Just Right ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Quality4 out of 5Value3 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5If you are someone who works for very long periods of time, this laptop has a very low battery life; 4hrs max, be aware. However, the device itself is very efficient, I personally use it for school assignments and projects and the casual Netflix and YouTube binging and everything runs very smoothly. The screen looks nice, FHD, easy to use, boots up very quickly aswell and I love Windows 10. The computer also looks and feels very well done and sturdy. The only other complaint is that the camera quality is poor, but that I can overlook, just really wish the battery would last a bit longer, but at a 420 dollar price point I didnt expect anything above average.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5This laptop meets the needs I needed in such a good price, that I do not regret purchasing it. Starts up quickly, whenever I shut it down it goes back to where you were last. Nice design wise, the light signaling the CAPS Lock and Num lock is good. Sure I lost the ability to play DVDs on the laptop, but thats what External DVD Drives are for. Of course there are Cons, and the only cons are ones that other reviews covered about the Webcam quality not being great. Obviously it isn't really a laptop for playing games. Not sure if I can count Windows 10 Home S as a con, as you can just switch to the Windows 10 Home easily. There's also a setting to show a bigger battery icon that has a percentage on it, kind of a small thing, but I like it.

Posted .The Lenovo IdeaPad 15.6-Inch Laptop, model number 81UT00EAUS, ships with a 2CELL_35WH_INTERNAL, Lithium Polymer Battery, with a battery life of up to 4 hours, depending on the work the device is performing. If you are only getting 2 hours of battery life, be sure Battery Conservation Mode is turned off. This power management setting is for laptops that are plugged in all the time. It will charge the battery to 60-percent capacity only to prolong the overall life of the battery. Here is a link to instructions for turning off Battery Conservation Mode:
https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/solutions/ht103159. If the Battery Conservation Mode is not turned on, then be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 10. Incompatible software will drain the battery at a faster rate. There is no need to install Microsoft Office software. The software is already part of the operating system, you just need to activate the software with a purchased product key. If you have installed a copy of Microsoft Office, this is conflicting with the existing copy on the system and this will slow your system down. If you have installed a 3rd party anti-virus program, be sure that Windows Defender is turned off and that the trial version of McAfee Anti-Virus software is uninstalled. There can only be one anti-virus program on the system. You may need to restore your system to original factory default settings if any of the programming errors have occurred. You can do that by typing "restore" in the Cortana search window. Just click on the magnifying glass icon at the bottom left of your Windows 10 Desktop. Click on "Reset This PC" Then click on "Get Started" and follow the on screen directions to restore to factory defaults. Finally, here is a link to tips for getting more battery life within Windows 10:  https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/20443/windows-10-battery-saving-tips. If the problem persists, we recommend you contact Lenovo Tech Support at: 877-453-6686.

With a few sacrifices there is more good than bad
|Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality4 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Where do I start, I’m the type of person who does tons of research before buying, it’s kind of annoying at times. Anyways I think Lenovo had to cut price on a few parts of the laptop in order to keep it at this price and I think they did a smart and awesome job. This laptop offers a lot for the money. (If a lot for you is the best minimum requirements for a good laptop). What I mean is most laptops at this price range offer 4gb ram this one offers 8gb ram ( technically 6 usable) which is more almost double than average. The processor is the minimum good processor when it comes to some gaming and video editing, the memory capacity of 256 ssd is the minimum amount of memory you want on a laptop to run well and have enough storage room, this isn’t a huge deal because you can buy an external ssd drive for extra room for about $130 and that’s about 1tb . Most at this price range only offer 120gb or less or more but HDD which makes the laptop slower, The screen resolution is 1920x1080 which is a really good resolution some $700 laptops don’t have this. And it’s full hd. Also two of its 3 USB ports are 3.1 generation which has double the transfer speed of 3.0 generation. Ok now The negatives of this laptop. The shell casing isn’t metals or a strong material it’s like a plastic but doesn’t look bad or feel like plastic, the camera is really bad but you can buy a usb Camera replacement for cheap , the mouse pad is not high quality it’s not terrible but it’s also not good, I put it on max sensitivity setting and it fixed this problem, I also bought a wireless mouse for $20 that’s much much better. The keyboard is actually really nice quality and have zero complaints about that. also the fans stay on but they aren’t loud even in quiet places. To me it was more important to get great computer specs than the outer shell or camera that hardly is ever used all it’s negatives can be fixed really easy, and for the price you just can’t beat it I’ve looked I paid about $350 on sale and I promise anything similar is if lucky $500 but mostly $700 range . If you want more than this it will cost more than $800. Conclusion if you don’t want to spend more than $600 then this is the perfect laptop and you save money :)
