I have been using PC's with SSD's so this does feel a little slow to me in comparison, and the Pentium chip is no speed-demon, however looking at this product for what it is and at its price point, this is still a very capable machine. It may not be the fastest but being an all-in-one is nice for small spaces for a desktop solution, a larger monitor than a laptop could offer and the touchscreen is a nice and welcome addition. For the price of a full PC, throw in a large touchscreen monitor, all in one nice and compact package, this is difficult to beat.

I was not even aware that they had all in one computers, when I saw them I knew it was what I wanted. I did ask the salesman his opinion and he suggested the Lenovo. I really like it, you can use it as a touch screen or keyboard and everything was simple to set up. So far I have no complaints. I would recommend as a simple at home computer.

Lenovo acquired IBM's computer business, and the desktop I purchased is first rate. It was a breeze to install, has really cool features like the optional use of touch screen instead of typing, nice pop-up camera making privacy easy to manage and the price was very competitive.

First Store Bought Desktop Computer

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I have purchased laptops before, but always built my desktops. This my first desktop purchase and the first PC that I have purchased in over 10 years. My existing PC are all Windows 10 that have kept current. This new Lenovo is replacing an ancient all-in-one HP Smarttouch 310 that died. The new Lenovo 520 is almost an exact replacement in its physical size to the HP that it is replacing, but worlds apart in its overall performance. Although, Lenovo states that this is an entry PC, it does not respond that way. I’m using it in the same way as the HP, so for me it is quite an improvement over the ancient HP which died.
Features that I like is the appearance. It looks like a standalone monitor and not an All-in-one PC. It has a beautiful edge to edge 21” display that has vibrant images. 8 gigs of RAM, 7200 RPM, 1 gig drive Sata HHD which is more than ample to handle most computer tasks. I am not a gamer and Lenovo does not recommend this PC for that duty. However, I have viewed a Netflix movie with no issues. The movie had very smooth transitions and great sound. The pop-up webcam produces excellence images.
Assembly and Setup was a breeze. No tools needed. Everything is included: wired mouse, wired keyboard and DVD player. Four USB ports of which one is USB 3, two HDMI ports for connecting a second monitor or game box and Bluetooth 4.0. To complete my setup for my situation, I did need two items to get up and running: my Microsoft Account and Wi-Fi passwords. I subscribe to Office 365 and use OneDrive for data storage. There is virtually no ‘bloatware’ on this machine which I appreciated. Lenovo has a handy installation program that gives you the opportunity to select the additional programs you would like to install i.e. Netflix, FaceBook, Dropbox, etc.
Lastly, the most significant thing is price. Of course, you can pay hundreds of dollar more for a more powerful machine, But if you just want the performance as advertised, light computer browsing, minimal multitasking, etc, than you cannot beat the less than $500 price. I personally think Lenovo is playing it safe in its advertising. Because IMOP I believe the machine is far more capable than it is being advertised. I would recommend this machine to anyone looking for an attractive, compact, and a more than capable PC for their computer needs.

I purchased the All-n-One computer with not allot of great expectations, you know you get what you pay for so to speak. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised, the system was beyond my expectations by a mile. It has been a extremely well computer with surprises like a touch screen, crazy cool. I run allot of music and pictures on this system and so far not a glitch. I would recommend this system.

I bought this computer for my office. I can’t think of any negative about this product, it has a touchscreen, 1TB hard disk, 8 GB ram memory, which is more than enough memory to most office related work.
I really like the color and design, perfect for a office.
I bought this in July, 2018 and still works as new.

This computer is great for the price. The chip is a newer quad-core chip that is great for everything as long as you're not trying to play modern graphics intense games. The computer is really just a monitor with very small bezels - it is light and compact. Startup seems to be a little slow, but after that the computer is really speedy even with the 5400rpm hard drive. And this thing is quiet! You would be very hard-pressed to even hear the fan or hard drive, even in a very quiet room.

This is our 3rd Lenovo pc and we are not disappointed. I wanted something bigger and more powerful than my Surface Pro 4 for my home office and this pc fit the bill. It's a prefect sized all-in-one computer for my office desk, which isn't very big. I say middle ground computer because there are certainly bigger, faster, more memory, etc. computers out there but it will cost you. For the $500 bucks this is prefect.

Bought two of these for a vacation home so use would be sporadic; didn't need top of the line computing. I have always liked Lenovo and this is adequate for my needs. Easy set-up and the all-in-one makes things look sleek which was important to me. The price, as it usually is, was on sale and more than doable for two units. I'm not a gamer but I don't think this would serve well. Easy-to-use, simple desktop.
