    I bought this laptop thinking it would be at least better than the other laptop that i had from lenovo but it really wasnt…. Don’t get me wrong it started up really fast (at first slow when i opened up the package but it worked its way up). But it gave me somewhat problems. For example i had a remote class that i needed to take but for some reason it glitched the whole screen. The screen went bl for a minute or less and thwn went back normal. The other issue i had was space. It took up the whole space what cause the glithc to begin wit. And i did not even download that many apps. It took forever to move apps and folders into a memory drive card so i was like nope. So i decided to return it

    The computer is what I need to do the work that is necessary for me to do while I am in school. It works as good as a larger computer. I received software for a limited amount of time.

    This runs like an old computer that needs to be replaced. Within 15 minutes I knew I'd be returning it. For not much more money, I got an HP 14" laptop that runs great.

    This laptop is an incredible and handy budget option. Solid processing power and a remarkable battery life. A handy computer that I think really saves a customer on a tight wallet.

    The laptop is great but the added software is a buzz. It keeps popping up when it should not. But the overall laptop is great and I added the mouse which makes it even better

    Works great, a little slower that I thought it would be. Maybe becasuse it's Win 11. Very easy to move around, not at all heavy. This was a gift for my wife and she is learning to use it.
