    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.

    Too simple and restrictive

    Windows 11 in S mode is too restrictive. Disabling it slowed the machine down even further taking 15+ seconds to open a simple browser without having any apps open

      Hello, user438656, we are sorry to hear that you have had a poor experience with your IdeaPad 1i 14. This IdeaPad 1i is an entry level, light use system with an Intel Celeron N4020 processor, with a base speed of 1.1GHz and a boost speed of up to 2.8GHz, 4GB of RAM and a 64GB eMMC drive, for quick access to files and programs. This model ships with Windows 11 Home in S-Mode Operating System, for a more secure, lighter version of the Windows 11 Operating System due to the computer’s entry level specifications. When switching out of S-Mode, the full spectrum of the Windows 11 Home software is unlocked and additional resources are needed to run the operating system as effectively as it would when in S-Mode. We recommend you check the requirements and compatibility of any software you will be installing on your computer or know what specifications and features you need to effectively complete various workflows and tasks if being use for work, education, or personal use before you invest in any computer to help ensure that you find the right fit. Lenovo
