    This laptop is worthy of 5 stars, but Windows 11 warrants just a 4 star grade. Windows 11 will relegate this laptop to worthless in a year or 2. As Windows upgrades buildup over time, it will eat up the small 128GB eMMc drive, so I recommend having at least a 256GB eMMC drive for Windows 11. In light of this, I run Linux, so I still went and purchased this Lenovo laptop. It will easily run any Linux operating system, and I can customize the updates,

    Bought 2 of these for my kids to use for school, they are aweful. Slow and lock up constantly and the only way to continue is to shut it down and restart Very disappointed even for the investment I have in them. Ended up going and buying something else $400 just down the drain

    This computer is extremely slow and it can’t run apps…but that’s also what makes it so cheap. If you’re looking for something for work this may not be what you want, but if you’re looking for an inexpensive backup for emergency situations (like when your primary computer is in the shop) then it will work fine.

    Its a great tablet except for you cant change the eMMC drive in anyway. It has an extra slot for up to 1tb ssd card but in the bios there is no options that change source to new bigger drive. This one also had to go in for repair only after 12 days of use. Had to have motherboard replaced. The other models of Lenovo have more options so look carefully.

    This laptop has worked rather well with being something pretty inexpensive and basic. My wife uses this for college and while the build quality is not necessarily the best, the fact that the RAM can be upgraded is a pretty great thing. It comes with 4gb of Ram I think, and we threw a crucial 16gb additional ram card in there for like $35. Overall, not too bad.

    Not what I was expecting and not in a good way. Simple laptop for basic usage, such as browsing the Internet, using some downloadable apps but horrible for games or similar. Tremendous lag and poor graphics. This particular Lenovo is not for gaming or anything requiring high graphic quality.
