    We have a few Macs in the house but still need windows computer for items no compatible (certain software). Bought this on Labor Day sale and it's great!! Biggest letdown was no backlit keyboard. Seems like all laptops should have this feature these days. But thats the biggest complaint so far, lol.

      Hey AndrewB,

      Thanks for choosing Lenovo and for sharing your feedback with us!

      We are glad to read that your experience with this IdeaPad 1 has been good thus far. We appreciate your comment regarding keyboard backlighting. This is a feature that's common with more premium device lines like the Lenovo IdeaPad 5 laptops, but we have noted this as it may be considered for future design improvements.

    Couldn't be happier with the Lenovo Laptop. Got everything I needed or wanted in a laptop. Plus I purchased it on a Best Buy special day, so that was a great price reduction. I must mention the staff. They are courteous, more than helpful, and the Geek Squad Desk is extremely helpful and knowledgeable.

    With little help from my "friend," my best friend, my wife, I am finally getting used to and liking my computer very much. Thanks to Geek Squad for setting up the computer and transferring data from my old one, my computing times are far more enjoyable than my old computer allowed.

    I initially couldn't believe what a great deal I was getting! The specs were decent for the low price, plus I was getting a Ryzen. Within the first 10-15 minutes, I knew something was off. Well, you don't truly have 8 RAM, you have a little over 4 because of the integrated graphics. I knew it would take up some, but I wasn't prepared for it taking up half. Even with this said, it is still a decent laptop for someone who doesn't have 3 browsers running with 20 tabs in each of the 10 windows. Lol.

    Yeah, the laptop was great, but when I ordered both laptops and the cover for the one laptop, they were all supposed to be delivered to my house. You guys delivered one laptop and had the laptop and the sleeve for the other laptop for me to pick up, then you were the next day you sent the other laptop to me And then four days later you told me the sleeves in and you’re gonna charge me nine dollars to deliver it I told you the ticket ticket and it was no way I was paying for you to take it off my bill so now I’m not very happy with you people and how you do your things there

    I replaced a laptop that was running well but won’t be able to update to Windows 11. This new laptop is easy to use. My only complaint is that when I ran into an issue with downloading the included software, the Lenovo tech said they only help with hardware issues and if I wanted software help, I had to pay extra for it. Seems like they should assist with set up.

    Laptop is very cheap and it does the basic office work you need. It’s not a gaming laptop that can process things super fast, but it does the job for excel, emails, and other paperwork’s.

    This has been a great daily driver. I immediately swapped out the hard drive and installed Linux. The touchscreen works great. However, the webcam and built in microphone aren’t the best. Additionally, it would be nice to be able to upgrade/add RAM. I really like the screen size and the keyboard (10 key is really nice to have). All in all, this is a very nice computer for the money.
