    Good laptop for what I use it for. Only complaint is the touchpad seems a little sluggish from time to time.

    Not a good computer investment

    As an IT Professional I rarely have time to review computers. I feel I have to in this case to warn people considering this as a purchase. The "8GB" ram is soldered onto the motherboard and CANNOT be upgraded. It gets worse though. Your system will not actually be given the full "8GB" of memory. More like 5.6 GB after the AMD graphics card allocates memory for itself. A new computer is not usable with 5 GB ram. You will be buying a new computer within a couple years because it will be so slow. Get a computer with 16GB Ram right off the bat. 8 GB is the BARE minimum these days.

      Hi GabeJ,

      Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with your IdeaPad 1, and we apologize for the disappointment that this has caused you.

      We understand your perspective on system requirements and that each user has different needs with modern day workloads requiring more resources. We recommend that if more memory is needed, and graphics performance isn't as important, that you adjust the reserved memory in the system BIOS. Please feel free to reach out to Lenovo Support here: 877-453-6686, should you need assistance with the process.

      Please reach out to us with any questions, concerns or request for further assistance.
