Customers are saying

Customers praise the IdeaPad 1i laptop for its excellent overall performance, fast processor speed, and convenient touchscreen. Users also appreciate its ease of use, good battery life, and slim, lightweight design. The 8GB of RAM is adequate for most users, while the screen size is suitable for various needs. However, some users may find the memory limiting if they use many browser tabs.

    This little laptop is the perfect size to take back and forth to work. The touchscreen is a great addition and works well when I have used it. I have not had any problems with it.

    So far we are pleased with this product. There is till so much to learn in Windows 11 (especially after the leap from Windows7)! Great computer for those with limited acuity with technology.

    The laptop works great except it seems to be more frangile than other older models so users must make sure they use it in an area that prevents accidental drops/damages. But it is easy to adjust and program for setting up for college/work.

    Good value (when i purchased it). Came in S-mode, but was no big deal, easy enough to get it out of that. Runs smooth and quick. A larger hard drive would really enhance this. Came with Win 11 installed. Surprisingly not too much bloatware.

    It is the best laptop for someone who doesn't need a lot from a laptop. I had to figure out how to add some apps from the Microsoft store and how to add my photos to the laptop. Not the most tech knowledgeable of people, and I was able to do it!
