    Bought this for a high school student who needed something reliable (and affordable) to facilitate distance learning. This works great for that purpose and can also function as much more with the 8GB ram and SSD. Overall a solid product at a great price.

      If you are still experiencing slower than expected performance, be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 10. There is no need to install Microsoft Office software. The software is already part of the operating system, you just need to activate the software with a purchased product key. If you have installed a copy of Microsoft Office, this is conflicting with the existing copy on the system and this will slow your system down. If you have installed a 3rd party anti-virus program, be sure that Windows Defender is turned off and that the trial version of McAfee Anti-Virus software is uninstalled. There can only be one anti-virus program on the system. You may need to restore your system to original factory default settings if any of the programming errors have occurred. You can do that by typing "restore" in the Cortana search window. Just click on the magnifying glass icon at the bottom left of your Windows 10 Desktop. Click on "Reset This PC" Then click on "Get Started" and follow the on screen directions to restore to factory defaults. If the problem persists, we recommend you contact Lenovo Tech Support at: 877-453-6686. Lenovo

    and exchange for another one, a DEll. They were out of stock on the model I wanted, however, they located 3 at the Dearborn store. I drove to Dearborn and there was NO stock on the laptop i wanted. Bad news. then one of your assoc. checked his inventory and came up with another computer that fit my needs and saved me $67'00. He went that extra mile to located something comparable and saved my purchase. So, instead of me getting a resentment, he did the right thing. Thank you for your extra effort....

    I bought this laptop for school. Worried that it would be slow and take forever to load due to my past history of buying cheaper end laptops. But I was wrong. This computer loads pretty fast, doesn’t lag and can handle multiple opened browsers without lagging. It’s exactly what I needed for school. I’ve also watched Netflix on it no problems. Have not tried gaming. I do have one complaint...is that the camera is grainy and not clear but I don’t use it for that purpose so it doesn’t bother me.

    I purchased this with the intention of replacing the preinstalled operating system (Windows 10 Home in S mode) with Linux. I had random lockups running the graphical Linux desktop which ended up being resolved by applying the latest firmware update. For anyone wanting to use this computer the same way, you'll have a much easier time with things if you look for and apply the latest firmware update BEFORE replacing Windows 10, as the update is a Windows executable.
