    This laptop is the 3rd Lenovo I bought from BestBuy. The first two were setup at the Blufton store and have performed quite well. This one is a bit more sophisticated and I'm not the most experienced person in the world, has made the setup a little bit more difficult. I've called the Geek Squad but they have not been able to help me. I was told I have to bring the laptop back to the store. It is performming well but not the way I'd like to do it. I hope I can bring it back when normal times come back.

    Easily the cheapest branded laptop I've ever purchased but it does the job! It's perfect for basic computer processes such as web surfing, emails, watching videos, etc. I gifted it to my 70-year old mom and she liked how compact it is yet the buttons are big enough for a senior with poor eyesight. For the price, I would highly recommend!

    This worked better for Zoom than the school-issued Chromebook. However, it began freezing as we moved between tabs. I even tried it myself in case my 7 year old was clicking too much. It was lagging and this morning simply crashed. Thankfully we are still within the return window. First day back from winter break and we wouldn't have been able to thoroughly test this out prior.
