Very Good Laptop, a few quirks.
It should be known that I registered the default Windows OS it comes with to my Microsoft account and then immediately formatted the PC with Linux (Fedora). IT comes loaded with some vendor software that I did not bother to look at. Overall, it performs very admirably. I am quite impressed with it. Quick, decent battery life, touch screen with a pen is awesome. and it folds into tablet mode. What's not to love? It's a great ultrabook style laptop. I highly recommend it. For anyone considering loading Ubuntu or Fedora on this laptop from personal experience I can tell you I had a few issues I needed to deal with to get it working. Firstly, you will need to disable Secure Boot in the BIOS (WARNING THIS WILL ERASE YOUR HDD COMPLETELY!!!) to get wifi working. You can install Linux with it enabled but it will likely affect your wifi hardware and prevent it from working. The next thing, on Ubuntu 18.04 I had to blacklist a kernel module ideapad to get WIFI working, this was not the case on Fedora 29 (dunno why). This was accomplished by running the command sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ideapad.conf <<< "blacklist ideapad_laptop" The fingerprint reader does not work in Linux. Synaptic refuses to release drivers for it. Which I think Lenovo, being a supporter of Linux, should change hardware vendors in that case. The pen however works fantastic if you load on xOrg and not Wayland. Wayland is still to young to work properly IMHO on just about any device.

Fast laptop
It is fast and much lighter than my previous one. I use it for work. I use it to play games.

Nice laptop
Pretty good laptop. Definitely an upgrade from my previous one. Did have a few small dents/scatches on the side frame but nothing major enough to send back. Mostly satisfied college student.

Just what I needed and wanted
I wanted a great computer but not all the bells and whistles. This computer if even better than I thought it would be. The sells man really knew what he was talking about. I wouldn't have chosen this computer without him.
