Love It
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was a good computer my first Lenovo and the only issue that I had was that I bought it at a good price so in essence they only had 256 gigs and that was the reason why I traded in for one was 512g. Beautiful and sophisticated laptop.

Just what we needed!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We were on the lookout for an entry level laptop that would allow us mainly to surf the Internet (fast), and do a minimal amount of processing. So far, so good! The computer also looks nice, feels solid, so all in all this was the right buy for us. Recommended by a BEST BUY employee - truly great service!

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Thought this computer wouldnt be perfect because of the memory size but boy was i wrong. 8GB RAM and the 256GB SSD make it run like a super computer for my school work which is exactly what i needed it for.

Returned. Battery poor & fan loud.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had to return. The 3rd time using this and the battery lasted less than 2 hours! Bought to replace a laptop I can only use plugged in so no point in using this one. The fan was also quite loud and the system ran slow. At least the return was quick and I got my money back.

Posted .The Lenovo IdeaPad 15.6-Inch Laptop, model number 81UT00EAUS, ships with a 2CELL_35WH_INTERNAL, Lithium Polymer Battery, with a battery life of up to 4 hours, depending on the work the device is performing. If you are only getting 2 hours of battery life, and the fan is running all the time, be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 10. Incompatible software will drain the battery at a faster rate and will increase the system workload, forcing the fan to run more often. 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.

Light use office computer
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this as a spare laptop for my office. I use it very lightly so this isn't the most qualified review for someone looking into this as a daily use computer. But I've had no problems, easy set up, & battery life is sufficient for what the few hrs at a time I use it.
