    So far so good. The unit is light weight and working great. The only thing not happy with no touch screen.

    Not bad but needed a better screen

    So it has a really bad screen just to point out especially compared to my M1 Mac . But l eventually l got used to the screen and it barely bothers me at all. Really solid laptop so far but try to get the one with Ryzen 7 with the same specs for a better screen. It’s $200 more but you can get it on discount for the price of this. The battery life isn’t bad but isn’t excellent either. It gives about 6 hours on a full charge, again so different compared to my M1 Mac but l got used to it and now it’s not so bad

    I absolutely love my Lenovo IdeaPad 1! It’s fast, reliable, and handles all my daily tasks with ease. Whether I’m working, streaming, or just browsing online, everything runs smoothly. The screen is bright and clear, making it enjoyable to use for long periods. The design is sleek and lightweight, which makes it easy to take anywhere. It feels well-built and looks great, too. For the price, this laptop delivers amazing value. If you’re looking for a dependable, stylish laptop that gets the job done, this is the one to get!

    While this has pretty fast speeds and is super light, the display colors actually SUCK!! I have tried everything to get the colors brighter but there is nothing. And of course I missed the return window by 2 days!! I love a Lenovo laptop but this one here is awful. My 10yr old Gateway laptop has a brighter more crisp screen than this thing. UGH

    When I first got this laptop I wasn’t sure. But after a couple of months with it— I can clarify that it does run fast. I’ve downloaded a couple of games on there and it still runs fast. It works great with me as I use it for college mostly and some games sometimes.

    There were so many problems getting my information transferred to my new laptop, the technician was having difficulty and his notes were confusing and the process was taking so long. I finally went in & asked for a different tech to work on my laptop. Travis assured me that he would review everything and start from scratch. Travis was able to transfer the information and sort out my laptop in a day! We made sure all the information was transferred & that I was satisfied & all questions were answered! The senior CIA, Chavez also stopped to make sure that I was taken care of and that the situation was resolved to my satisfaction. I was extremely happy with Travis & Chavez they are both wonderful ambassadors for Best Buy!
