    A nice and capable laptop at a dirt cheap price.

    The 14 inches HD screen shows very fine details of my photos. The CPU takes a little longer time to process, but is capable of doing most of the routine works. The laptop is thin, stylish and decent, felt like something far more than one hundred dollars can buy.

    Nothing can beat the price. It’s pretty great for what I paid for. Runs everyday apps pretty smooth. Sleek and stylish. Battery gives me a whole day with a use of about 10 hours a day.

    Lenovo is not a good choice for Linux use...

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

    I kinda knew that Lenovo (along with HP) work very hard to make the buyers of their machines only use Windows operating systems. I bought this laptop anyway, and I wish now that I had listened to my better sense and stayed with ASUS and Dell for use with Linux operating systems. This new Lenovo after installing Linux Mint, blocked use of the wifi and bluetooth. I did manage to get the bluetooth enabled, but rather than compiling and installing the driver for the wifi, I'm just going to resort to the easy fix and use my plug-n-play usb wifi adapter dongle. If you only ever intend to use Windows, this Lenovo might be okay, but imho 64gb storage isn't adequate for most Windows users; 128gb at least would be better. (Also, I tried Ubuntu to bypass the wifi blockage, without success.) Wait for good sale prices on ASUS 64 or 128gb, or Dell any gb size drive, if you want machines that allow you to run whatever you want to use.

    I bought this on Cyber Monday for $100, free shipping plus $8+ tax. I have had it 18 days. The display screen is fine for text, but poor for pictures. I have not tried adding a slaved monitor yet. It is set up to be a Microsoft only machine. It will take some work to add Mozilla as a browser. For now, I only use it as a supplementary device for email and news. Speed is mediocre, and likely not all due to my mediocre Internet connection. It is certainly worth what I paid for it, and somewhat more than that.

    Can't Beat this Basic Laptop at it's Sale Price!

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

    Good little laptop (especially at the black friday price) of 100USD. Very VERY entry grade laptop, solid state. It has done everything i have asked of it from watching YouTube, Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, Prime Video, and also playing older games (I've played Sonic Adventure 2, Phantasy Star Online Blue Blue Ephinea, and some random emulators so far, full speed) Works good, wish the screen had a bit more upper limit to its brightness. The keyboard has that weird lenovo shifted feeling to it, but the more you use it the better it feels. Just understand this is a computer for daily tasks like work processing, internet browsing and shopping and watching movies on. Would grab another in a heartbeat.

    I think this is a perfect laptop for surfing the internet, watching Hulu, Netflix and other similar streaming services as well as social media apps. Good for light gaming ( no graphic heavy games) and everything a student will need. Zippy laptop. Windows 11

      This Lenovo IdeaPad 1i 14 Laptop is an entry-level, light workload configuration. It ships with Windows 11 S-Mode, 64-bit Operating System installed. Windows 11 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 11 Home 64-bit Operating System, at no additional cost. We always recommend you check the requirements and compatibility of any software/games you will be installing on your new computer, before you invest in any computer. Be sure your new computer can support the software/games you will need to use and your workload. Lenovo

    Bargain priced, but...

    I bought this laptop because there's software out there I can't run on my Chromebook. I like how small and light it is, but Windows is still Windows, slow and clunky, even though it's on eMMC. Wait for this to load, wait for that to update... ugh! I miss not having a side keypad a little. I did not have any problems with the screen angle issues others have reported. All in all, it's a nice little Windows machine for $99.

    Laptop has a fair screen and is not a preformance machine but it does work and can make good use of OneDrive. Probably would have been much better with 128GB storage and a little more memory. I got wat I wanted tohoug a Nice Windows 11 machine to look over and work with before upgrading my main machine.
