    Pros: Great value, has a really competent CPU, easily upgradable RAM and SSD. Any M.2 drive would work. The existing SSD is a pcie4.0 ssd so that's pretty cool too. Also has a handy touch screen. Really good build quality for the price. Cons: No backlit keyboard, touchpad is kinda small and not the smoothest, no fingerprint sensor.

    A Good Cheap Computer

    This is a really good cheap computer. In spite of blah-blah-blah about fancy technical semantics the bottom line is that it works quite well for typical uses. Nope, it's not going to work for (blah-blah) finite element analysis but it will work nicely for the plebeian needs of mere mortal users. A caveat is that its (uh, native) operating system is a Windows 11 variant called "S" which places potentially severe constraints on what "apps" (programs) it will run. Not to worry since it provides a built-in no cost upgrade to normal Windows 11.

    Highly Satisfied Upgrader

    I currently am transitioning from a 12-year-old Lenovo laptop with Windows 10 and am forced to upgrade to a Windows laptop with Windows 11 to have ongoing support from Microsoft due to the end of support for Windows 10 in October 2025. I was extremely pleased to discover that Best Buy was offering the Lenovo laptop with my preferred configuration, at a special discount because the laptop was OPEN BOX. The condition of my new Lenovo Ideapad 1i is as described in the offer as "excellent". The performance is remarkably faster due to the latest Intel Core i3 processor and SSD storage. Overall, this new laptop is an exceptional value particularly when compared to new laptop prices of similar configurations. I suggest if you are shopping for any computer needs consider all options provided by Best Buy for your total satisfaction! I also recommend Lenovo laptops because of my long term (12 years) experience with their exceptional laptop - G570.
