    Not bad for the price but not great. You would be better off spending an extra one or two hundred dollars getting a better performing model or other brand.

    Nice laptop for the price. I still preferred my T430 so I ended up returning this after a few days. No hassles thank you Best Buy. Nicer screen, a little flex on the computer, but for the price and if I needed a computer I definitely would of kept it.

    An awesome price for laptop that is a good performing unit with some nice features. This does what I want it to do well. This is not a high performance model and does have some short comings, but could not pass up for the price (Black Friday special). Have had good luck with other lenovo machines so would expect the same long term.

    Black Friday laptop

    Good first laptop for kids, on Black Friday they cost 130, so I bought 2 for my nieces, good entry level laptop, if you don’t expect much from them, they’re absolutely worth the asking price. More discerning buyers will nitpick. The screen sucks and the processor is slow, and there’s very little storage, ultimately, it’s a chrome book for people who think their workflow or use case is too important for chrome books. I would personally not own one, but I understand the appeal. Would recommend.

    I wanted to buy a computer for my son’s birthday that was not expensive and that could be able to play casual games and this was just perfect. At first I was a little disappointed that the windows 10 s feature would not let you download things from the web but it could be switched off so no big deal. Satisfied customer.
