Not so good unit
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was not satisfied with this device, I see 2 problems - 1. When I try to play some 4K videos I was left with a blank screen and I have to restart the machine. 2. The machine restarts in middle of the work, that too I was working with some online applications not installing any stand alone apps.

Really not the best
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this computer cause my last one was glitching really badly but this one is barely any better. Bought it for school but the battery only lasts and hour after being fully charged even with battery saver on. It keeps restarting and closing out all my tabs and windows for school so I'm constantly having to reopen the same tabs and it continuously kicks me off of every wi-fi. I barely use it because of how bad it is and yet it says I'm out of storage when I store next to nothing on here.

DO NOT BUY LENOVO LAPTOPS. THEY ARE GARBAGE.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am never buying Lenovo laptops ever again. Big mistake. We buy laptops for mobility & portability. For that the Wi-Fi has to work in these laptops. I bought 2 Lenovo laptops within a month. Both of them having the same problem. Wi-Fi drops every few minutes and you have to restart the laptop to get Wi-Fi to work every time. It beats the purpose of buying a laptop.

Screen stopped working
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this laptop 2 months ago, and the display screen already stopped working. I purchased the Premium Care warranty with onsite support, but I was told to mail in my device to the depot for repairs, despite having onsite support warranty. Even after depot repair, the screen problem continued, and they want me to mail it in again. I would not recommend this product, or Lenovo.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendPrepare to have a desk top. Constantly on charger.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The battery on this laptop is complete trash!! It doesn't even last a full day and I'm not even using it more than 2 hours. When using it you can literally watch the battery life count down, just draining. I mean other than that it's a decent laptop. I'd give it a 4 star but it's so ridiculous every time I go to reach for it is dead.

Posted .Hey LisaC, we're sorry to hear that the battery life on your IdeaPad has been poor for you. Regarding this, there are many variables that contribute to shorter battery life. Thankfully, many of those variables can be adjusted. By default, the system will tend to give more speed when needed, which can sacrifice battery life. If you want to squeeze out more battery life, we recommend users utilize the Lenovo Vantage application that is preinstalled to adjust settings related to power and battery performance (to access relevant settings, open Vantage > Device Settings > Power). Users can also take advantage of the keyboard shortcut, Fn + Q to toggle thermal modes and easily switch between prioritizing battery life or power, or even the best of both worlds.

Posted .Hey Howard,
We're sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with your experience using the IdeaPad 1i.
To try to resolve this, first, when you say you couldn't access Google, are you referring to the Google Chrome browser or the search engine? If the latter, you can adjust your preferred search engine in the Microsoft Edge browser. If the former, you will not be able to download applications like the Chrome browser without system modification.
For clarification, S mode – is a more secure, lighter version of the Windows 11 Operating System that only allows the downloading of applications from the Microsoft Store. If you try to launch or install an executable or .exe file, the system prevents it.
Should you desire to switch to Windows 11 Home to download the software of your choosing, here is a link to a Microsoft webpage that shares how to do so: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-10-and-windows-11-in-s-mode-faq-851057d6-1ee9-b9e5-c30b-93baebeebc85
Now regarding battery life, if you want to squeeze out more battery life, we recommend utilizing the Lenovo Vantage application that is preinstalled to adjust settings related to power and battery performance (to access relevant settings, open Vantage > Device Settings > Power). You can also take advantage of the keyboard shortcut, Fn + Q to toggle thermal modes and easily switch between prioritizing battery life or power, or even the best of both worlds.

Disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I ended up returning the laptop. It was not a smooth transition from my MacBook to this one. The keys feel very cheap and the trackpad was horrible. It also delayed too much for me to use for work.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worst purchase only because of Windows 11. Windows 11 apparently has this thing called “S mode” which makes the laptop unusable in support of certain applications to download.

Privacy Zero - Windows 11
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I will be retuning it. Having to put in my email address just setting it up. A lot of privacy issue float around with Windows 11. Most disapointing Best Buy is not able to do any thing about it.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Between Best Buy and Lenovo, you couldn't spell customer service, let alone practice it. Lenovo sends me the wrong Product Restore drive, then tells me that Best Buy can provide it. I have to drive 100 miles each way to find out that the Geek Squad will fix my computer in a few days (none of which they mentioned when I spoke to them about when to bring my pc in), for $100 (also not mentioned). Never buying a Lenovo, and never shopping at Besst Buy again

Disaster
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought an open box to save a few dollars. The computer was in demo mode and locked with a different person’s password and username. The geek squad was no help and wants to charge me extra to fix it. I cannot access my computer. The whole thing is a disaster
