Q: QuestionWhat is the battery life off the charger? I have a 4 hour class with no access to charge it during class and need it to hold up during class for notes

Asked 2 months ago by Afuller.

• A:Answer I think it really depends upon how 'hard' you're using the laptop. Just sitting around playing streaming music, mine can go for over 6 hours. But streaming video while also doing some spreadsheet or database work discharges the battery in about 3 hours. You could probably get 4 hours out of it if you're just taking notes with nothing else going on.

Q: Questionthis question is a bit silly but i dont know who to ask, is this laptop good for minecraft java?and mods?

Asked 2 months ago by butterfly.

• A:Answer Hey butterfly, No silly questions here! Based on the system requirements for the game and its mods, this laptop can run the software, but depending on how graphically intensive the mod is, you may see a drop in performance, specifically smoothness of gameplay, meaning lower frame rates for a choppier visual experience. If you'd like something that's more likely to knock your socks off when gaming with similar titles or just Minecraft specifically, we recommend considering our Lenovo LOQ gaming laptops that Best Buy currently offers.

Q: QuestionHi Would a dockong station be available for this laptop??

Asked 4 months ago by cARLOS.

• A:Answer Hey cARLOS, Since this IdeaPad 1i does not feature any USB-C ports to support the full functions of a docking station, you would need to use a USB-A dock in the laptop's USB-A 3.2 port to connect a dock for video output, and to gain additional ports. Please feel free to reach out to us with any other questions!

Q: QuestionAm I able to display dock station on the device (2 add'l monitor)?

Asked 5 months ago by moni.

• A:Answer Hey moni, Since this IdeaPad 1i does not feature a USB-C port that supports video output via DP Alt Mode, if you wish to connect two external monitors, you can connect one display via the laptop's HDMI port and the other via a USB to HDMI (for example) adapter that doesn't rely on DP Alt Mode for video output.
