    Excellent Value and Performance – Perfect for Ever

    I’ve been using the Lenovo IdeaPad 1 for several weeks now, and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. For the price, this laptop really delivers more than I expected. The touchscreen is surprisingly responsive and makes navigation feel smooth and intuitive, whether I’m browsing the web, working on documents, or streaming videos. The full HD display is clear and vibrant, and I appreciate the extra screen space when multitasking. What stands out most is the portability. It’s lightweight and slim, making it easy to carry to class, and for traveling. The keyboard is comfortable for long typing sessions, and the overall build feels sturdy. Performance-wise, the Ryzen 5 processor and 8GB of memory handle everyday tasks with ease. I use it for office apps, video calls, light photo editing, and streaming—and it keeps up without slowing down. The SSD also helps everything boot up and load quickly. It's a reliable laptop that gets the job done without breaking the bank. It offers the right balance of value, performance, and convenience. I’d absolutely recommend it to friends or family.

    I’ve been using the Lenovo IdeaPad 1 (15.6” Touchscreen, AMD Ryzen 5 7520U, 8GB/256GB SSD) for a few weeks now, and I’m really impressed with its performance for the price. It’s lightweight, runs very smoothly, and the touchscreen is responsive and convenient for quick navigation. The Ryzen 5 processor handles multitasking easily — great for emails, browsing, streaming, and even light office work. The display quality is crisp and bright, and the Abyss Blue color gives it a nice, modern look. Battery life is solid — I can usually get a full workday out of it with moderate use. The keyboard is comfortable to type on, and it stays fairly quiet. While it’s not meant for gaming or heavy video editing, it’s perfect for students, professionals, or anyone needing a reliable everyday laptop. Overall, excellent value and performance for the cost. Would definitely recommend this Lenovo IdeaPad 1!

    So far the speed, response time and display are all great for the price point. It work well for school, and document keeping. Although the storage isn't that great it makes up for it with its capabilty of expanding the storage and using clouds. Also the battery life is great. I use it for hours to write listen to music and watch research videos without it dying.

    Non-upgradable RAM

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

    I picked up the Lenovo IdeaPad 1 looking for a budget-friendly laptop for everyday tasks like web browsing, emails, and streaming videos. For the price, it's an excellent purchase—the speed is great, the touchscreen is a very convenient feature, and the screen quality is bright and clear. It's lightweight and thin, so it's easy to carry around. However, the biggest drawback is the memory. The 8GB of RAM is soldered to the motherboard, which means it can't be upgraded. While 8GB is fine for basic multitasking right now, I know it's a limitation for future-proofing. As software and apps become more demanding, the non-upgradable RAM could become a bottleneck and slow the system down. So, if you're a student or casual user on a budget, this is a fantastic value. But if you think you'll need more power down the line, keep in mind that you're stuck with what you get

    I have a pc and it has been bogged down with lots of issues. Decided to get something for quick access. It's nice to boot this up and just go. I have a side job selling virtually and its nice to just pop this on to print out a label or something small without turning on the other beast. I like the touchscreen. I realize I don't know why I really wanted touchscreen as I sometimes forget it even has it, but its fun to used sometimes. It's really lightweight. The battery lasts nicely for low demand projects, but the charger works quick if you are doing some high demand. Will it run crazy games? no. But I have been using it for some games, and using the cloud system from xbox has worked really well. I am surprised at some of the games I can run cloud streaming on this. overall great for the price

    I recently purchased the Lenovo Yoga laptop from Best Buy, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision. This laptop delivers everything I was looking for: sleek design, powerful performance, and exceptional versatility. The 360-degree hinge allows me to seamlessly switch between laptop and tablet modes, making it perfect for work, entertainment, and creative projects. The display quality is stunning, with vibrant colors and sharp resolution, ideal for both streaming and productivity. The keyboard is comfortable and responsive, while the touchscreen is highly accurate. Battery life is excellent, lasting through my busy day without needing frequent charges. Best of all, it feels lightweight and portable, making it my go-to device for on-the-go use. Best Buy’s service was also top-notch, with helpful staff and a smooth purchasing experience. I highly recommend the Lenovo Yoga for anyone looking for a reliable, versatile, and stylish laptop! See Less

    I have a Lenovo IdeaPad 3 that I purchased several years ago that is my go to computer. I needed to replace my older Sony laptop that we keep in the gameroom. Of course I chose another Lenovo because it's compact, practical and easy to use. This is a IdeaPad 1 but is more than adequate for my needs. The team member at my Best Buy assured me this Lenovo would fit my needs and it surely does. The screen is the perfect size for us; it's lightweight so easily portable. I love that it's touchscreen even though usually use a mouse. We're very low tech and older and I would recommend this Lenovo for my fellow seniors.

    I needed a new computer for college and this ended up being the perfect choice. I'm not the best at picking out a good laptop from the bunch so my brother looked and found this one. I ended up getting it and it's been super amazing. I first off love touch screen devices so that was an amazing edition when I found out. It's super easy to use and I can even play games on it when I'm not doing school work. Overall, performance is wonderful. It's fast and processes everything super well. I haven't had any technical issues with it and I've had it a little over a month now.

    I got this laptop as a surprise gift for my daughter. She needed it for her work and hers suddenly displayed that dreaded blue screen. She is in love with it because it has a long battery life, light weight, touchscreen feature and plenty of space for her spreadsheets. She is so happy for this and says so quite often. I purchased online and then picked it up. Everything was quick and easy. Thank you
