Great PC!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Ryzen 5 CPU and SSD make this Laptop startup almost instantly. I bought it to do multimedia presentations by day , and Serato DJ by night. Spectacular performance! Haven't tried gaming, but should be fine. The footprint is small for a 15.6, the screen goes to the edge of the bezel, and it s thin and light , too

Great performer for price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to surf the web and work on Office apps occasionally. Wasn’t expecting the speed and quality of the laptop. Keyboard feels like that of a much more expensive machine, as well as the clarity and sharpness of the screen. Runs great on a 100MB wireless network. Whether on sale or not, this is a great value.

Gets the job done
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Personally, buying this laptop was a major downgrade from what i had. The battery does not last long at all, it is cheaply made, but it does what i need it to do.

On-the-go
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This laptop is great for someone like me. I work full time and go to school full time. The only downfall is that it takes about two minutes to turn on after you shut the laptop. Other than that it’s amazing!

Posted .The Lenovo IdeaPad 330s-15 laptop has a 128GB solid state hard drive. It should boot to the Windows 10 desktop from power off, in less than 10 seconds. Be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 10. There is no need to install Microsoft Office software. The software is already part of the operating system, you just need to activate the software with a purchased product key. If you have installed a copy of Microsoft Office, this is conflicting with the existing copy on the system and this will slow your system down. If you have installed a 3rd party anti-virus program, be sure that Windows Defender is turned off and that the trial version of McAfee Anti-Virus software is uninstalled. There can only be one anti-virus program on the system. You may need to restore your system to original factory default settings if any of the programing errors have occurred. You can do that by typing "restore" in the Cortana search window. Just click on the magnifying glass icon at the bottom left of your Windows 10 Desktop. Click on "Reset This PC" Then click on "Get Started" and follow the on screen directions to restore to factory defaults. If the problem persists, we recommend you contact Lenovo Tech Support at: 877-453-6686.

Will meet our needs
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only issue with the laptop is the fact that it had to be ordered and by the time we could have it set up,the trial of Office was expired. This should have started when we first turned on the laptop.

Posted .Thank you for choosing the Lenovo IdeaPad 330s-15 laptop. With regard to the 30-day Microsoft Office 365 trial that is installed on all Windows 10 computers, the 30-day trial is part of the Microsoft Windows 10 operating system. The trial period starts at the time of initial activation of Windows 10, whether you activate Microsoft Office or not. If you activated Windows 10 for the first time and had less than 30-days on the trial period for Microsoft Office, we recommend you contact Microsoft directly.

Excellent value
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What more could you ask for in a low-cost laptop? Sleek, lightweight, snappy performance, sharp display. Only issue was the OEM Wifi card was awful. Replaced it with a $15 Intel 8265NGW and all is good.

Quick and Easy access
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for my 15-year-old daughter for high school and hopefully into college. Wanted a quick starting computer with lots of memory. This does it! She can also watch videos when she is finished with homework (cough) play games which she does a little bit. Great screen and keyboard.

Laptops are nimble and responsive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought several of these for our technicians, and upgraded to 10 Pro, etc... etc... The techs are understandably picky about their machines but these were received well. They don't have Ethernet ports, but that was my fault for not noticing it. A simple USB-Ethernet resolves that issue.

I love this laptop!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This laptop is the perfect size and it is lightning fast!. The keyboard has a great touch. The screen is mat. I do not like reflective screens so that was a big plus. Easy to set up. It does have to be charged quite often but that is not a problem for me. Overall a great laptop.

Great product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this PC, it starts up much faster than my old one which wasn't yet two years old. Clarity is better and the folks at Best Buy couldn't have been nicer. I am far from a computer expert and they took the time to explain anything I asked them without looking like I annoyed them.
