    Alot of searching and shopping and poof here it is. Are there faster computers?, sure. Are there larger screens?, yep! Both the computer and Best Buy made a serious decision, very simple. This is what shipping should be.

    My friend asked me to shop for a laptop for her granddaughter to use for school. This was the first time I saw a Lenovo for that price so I quickly purchased it for her. It comes with Microsoft office and she loves it

    This is a nice slim laptop. I use it for basic online stuff like school work, emails and some shopping apps. I haven't had a computer in a while and this was very easy to set up. I am very pleased with my Lenovo laptop.

    Very slow in processing. I guess the slogan is true you get what you paid for. You are only using this for minimum browsing and to send a few emails or basic job search this is your computer. If you need this for more high volume work and activities this is not your computer.

    I bought this to use as a laptop to play. Online poker and casino games with it works amazing. After the first initial update there's been no delays or problems I love this thing. It's super light and doesn't get hot

    Terrible computer. I opened the computer and it took me 20 minutes to boot the computer. I attempted to log onto a web page and it WOULD NOT LOAD. This computer is equal to throwing money down the drain. Do not buy.
