I would recommend this to a friendLenova Laptop - Uses Windows 10S....
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchase experience from Best Buy was great. I had curbside pickup, they were fast & courteous. Support from Lenova is terrible. I was replacing a Chromebook which connected wirelessly to a printer. The Lenova would not print wirelessly. It keeps taking printer offline. Unless I keep a USB cable connected, I cannot print. When I contacted Lenova --both technicians had difficulty speaking English. Then, I was told I would have to pay for service. Printer is 2 weeks old and they want me to pay. Issue is Lenova has Windows 10S ---their documentation says my particular printer is fine, but I could not get any help getting it connected. Still deciding - may return laptop. I have contacted printer manufacturer.

Posted .We are sorry to hear that you are having issues connecting your Lenovo IdeaPad 1 14 Laptop, model number 81VS009GUS. As you point out, this model ships with Windows 10 S-Mode Operating System. Windows 10 S-Mode provides added security by only allowing APPs available ( and therefore certified by Microsoft) at the Microsoft Store. If you don't need the added security or you need to install APPs not available at the Microsoft Store, you can switch to standard Windows 10 Home 64-bit Operating System, at no additional cost. Be sure your printer is compatible with Windows 10 S-Mode format. The drivers you need to run your printer may require switching out of S-Mode to Windows 10 Home. Here is a link to instructions for switching from Windows 10 S-Mode to Windows 10 Home: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4456067/windows-10-switch-out-of-s-mode. We recommend you check with your printer manufacturer's website for the compatibility of your specific printer model with Windows 10 S-Mode or whether you will need to switch out of S-Mode to Windows 10 Home for your printer to be compatible. Follow the printer setup instructions provided by your printer manufacturer for a new Windows 10 computer.
