Lenovo - IdeaPad 100s 11.6" Chromebook - Intel Celeron - 2GB Memory - 16GB eMMC Flash Memory - Black

I love my new chrome book. It is great for creating invoices, flyers and promotional cards. I am able to communicate with my clients instantly. System is very easy to use.

I bought this chormebook for my son school . He only had this chormebook for three weeks and charger broke. I went to Best Buy today talk to customers service they told me there is nothing they can do. They told me it's more than 15 days I told customers service representative they should stand by their products.They told me contact Lenovo.We are loyal Best Buy customers and also past few years we spent lots of money to purchased their products I can't believe they can't stand by their products only three weeks old. I guess we have to stop going Best Buy to spend our money.

This is my first Chromebook and I like the idea of cloud storage. I was looking for Samsung and Acer Chromebook, but the price of this Lenovo won me. Pros This Lenovo Chromebook is lightweight, small, compact, and a power horse. I am using this in college and I can do word documents and PowerPoint slide shows. The basics every college student needs. I can also download and view PDF files. Typing on this Lenovo Chromebook is great. The buttons are responsive and quiet. At first I keep on pressing the search button when I was looking for the shift button. However, I quickly adjusted. Cons My only complain is the fact that the trackpad is not as smooth as my 15" Dell laptop. I literally have to press hard on the trackpad for the command to respond. Factory warranty is only good for 90 days. What the!? Other Chromebooks have 1 year parts and labor warranty. This one does not. It seems like Lenovo is not fully committed on this Chromebook model. Overall, its a good Chromebook just be aware about the trackpad issue and warranty.

I bought this Chromebook because I was looking for something small and capable to tote around school. Browsing is fast and using Google Docs is a suitable alternative to my usual and preferred Microsoft Office on my over sized laptop. I live in a solid 4g area and I can use my phone for internet at any given time to make the most of my Chromebook. When I am at home I find myself using this product for web surfing or simple tasks needing Google Docs over my 17" laptop because of how comfortable it is on my lap (it is not heavy and it doesn't produce much heat). For a $150 I find this a decent buy and if this can last me at least a year before I transfer to the university then I will call it a steal of a bargain. CONS: 1) I had a few days where the Chromebook would log me off and it would continue to log me off when I logged back on. Eventually I notice that it was overheating in my lap despite not feeling hot. I simply solved this placing a book between my lap and the c-book. The days that this happened were exceptionally hot in my house and it may be only this that caused the Chromebook to misbehave. 2) For typing the keyboard is very effective and I don't recall anytime being frustrated with it. However, there are commands that take quite a bit to get use to such as instead of a caps button there is a search button. Still to this day I press that same button expecting to find the caps lock.

First off, you need to know what you're getting when you're buying any Chromebook. If you can't do what you want to do within the Chrome browser on your computer, or one of its many apps, this is not for you. Before you shy away from this, there are tons of add-on apps that will accomplish most tasks. Things like watching movies, remote desktop connections, and so on can be done on this, most of the time. If you need to do things like video production or use specialized programs that aren't available in the Chrome Web Store, than this certainly isn't for you. If you're still interested, this is a great little laptop. It is a great little computer to carry around with you for work or play. It has been very nice to take on vacations. Getting through the airport with it is a breeze. This cheap little thing actually runs pretty fast most of the time, mostly from not being loaded up with a ton of garbage like Windows is. The battery life is one of the best I have ever gotten out of any mobile computer. I could get a solid 8 hours of use and then some on a single charge. If I just periodically hope on it, once a week it may need to be charged again. It is very light and somewhat durable. None of my kids have broken it yet. It does only have an 11" screen, so things are going to be much small than the view of a 24" monitor like I'm used to. This is no problem for me, but just keep that in mind if you have trouble with your vision. Overall, I would highly recommend this product if it suits your needs!

Being a MacBook person I dreaded the thought of having to resort to something that wasn't apple friendly. But since I decided to go back to college online I wanted something newer that would just get the job done. And since my college prefers everything Google I decided to go for a chrome book. This one is by far the best decision I've made in terms of buying a laptop. It's affordable, does the job & its very simple to get used to. I've had it for close to a semester now, and with all the time I spend studying with my laptop it hasn't crashed yet (unfortunately expecting it to because the price is so cheap!). A couple of cons were that the caps lock button is replaced with a search button, but there is a shortcut to having caps lock so you don't have to hold shift the whole time. Also, it doesn't have a backlight to the keyboard. Other than that, this is a great pick for a new college student, especially if you're on a budget.

I purchased this computer for my 13 year old eighth grader. This computer is pretty light weigh & very basic. It is the size of an Macbook Air. UNDERSTAND THIS COMPUTER IS NOT WINDOWS BASED! This computer works on a Goggle based system. Other than surfing the internet you have to download apps. I saw the reviews but did not understand until the unit was received. Once you get to know the system (which is simple) this thing works great. This computer was purchased for my 8 grade child to use for school which, I was pleased to find out the school system is now using monitored Google based technology Apps to connect the teachers to the students. This computer is perfect for my 8th grader. I must also note Google chrome has its own software protection built in. GREAT BASIC COMPUTER FOR SCHOOL USE.

My brother suggested I replace my son's broken laptop with its Windows OS, and try a Lenovo IdeaPad 100S Chromebook. It does everything my son needs to do with speed and simplicity, and I can't thank my brother enough for steering us to the Chrome OS. It was a bargain and costs less than the repairs would have been on an old slow laptop. I am so impressed with the ease that he can surf the Web, create basic useful documents, and organize photos and music, I plan to purchase one for myself. I will get something with a larger screen so I don't have to use my reading glasses. I have an iPad Air, but when a keyboard is necessary a Chromebook will work for me better than the frustrating laptop (2 minutes to boot up vs seconds for the Chromebook) with Windows 10 I am using right now. As a teacher for 40 years I needed and used every Windows OS that came along, but now I want simple and fast, and the Lenovo my son is using provides that.
