    Perfect present for wife

    I got this for my wife for Christmas and she immediately liked it. I took some time, set it up, showed her a few things and she has not looked back. She genuinely liked the gift. It's the perfect size for her. The screen is great and it's plenty fast enough for her web browsing habits like Facebook, local news, sports, YouTube, etc. It's really a great computer at a great price. The only thing I would like, and this is me not her, is a touchscreen. But, that's irrelevant because she's fine without it and it's her computer.

    I just needed a laptop for occasional use, write a letter, search the web, but I love the look of it and the feel of the keyboard! Great little laptop for the price.

    This is such a great laptop for the price. Its what i transport between school, work, and home. I use it to download docs, browse, write papers, watch Netflix and it works great. It does have a few drawbacks like a sticky space bar and low res screen but I paid $159. Can't complain. My expensive laptop stays put at home.

    a bit of a disappointment. The volume is not great and the keypad is not responsive. Some keys require different pressure, some catch. Light and quick but have added nothing yet. For the price still worthwhile.

    Buyer's remorse

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

    After reading the negative reviews I purchased this laptop thinking all of their issues were user related. I owe you all an apology. I only use it for browsing and the battery drains quickly, it freezes, and loses connection frequently. I'm writing this review from my phone because I'm shopping for a replacement laptop but the Lenovo is freezing too much to browse. I purchased right after Black Friday.

    I purchased this for my 86 year old mother. She really uses it for playing Solitare and email. It works perfect for both. My only complaint would be that if you leave it on for an extended time, you loose the sound. A reboot takes care of that.

    I will just quickly go over some of the issues. -wifi consistently disconnects -cheap case cracks -speakers are on the bottom, so it is hard to hear -difficulty running multiple programs -weird video playback issues Pros: price/battery life Bottom line: You get what you pay for.
