LDLC Venus PW35

Very good product. Very good service LDLC

I received this computer yesterday, and immediately set about installing a Linux on it, after the LDLC technicians had updated the motherboard (which I wouldn't have been able to do myself!). I was a bit scared when I discovered the BIOS which was unlike anything I've seen before, but with a bit of thought and patience I eventually figured out how to boot on my USB stick. The installation of Kubuntu was then done without any problems.
And I took my computer to work today: it's light, boots up quickly, and has a good battery life (but not as much as the technical description says), which is what I wanted, so I'm quite satisfied!
And today, I received in a separate package the case that came with the purchase of this laptop: it is perfect for the secure transport of the computer, my hard drives, the power cord, a mouse... and some student copies!
I would like to thank the LDLC staff for their support, which I have been bothering with my repeated questions by chat, email and phone: I have always been dealing with real professionals, friendly and understanding to boot! Thanks to you. I have already advised several colleagues to buy from you, I will continue.

Very professional product advice, fast DOM delivery, very happy with my order

Very professional and informative telephone advice on the choice of laptop and mouse. Good advice. I was very pleased with the quality of the product and the service. I had read reviews saying that the case is shipped in another package. I was very surprised to receive everything in one package (having spoken with the advisor about the customs issue of the package with the case as a gift, I was pleasantly surprised to receive everything together).Installation of Windows 10 carried out without any problem. Very satisfactory battery life in pure office use. I'm very pleased with the quality of the product and the service. Very pleasant matte screen on a terrace despite the strong luminosity due to the sun.

Lightweight and small

I bought this ultra laptop to go on a trip to do a little work (php web dev).

I installed Debian (even if it was a bit of a pain to update the bios). Everything works fine (well as I cloned the Debian of my desktop computer, I had a moment of anxiety when I had to teach it to boot with grub uefi).

Positive points :
- 16h autonomy (which I haven't put to the test yet) ;
- The weight: 1550 grams (charger + computer + cloth + a very tight cover in polyester fabric with foam that I bought in addition + a bubble wrap).

Negative points:
- the native resolution of 1920 x 1080 which makes it very small (changing the resolution makes the display a bit blurry, I didn't look for more for the moment);
- the right and left arrow keys are half keys, they are "split" with start and end, I find that absolutely unbearable, if I could replace them it would already be done;
- I still don't understand why each paper in the box is wrapped in an individual plastic bag, (not to mention the Windows drivers cd-rom), maybe it's like an electric pole, the more the better;
- Finally, the bios, I don't understand how they could make something so ugly with so few options.

Easy, compact and adaptable

Our daughter needed her own laptop for her 6 years of secondary school (Belgium) as young people are increasingly working with teachers via applications and programs such as TEAMS, and we chose this model of laptop, the Venus, which has a very long battery life, is compact (easy to store when you don't have much storage space in your room), is also very light and has good qualities to keep her going throughout her studies. We were of course advised by a family member who is a computer specialist, and the choice was not easy given the infinite number of good quality products on offer at LDLC, but we managed to make it. I am very pleased with the quality of the products and the service. I am very pleased with the quality of the products and the service.

Very good except ... the bios!

The PC seems to be very sturdy and light at the same time. The PC seems to be very robust and very light. It inspires confidence and works perfectly under Linux BUT it arrives with an obsolete bios that is incompatible with Linux (at least ubuntu and other debian).LDLC support has been efficient in helping us find a solution, but it would be easier to deliver this machine with the updated bios.
