Q: Does this have a camera built in? Also can it be used for social media without a problem?6
A: Yes, model number 81MV0001US has a 300p web cam built in. This is an entry level, light use system with its Intel Pentium processor. It is not meant for multi-tasking or demanding programs. It is good for Microsoft Office and light internet browsing, including Social Media. If this describes your computing needs, the IdeaPad S145-15 would be a good choice.
Q: Is the 4 GB of RAM expandable
A: Yes, the 4GB RAM is expandable, but not without removing the 4GB stick already present (ie, there are no open slots). The answer to this question given by the Lenovo Product Expert (reproduced below for convenience) is *incorrect*. The truth is that there is nothing soldered onto the motherboard, and there is one slot containing a 4GB stick of ram. Please have a look at my review (DNADoc) where I've added two photos of the guts of this laptop. I have personally added a 16GB stick of DDR4, and it was recognized perfectly. Again, the answer below that was given by the Lenovo Product Expert is *not* correct. "Model number 81MV0001US is not user upgradable. A certified technician must do all of the work, so as to not void the warranty. There is 4GB of RAM soldered to the motherboard. Additionally there is one RAM memory slot that can support 8GB RAM stick, so your certified technician can add 8GB to make the system total 12GB."
Q: can i use fl studio on this laptop?
A: Yes, you can use FL Studio on this laptop.
Q: can I use a wireless mouse with this laptop or does it come with a mouse
A: Yes a wireless mouse will work on this laptop, and it also has a built in mouse pad.
Q: Would this be good for a college student to do online classes?
A: Yes, Its very good for online classes
A: No, this is not a touchscreen model.
Q: Does this laptop have a place to put disks in?
A: No. Model number 81MV0001US does not have a built in CD/DVD drive.
A: Yes, model number 81MV0001US does have an HDMI port.
