Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the ideacentre 300S's price, ease of use, performance, and compact size, finding it suitable for basic computing tasks. However, customers are negative about the motherboard, RAM, and hard drive reliability, with some experiencing failures shortly after purchase. The small form factor is a plus for many, but some users felt the included RAM and storage were insufficient. Issues with the cooling fan were also reported by a few users.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

    Incredibly Slow Computer

    I went it and bought this computer after reading many reviews online about it being a really good buy. Went in and picked it up. Got home plugged it into my monitor and first thing I noticed was it took extremely long to load. Once it loaded an was set up I tried to go online but it took anywhere from 45 seconds-2 minutes to load any page. Took it back to the store that same day and exchanged it for another computer.
