      Hi, Thais. We are sorry to hear that your IdeaPad has fallen short of your expectations. This model is an entry level, light use system designed for singular, non-demanding tasks, also being a reason as to why it does not feature a higher quality display since value is important for devices like this. Should you feel you are using the device for its intended use and still experiencing a performance issue, we recommend searching for and applying any available updates through Windows Update Settings. Also, ensure that your home Wi-Fi network is compatible with, and is capable of supplying your laptop with sufficient bandwidth to deliver the performance you desire for internet-based tasks. If after these steps your issue persists, we then recommend reaching out to Lenovo Support here: 877-453-6686, and providing a representative with details of your issue, so that they may help by providing a solution for you. We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review with us. Lenovo

    Too slow. Regardless of price the computer just goes on infinite loops of delay. Even for my dad who doesn’t require too much from his laptop, this was legitimately unusable.

    Laptop really holds it own in power and efficiency depending on what you use it for. My girlfriend loves it and she just uses it for school and maybe watch some Netflix.

    Extremely slow laptop. Just the setup alone was a pain for how slow the processor runs and trying to open any window. Spend an extra $50-$100 on something more powerful!
