Extremely Slow
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My best buy experience was awesome especially the curbside assistant, however this laptop was the slowest machine I've ever encountered. My laptop crashed during covid and I'm an author. I grabbed this in the hopes of just using Microsoft Word and occasionally using Google for research. This laptop could not handle those 2 very simple functions. I reset it and that didn't help. Overall in the year 2020 nothing should ever work this slow.

The Lenovo IdeaPad 1-14 laptop ships with a free 1-year subscription to Microsoft Office 365 (a $69.00 value). If you are not experiencing expected performance, be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 10. There is no need to install Microsoft Office software. The software is already part of the operating system, you just need to activate the software with a purchased product key. If you have installed a copy of Microsoft Office, this is conflicting with the existing copy on the system and this will slow your system down. If you have installed a 3rd party anti-virus program, be sure that Windows Defender is turned off and that the trial version of McAfee Anti-Virus software is uninstalled. There can only be one anti-virus program on the system. You may need to restore your system to original factory default settings if any of the programming errors have occurred. You can do that by typing "restore" in the Cortana search window. Just click on the magnifying glass icon at the bottom left of your Windows 10 Desktop. Click on "Reset This PC" Then click on "Get Started" and follow the on screen directions to restore to factory defaults. If the problem persists, we recommend you contact Lenovo Tech Support at: 877-453-6686.

Wasted my money
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This laptop was not worth the $250 I paid for it. It runs slow, it locks up and I have to restart it. The microphone/speakers don't work well for Zoom Meeting, which is the main reason I bought it. I feel like I just flushed my money down the drain. And unless I'm on top of my modem, the WIFI doesn't connect properly. It's not A WIFI problem because none of my other devices have problems, just this laptop. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!
