    Pretty good laptop. For the price you can’t really beat all the features it comes with. It’s obviously not going to be a premium laptop with premium quality features, but this is such a great laptop for someone who is going to only need this for light usage.

    A couple glaring issues, very low volume and not lighted keys. I can live without lighted keys but the low volume is bad. Will see if Best Buy really cares, will they respond.

      Hi xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, thanks for choosing Lenovo! Regarding the low volume, if you're sure that the system volume is set as high as it can go, yet the sound is still low, check the app you're using to see if it has set volume controls. If both volume settings are set to high, yet it falls below your satisfaction, this may be a limitation in hardware for you. Feel free to reach out to Lenovo Support for assistance if need be. We appreciate you sharing your perspective and feedback with us. Lenovo

    Good Laptop After Deactivating Windows S Mode

    This laptop works very well for light gaming and streaming. It took multiple attempts to deactivate Windows S mode. Once the full Windows 11 was enabled, the laptop had full functionality.

    Disappointing Battery Life

    |

    Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I recently purchased this laptop, hoping for a reliable and efficient laptop for my daily use. While the laptop performs reasonably well in terms of speed and functionality, I am extremely disappointed with its battery life. From the specifications and reviews, I expected the battery to last at least 10 hours with moderate use. Unfortunately, my experience has been far from that. Even with basic tasks like browsing the web, checking emails, and using office applications, the battery barely lasts 3-4 hours on a full charge. This is a significant inconvenience, especially when I need to work on the go or during travel. I've tried adjusting the power settings, reducing screen brightness, and closing unnecessary applications, but none of these measures have made a noticeable difference. It's frustrating to have to carry around the charger everywhere and constantly look for power outlets.

      Hi, ZaeM. We are sorry to hear that the battery life of your IdeaPad has fallen short of your expectations. With a processor that has moderate power draw and entry level with a smaller battery, battery can drain in 3-4 hours as you experienced. Putting your device to sleep in between use can be another way to stretch battery. In the future, we recommend reviewing more premium systems that have a larger battery and better power efficiency since this aspect is so important to you. If there is any way we can help, please feel free to contact Lenovo Support online or over the phone. We appreciate you taking the time to share your perspective with us. Lenovo

    It’s fine. A little slow, the size of it makes switching between a smaller laptop and it a bit harder, as the key spacing is larger. Battery life is pretty mid

    Not the best battery

    Bought this laptop due to my old MacBook running slow and battery dying quickly. Have had this one for about 4 months and the battery isn’t great at all. I find myself having to charge it everyday or every other day just to keep up with the demands of work and school. If I could go back I would have definitely purchased a different laptop
