Customers find value in the Yoga C630's large screen size, ease of use, and long battery life. Many appreciate its performance and lightweight design, along with its competitive price point and ample RAM. The positive feedback highlights its overall quality and suitability for various tasks. However, a common complaint centers on the lack of a backlit keyboard.
I’m kind of a screen nerd. like the screen on this one. Gets just bright enough. Color is excellent. Good contrast. I had the Chromebook x360 14 inch and found that display to be dim, drab and colorless. I hated it. But this one is enjoyable. I also like the bigger 15.6 size. Really expands your real estate when you go into settings and display and change the scaling. The speakers are meh. I do wish, for such a big laptop, why not put some good speakers in here? They're downward firing and don't sound great. Dialogue might be better than music. The keyboard feels and looks good but needs more travel but I’m getting used to it. The trackpad is very good. Very smooth and scrolls fast. Very responsive. Touchscreen is great but it does wobble a bit when you poke it - probably because it’s a yoga. The build quality is excellent. Feels premium because it is. Sleek and fits in a business environment. Performance: You won’t be able to slow this down. It’s got ample processing power and memory. Decent selection of ports. It’s also a helluva deal if you can get it on sale or open box. I got mine for under $500 open box. Summary: I really like this laptop. It makes a great desktop replacement. I setup my Windows desktop for Chrome Remote Desktop and I can remote into when I need to to manage it for Plex. I enjoy the quickness and simple interface of ChromeOS. I get sick of Windows and enjoy using other operating systems. I hope ChromeOS continues to grow because I believe in and support cloud computing. Great laptop!

Hello, I am totally sold on the Lenovo C630 Chromebook. When I first looked at it at Best Buy, I was basically looking at some cheaper HP and Samsung models, just to test out and learn on. But the Customer Service agent "Steve" did a great job of working with me and possibly giving me the feedback that I needed to make this purchase. I initially looked at the battery life as a concern because most of the cheaper systems were stating above 12 hours of battery life, while the Lenovo only showed up to 10 hours. After taking the product home, I guess during the first week or so, this Lenovo C630 Chromebook averaged over 12 hours every time. A few times I took screenshots, because it was getting all the way up to 17:30. That was when I forwarded my screenshots to Lenovo. I also went back to the Best Buy store and "Steve" was hoping nothing was wrong with the device, to his complete amazement, he was totally delighted to hear the excellent functionality of the device. The device is really fast and has a lot of features. I really did and do like the Bluetooth 4.1 option for me to hear other than the built in speakers. The speakers are okay, just that they are on the bottom, and an external bluetooth speakers just enhances the video and audio playback greatly. My only downside to this unit is, it does not come with a "Backlit Keyboard" and if you like your product the way it is out of the box, for heaven sake "DO NOT RUN THE UPDATE" !!! If you are into the Goth aspect, then it won't matter, but if you like the Clean setup that Lenovo ships the product as, don't click on restart for update. The Core i5 processor with the onboard 128gb of storage, and the I/O's upgrade ability of the Micro SD card, there is a lot of room for improvement. I recently purchased an additional 512gb sd card to put in it along with purchasing an external WD Pro Passport Wireless Storage Device, and an Altec Bluetooth External speaker, that synced right up. The setup is pretty much straight forward, and after a month I am super happy with this device. Like I said, if it had Backlit Keys, It would have gotten 5 stars. Enjoy

It’s a wonderful computer for the price but after about a year of owning it for college it didn’t hold. For example it would glitch a lot and it got a lot slower I understand things get worst as time go on but it got a lot slower. What I like about the computer was the size I like big screens because I watch a lot of videos and movies but the storage is not a lot. Overall it an okay laptop but if you want something long term I wouldn’t consider it.
