    I needed to upgrade from my Windows 10 laptop and found this Lenovo IdeaPad that was on sale. It has all of the power and memory that I require and I am happy with my choice.

    I bought this to tune my bike. I’m not a computer guy so I went with the sales person and they nailed it! Is easy to use and comes with more features than I need. The screen quality and size are perfect. I can throw it in my saddle bags go put in a few riding sessions and dial in my bike.

    I bought this for my aunt who recently had a stroke and needed a new computer. She really likes it. It’s easy for her to navigate which is very important. It’s not super fast but it fast enough for her. It’s perfect for what she needs.The only negative I can say is you have to log into your Microsoft account to set up your computer. Which is a problem if you don’t remember your Microsoft account. So I had to set up a brand new account for her just to get into the computer, which was kind of annoying. Other than that, she really likes it. So if you’re looking for a basic computer this might be the computer for you.

    Good for the price, don’t love the screen display

    So far, this has been a very solid purchase for the price! The only thing I really do not like about this laptop is the screen quality. I feel as if it is hard to see the entire screen from most angles (for example, either the top portion or the bottom portion seems to be blurry no matter how I angle the screen). This is a bit bothersome, but I haven’t experienced any other issues yet. I would recommend it for the price!

    I had a great experience in the store. It was black, friday, and the staff worked very hard at making sure everybody was helpped. All very friendly. I was able to save money since it was black friday. And since I was in store, I had the opportunity to take advantage of an open box sale and got even more money off of my purchase. It made it possible to stretch my budget my family's christmas. Thank you for training that store so well. Momma bear is going to love her laptop.

    This small laptop is exactly what I needed. I toyed with the idea of having a tablet, but I like the operating system on this Lenovo much better. Set up was straightforward and I was able to get through it quickly. I opt out of the cloud, but I am able to put in a little drive and save all my stuff on that. I had the geek squad put Microsoft Word on the computer, so that did boost the price quite a bit, but I believe it is worth it and I’m glad I made this purchase.

    I received this laptop at a good deal during black friday sale for around $200 something dollars, I needed a great laptop to complete my school work for college, and this was a great investment! Other than that, it came with a free voucher off 3 months of xbox gaming and you can personalize this laptop to your liking!

    Needed a new laptop due to mine not working. Set up was easy and quick. An issue I had was that whenever I lifted the screen to open the laptop, it would turn on. Not sure how that setting got set prior to me using it or maybe it was done by default. Additinally, battery life is not the best. Charged it fully prior to setting it up and felt that the battery life was really low. Ended up returning it due to being able to fix my old laptop.

    Laptop was easy to setup. The screen is bright and it is very lightweight. The battery life is much better than my previous Dell (which died about an hour after active use, even with replacing the battery). I only use it for the internet and Microsoft Office so unsure how it would function trying to game.

    This is great laptop for the money with enough features and battery life for someone looking to replace an old dying laptop or just needs the basics. The speed and responsiveness is up to par for light work and browsing. The screen could use some adjusting, but something has to give at this price. The value is exceptional

    This is the best Xmas gift I have to myself after having my Lenovo laptop for over 6 years. The new one has windows 11, easy to install apps and must faster and easier to use. I even purchased a printer and that was the best thing ever than going to the library to print. Glad I purchased my great and wonderful gift toysrlf.

    My second IdeaPad

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I've had a series of ThinkPads, then IdeaPads. This is my 2nd IdeaPad and my only complaint is that my 1st one was so thin (sometimes a good thing) that it flexed so much on a soft surface that the touch pad was compromised. Otherwise, it was great and this new one will be used with that in mind. It will mainly be used for streaming, email and browsing.

    When I purchased this Lenovo Laptop computer, I was skeptical when purchasing another Lenovo computer. Since I purchased this computer, I am loving it because the GB are faster and a lot stronger. When I log in to my school and check my personal emails, the system responds quicker.
