It has an average battery-life of a little less than 3 hours. It supports a low-end hardware configuration. It has outscored the Asus U43Jc Bamboo for 3DMark 2006 and Maxon CineBench test. It is mainly because of the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470. The Asus U43Jc has done a little better across other tests. It has scored 3243 points in the PC Mark Vantage with 3122 points scored by the G565. In the real-world game benchmarks this Lenovo laptop has secured 35.84fps and 112.4fps, while Asus U43Jc has secured 23.67fps.Therefore the real-world game benchmarks contradict the synthetic game scores.

Our Take The Lenovo IdeaPad G565 is an average mid-range laptop and provides fairly good value for money. Its executive style features are priced affordably though it has bulky form-factor which can be a hindrance for office goers and frequent travelers. It gives an ordinary performance. Priced at Rs. 38,090 it can be considered a good buy.

Then you are allowed to start the Veriface biometric login profile creation by clicking on the video record button within the Cyberlink YouCam software interface. It takes several snaps of your face and stores them in a sequence, by scanning your retina and other facial features. Once the profile is created, it integrates the veriface profile into your user account, so that you could simply give a nice pose in front of the camera to login successfully. The interesting part is that, it manages to recognise your facial features, even with the glasses on, irrespective of whether you wore glasses during the Veriface profile creation or not.
