No, I would not recommend this to a friendHorrible Buy! Lenovo sucks!
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am never buying another Lenovo again. This is my second one, and while the first was much better, this current laptop constantly gives me Wi-Fi issues. I even had them send it to the manufacturer for 2 weeks, hoping they'd fix it, but it still disconnects from Wi-Fi while I'm working. This is horrible, Best Buy!

Ok laptop, low speaker volume
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Everything is great at the price point, except for speakers. Very low volume. Don't buy if you are looking to listen to music or watch movies. Great for light work and students

Posted .Hey Tleslie28,
Thank you for choosing Lenovo and for sharing your feedback with us.
Regarding your issue with battery life – there are many variables that contribute to shorter battery life. Thankfully, many of those variables can be adjusted. By default, the system will tend to give more speed when needed, which can sacrifice battery life. If you want to squeeze out more battery life, we recommend utilizing the Lenovo Vantage application that is preinstalled to adjust settings related to power and battery performance (to access relevant settings, open Vantage > Device Settings > Power). You can also take advantage of the keyboard shortcut, Fn + Q to toggle thermal modes and easily switch between prioritizing battery life or power, or even the best of both worlds.
We are glad to hear that your IdeaPad 1i is otherwise working great for you.
Please feel free to reach out to us should you have any questions.
Best,
Lenovo

Poor battery life
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don’t typically do reviews but I am very disappointed with the battery life on my first laptop. I know it’s a lower end model but it is advertised as up to 10 hours and I get 3. Just got off the phone with a Lenovo customer rep. who checked settings, ran tests and did what she could but basically said that’s what the life of that battery is.

Posted .Hi SteveY,
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are sorry to hear that the battery life you experience with your IdeaPad 1i has fallen below your expectations, and we apologize for the disappointment that this has caused you.
For context, the battery life advertised in the specifications and features sections of this product's description page is based on an industry-wide used metric determined by a third-party, MobileMark.

By default, the system will tend to give more speed when needed, which can sacrifice battery life. If you want to squeeze out more battery life, we recommend utilizing the Lenovo Vantage application that is preinstalled to adjust settings related to power and battery performance (to access relevant settings, open Vantage > Device Settings > Power).

Frustrating
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While I would love to give a glowing review of this laptop, I regret that I cannot due to the terrible experience I've had with the order process. I placed my order, expecting prompt delivery, but instead, I’m frustrated by the lack of communication. According to the tracking details, my laptop was supposedly ready to ship on December 2nd, only to be “returned” to Best Buy on December 9th without any explanation. In an attempt to resolve the issue, I called customer service, only to be told that UPS had returned the laptop because they couldn't ship it. How is this even possible, and why did it take a full seven days for this to be resolved? As if that wasn’t bad enough, I was then transferred to another representative who suggested I repurchase the laptop at the current price. I was told that if the price drops, I could get a refund—this makes absolutely no sense. I bought the laptop on Cyber Monday, taking advantage of a sale price. Why should I now have to pay more for the same item? I’m in desperate need of a new laptop, and because of poor communication and delays, I’m left with nothing. To make matters worse, I wasn’t even given the option to pick up the laptop, which could have been a simple solution. This entire experience has been disappointing, and I’m left with no product and a lot of frustration.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend$600 paperweight
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I can not stress this enough: do not get this computer. The piece of crap lasted just past its 60 day warranty before its main function became a paperweight. It’s constantly crashing, the blue screen of death, about 3 times in less than 2 minutes and it is brand new! Geek squad had been about as helpful as the computer at this point. I live in a remote area and need it for school so getting fixed has been nothing short of a hassle. I can't even get it fixed remotely and have to make several trips with time and resources I don’t have and at this point I’d rather just get a whole other computer. I wish everyone can save themselves the headache and just look at any other computer

Great Laptop with Poor Customer Service
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The product is good but BestBuy service was really one of my worst experiences. They did not provided me with power adaptor ( can’t imagine a laptop without power cord) because it was open box , nothing mentioned in the description that it will not come wirh power cable. They acted smart and asked me to return as they made it feel like doing a favor by giving discount on open box. I called customer care they said I should get power adaptor but of no help as she asked me to go back to store and again talk to the same guys. I purchase separate adaptor from Amazon which is working fine.

BB Sold me a Used Product as New/Hinge Issues
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Two 1/2 years ago I bought almost the same exact Lenovo IdeaPad @ BB, which is known to have Hinge issues -- mine did. I then bought this one as a replacement. What I received was a Used item although I paid for a new one. BB would not pay for return shipping nor did they admit they sent a Used item, although it was clearly in that state when received. Be careful with BB and, also, know that these Lenovo's have a known issue with the hinges breaking that is, basically, Laptop Death. Beware.

Computer review
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice computer. Nice screen and keyboard. BUT >> Rated 8 GIGs RAM. Acts like it only has 4 or 5 GIGs. If you Bluetooth stream music to a stereo and open another screen on the computer to do something else while listening, the music stutters to where it is unlistenable.

Horrible
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I definitely do not recommend this product, the battery lasts only 1h and 30 minutes after being charged at 100%. I bought this because my old computer was over 10 years old and needed to be replaced, however the disappointment was huge with this purchase. And now I can not go back because the deadline has passed. I do not indicate! Simply the computer works most of the time connected, if you need to take it to work and class, do not count on this without having your charger ...

Buy Something Else
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was not aware that in order to even use this machine one must log in to a Microsoft account. It's a necessity to get to the desktop. I never would have bought this thing at any price. About an hour after I opened the box on December 11, I went online to return it. After going through the usually useless chat bot and a real person who claimed that they already had the return and I’d see a refund in 2 to 3 days, I was told by another person that they arranged to have UPS pick it up, and was advised that I’d receive an email or phone call within 24 hours, with a caution to be sure to check my spam and junk folders. Still checking.
