Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the IdeaPad 1's performance, ease of use, ample RAM and storage, lightweight design, and long battery life. Many appreciate its value for the price. However, customers are negative about the screen quality, citing issues such as washed-out colors and grainy resolution. The overall experience appears to be positive for most users despite this drawback.

    The team members that guided me through my purchase were a great help. They were knowledgeable, professional, patient and courteous. It made the entire transaction painless. I have recommended my coworkers to shop at Best Buy due to this encounter. I am satisfied with my purchase.

    The process of purchasing my laptop online and picking it up was easy and quick. I took it and my old laptop to the geek squad, and Joshua was very helpful. It took only a day for the data transfer to be completed, Zachary helped me with the issues and questions I had. I was very happy with the outcome!

    Setup was a breeze. Laptop startup time is really quick and can multitask really well. Expecting a longer battery life as advertised but doesn't meet the specs.

      Hi Jay7dm, thanks for choosing Lenovo! If you want to squeeze out more battery life, we recommend users utilize the Lenovo Vantage application that is preinstalled to adjust settings related to power and battery performance (to access relevant settings, open Vantage > Device Settings > Power). Users can also take advantage of the keyboard shortcut, Fn + Q to toggle thermal modes and easily switch between prioritizing battery life or power, or even the best of both worlds. We're glad to hear that your IdeaPad otherwise performs well for you, and we really appreciate you sharing your experience and feedback with us. Lenovo

    The laptop is great, but the battery seems to be old. It's not charging as fast as it should. After leaving it on the charger overnight it was barely at 29%. I have exchanged it...will update based on the experience with the new one.

    The Lenovo IdeaPad arrived in good shape, and on time. Initial setup was pretty straight forward and price was very competitive. I am still getting used to it, but at this point I would give it 5 Stars.

    The pickup service was excellent. The laptop is adequate for my needs, but of course it's preloaded with too much Microsoft junk and surveillance features that robs anyone of their privacy.

    We bought this laptop for our 10 yr. old great grandson. He loves everything about it. He said it's just as good as ours that he used when he visited. Seems like a good buy especially for the low price.

    So far so good! Much better than my old Dell. I like the keyboard, but it did take me a few days to get used to it. The keypad is useful for entering grades. Very glad I got it on Black Friday. Also, I love the blue :)
