    Love the size, keyboard and the number pad. Disappointed that I had to buy a flash drive because there is no room on the drive because the operating system takes up most of the space. Now I have to constantly switch from plugging in the drive and the printer. It's a real hassle. This laptop was the same size as my old one, so I figured it would be ok to transfer some of my files to it. It crashed.

      Hi, SaraA. We're sorry to hear that the storage capacity fell short for you. You could swap out and clone the existing drive for a larger one should you desire more internal storage. We are glad to hear that your IdeaPad is otherwise working out alright for you. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. Lenovo

    I bought this laptop for my aunt, but it came with Windows 11 Home in S mode and a local account without admin privileges. Logging in with my aunt’s account was impossible. When I tried to install Windows 11 using the official installation tool, it automatically reinstalled Windows 11 in S mode again, and the Wi-Fi driver wasn’t working. So, I had to use Rufus to install Windows 10 Home and connect an Ethernet cable using a USB adapter to update the drivers. In the end, I managed to fix everything, but I was expecting a laptop ready to use out of the box, especially since it was bought for a music event. I ended up spending around 4 hours solving all these issues.
