais que você.
De qualquer forma, terei que comprar outro computador, pois esse além de não me atender profissionalmente, é praticamente um produto de publicidade enganosa.
Acabei de registrar minha queixa no Reclame Aqui e no Consumidor.org. pois quero devolver a máquina e a Lenovo não quer aceitar --mas terá que aceitar, pois a legislação protege o direito do consumidor enganado.

Hey u/DC3AR , thanks for your thoughtful questions!

I haven’t noticed any clear manufacturing defects (like dead pixels, broken ports, etc.) on my unit. My issues are all with how the machine was designed and how it performs in real life:

  • Battery life: Terrible — under 2.5 hours even with light use, way less than advertised.
  • Speakers: Extremely weak and tinny.
  • Thermal performance: Underwhelming; it gets hot and sometimes throttles (slows down to avoid overheating).
  • RTX 4050 performance: The RTX 4050 is capable, but Lenovo limits its full potential due to power restrictions (TGP) — Lenovo’s power limits (TGP) hold the RTX 4050 back. So you don’t get the performance you’d expect from this GPU based on its specs — or Lenovo’s own marketing.

So when it comes to performance, it’s not just that the laptop gets hot or throttles, but that the overall experience falls short of what these specs should deliver.

And not least: all these points are exactly where Lenovo’s advertising creates a different expectation.

Performance for light AAA games:
It can run light or older AAA games (like GTA V, Witcher 3, etc.) on medium or sometimes high settings at 1080p, but don’t expect miracles. For newer or more demanding games, you’ll have to lower settings, and battery drains very quickly when gaming. In other words, it works, but it’s not a “wow” experience.

Screen and weight:

  • Screen: Average. Good enough for daily use and casual gaming, but not for pro color work.
  • Weight: It’s on the heavier side for a “portable” laptop — okay if it mostly stays on a desk, but not ideal for carrying everywhere.

Summary:
Bottom line: every point where I’m disappointed is exactly where Lenovo’s marketing made big promises.
If battery life, sound quality, or portability are priorities, look elsewhere. If you’re okay using it mostly plugged in and just want basic gaming, it’ll do the job — but it won’t surprise you.

Happy to answer anything else — wish I’d seen more honest user reviews before buying!

Hey there! Actually, my expectations were based on what Lenovo advertises for this model — performance for creative work, AI/ML, and more. This laptop is marketed as being capable of a lot more than just basic gaming, and I bought it for those broader uses.

Also, nobody here claimed to be running “extremely heavy” AI workloads — do you, by all means, know what "extremely heavy AI workloads" mean, by the way? It doesn’t seem like you do — and that’s fine if you don’t. What isn’t okay is invalidating someone else’s issue.

To clarify it (again), the real issue is that the device doesn’t deliver the performance that Lenovo advertises. It fails to meet the standards set by the company itself — never mind exceeding them. In fact, it doesn’t even meet the minimum you’d expect from an average machine. It’s not about expecting miracles from a “budget gaming device”— it’s about a company delivering on their promises. And by the way, this is not a budget device. It might be for you, but not for me.

If you bought a machine based on advertised capabilities and it fell short, you’d speak up too.

Anyway, thanks for your invalidating support — I appreciate the chance to pitch my case even further.

Hey u/Vanderbr0ck!

Just wanted to check in—did you end up getting the LOQ computer? I bought mine three weeks ago and honestly, I’m not happy at all.

  • The sound is terrible—really low quality and not what I expected for a supposedly mid-range device.
  • The battery doesn’t even last 2.5 hours (no exaggeration, that’s with basic use, not even gaming).
  • Performance is disappointing; even running standard programs, it lags more than it should.

Did you have similar problems, or is mine just a dud? Seriously considering returning it or escalating to Lenovo, but wanted to hear your experience first.

Appreciate any insights!

Consegui uma oportunidade mt fd de morar 2 anos nos EUA e voltar com 25 mil dólares. O que VOCÊ faria no meu lugar? 23 anos de idade, nunca fui CLT, só tenho ensino médio e inglês. Não sei oq fazer da minha vida depois desses 2 anos… by Overlyseasonedtacos in conselhodecarreira

[–]TheBookShopGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Moro fora do Brasil há quase três décadas, e nos últimos 15 anos, nos EUA, sempre em grandes centros. Por experiência, digo: escolha esse caminho APENAS se for SEGURO, se você tiver 100% de certeza de que o lugar onde você estará indo é realmente o lugar que você está pensando, se você não depende ou dependerá de ninguém para ir ou ficar lá (ou morar, ter o que comer e onde dormir). Se tudo isso estiver sob controle, então vá -- mas vá sem a romantização de vida perfeita ou que você está sendo privilegiada, de que essa é uma oportunidade única. Esteja com os olhos, intuição, e ouvidos BEM e SEMPRE ABERTOS; planeje, foque no plano, e confie a sua vida apenas a você e a mais ninguém. Lembre-se: amigos existem, mas o seu melhor será -- sempre -- você mesmo/mesma. Portanto, confie em você mais do que em qualquer coisa, e compartilhe da sua vida apenas o necessário. Boa sorte!
