Great value for what was needed.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seems to be just exactly what was needed for light business and personal use. Touchpad is way more sensitive than it needs to be, making it difficult to keep hands off when typing-cursor jumps around easily. All in all, still getting familiar and no major complaints.

Posted .Thank you for choosing the Lenovo IdeaPad 15.6-Inch Laptop, model number 81UT00EAUS. With regard to the touchpad, you can make adjustments to the touchpad in your system settings. You can get there by clicking on the magnifying glass at the bottom left of your Windows 10 screen. Type "touchpad" in the search window. Select "Mouse & touchpad settings" from the list of choices. You can make general adjustments to the touchpad there. You can also select "Additional mouse options" for more detailed adjustments to the touchpad sensitivity by increasing the delay of the touchpad.

Posted .Thank you for choosing the Lenovo IdeaPad 15.6-Inch laptop, model number 81UT00EAUS. We are pleased to hear that the value and performance of the IdeaPad 15.6 meets the user's computing needs so well. This is a mid-level, moderate use configuration, with its AMD Ryzen 3 3200U processor. This Dual-Core/Four-Thread processor has a base speed of 2.6GHz and a boost speed of up to 3.5GHz. This configuration has 8GB of DDR4-2400MHz RAM and a 256GB solid state hard drive. It is good with Microsoft Office type programs, internet browsing and other moderate work. This model ships with Windows 10 S-Mode Operating System. Windows 10 S-Mode provides added security by only allowing APPs available ( and therefore certified by Microsoft) at the Microsoft Store. If you don't need the added security or you need to install APPs not available at the Microsoft Store, you can switch to standard Windows 10 Home 64-bit Operating System, at no additional cost.

It freezes a lot..
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When it’s not freezing or having it’s moments of “delays” it can be very fast. But there’s just more times when it freezes. It’s my first laptop so I’m just rolling with the punches until I can save up for a new one.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Lenovo Product Expert
Posted .We hope that the issues you were having with your Lenovo IdeaPad 15.6-Inch Laptop freezing have been successfully resolved by now. If not, 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.

So far so good
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far, so good. I like the feel and spacing of the keyboard, and everything else seems to work as it should. As with most computers, the test is in the durability and continued performance. I don't know how to rate that after only 30 days, so...

Insidious software, cheap materials
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am spoiled by Apple. I needed this notebook for one application. Microsoft 10s did not allow me to download it, nor Adobe reader. Nowhere is it disclosed that you must downgrade from 10s to 10 in order to use your choice of software. At every turn it tries to rope you back to Windows applications. It's tiring and frustrating. Wifi reception is good. On another note, the materials are cheap which I readily admit makes it light but the feel is not there. If I had it to do over again I would not have wasted the cost and would have purchased another Mac and installed VM Ware on a partition.

Really good laptop for the money.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Laptop is pretty snappy due to the 8 GB of RAM and SSD. Worth the extra over lower priced laptops. Build feels a little too cheap but for the price it aint bad. Does have some bloatware and it is in Smode but I reinstalled Windows 10 and now its great
