This is a decent laptop for work or school. You can game a little on it but definitely not GTA or COD level gaming. I like the full NUM Pad on the keyboard. It's helpful because i do a little coding. I like Lenovo products a lot. They're monitors, computers, and laptops look good. However Lenovo needs to stop soldering the RAM. Also, 8 gigs of RAM is NOT enough. I'd settle for 12. It's 2024! Other reviews had mentioned Windows 11S. You can easily switch to regular Windows. I also suggest getting a bigger NVME.

Love it!. Touch screen is an added benefit. Clear colors. Fast power. The touch pad is not in the middle it is towards the left side which is uncomfortable, but I am ok with that.

Solid laptop, don’t expect anything crazy. Does everything you’ll most likely need to do. No dedicated GPU, only a solid Ryzen 5 CPU. Slim design, alright battery life and don’t expect to do much gaming on it.
Prefect for college and taking notes on.

A review from a non-techie

I’m not into electronics and basically just want a laptop that looks and feels good and runs fast. This one is not that. I don’t recommend it overall, but I will share the pros and cons so hopefully it’ll help your decision.
Pros:
• I got it on sale for $350. To me this price tag makes it almost “disposable” in that I could replace it after a year or two. Normally I keep my laptops for 4 or more years.
• Touchscreen
• Very lightweight and thin and easy to move around – honestly this is my favorite part
• The midnight blue color is beautiful
• Battery life is quite good. Could be because it’s brand new and I was used to my old one needing a charge all the time.
• Built-in physical camera cover that you can slide open or closed
Cons:
• Screen is blurry. I adjusted Clear Type settings and contrast and it still looks bad. I had another Lenovo that was the sharpest screen I’d ever owned, so I thought this would be true across the brand, but I guess the cheaper models are not good in this respect.
• The built in speaker is awful. In some cases even at max it’s not enough to comfortably hear. I’m going to buy a USB speaker to hopefully solve this issue.
• Getting out of S mode was an absolute pain and not the “easy peasy” touch of a button they make it sound like. I watched multiple troubleshooting videos on youtube and finally one helped.
• It is slowwww. Pages do not load lightning fast like my old laptop. Images can take a while and there is significant lag. For example, if I’m shopping and want to re-order items by price, it takes a while to load and when I start scrolling, the cursor can freeze and I need to wait for the images to load. It’s very annoying.
• Sometimes the cursor disappears. When I’m trying to highlight a word or phrase, for instance, it goes white sometimes and I can’t see where it is.
• The touchpad is not centered (it’s more to the left) and I’ve been having a hard time with muscle memory for my hands to feel where the left and right buttons are without looking down.
• The keyboard is only ok. It’s not as flush as I would like it to be, but the keys don’t stick out as much as other laptops I’ve had.
• I don’t like the position of the home and end buttons. I have to look down to use them. On my other laptop, they were intuitively placed and I used them all the time.
I regret not going to a physical store and testing it out, because I would not have purchased it. Now that I have it all set up with all of my programs, I’m not going through the hassle of returning it, but next time I’ll be a smarter shopper. Hope this review helps you!

This has been the perfect laptop for college for my daughter. All of the things she needs and light weight with a large screen but still fits in a backpack. The customer service at Best Buy is why we shop here every time we need tech.

I bought this laptop in a deal for around 350 dollars. Very satisfied with the performance of this laptop. The processor is good and it comes with Touch screen which is great. No problems since i bought laptop 4-5 months back but one negative is the USB-C cable does not support using video, due to which i cannot connect the laptop to a dual monitor. I can use the HDMI port for a single monitor but most docking stations devices which support dual monitor these days work only with USB-C port...

Although I have only had this a month, I am pleased with the capabilities and dependability of this laptop. The crew at Best Buy set it up for me and so it is just as I wanted it.
everything works quite well so far. Speed and display are great. Battery lasts about 5-6 hours; probably good to not be on computer more than that at a time. It charges fairly quickly, an hour or two. Overall, I am pleased with this purchase.
