    This laptop's specs have all the capabilities of meeting my entertainment needs as well as being able to handle a fairly medium workload for business. This in my opinion is a true definition of "best bang for the buck".

    Great value for the price and the purposes I needed it for. The integrated graphics and i5 processor work great for older games or newer ones on low graphics settings. Battery life is subpar however and the need to press function in order to use the Fx keys can be annoying.

      Hey ChanceC,

      Thank you for choosing Lenovo and for sharing your feedback with us!

      We are glad to hear that your IdeaPad 1i offers great value to you and that it meets your needs.

      Regarding the Fn key use, we apologize for the annoyance that this has caused you. We'd like to help improve your experience with this, and we believe that by enabling FnLock may help. To enable this, press the Fn + Esc (FnLock) keys simultaneously. Now all Fn keys will be active without the need for a key combination to be pressed.

      Please feel free to reach out to us should you have any questions or need assistance.

      Hey DeniseR, thanks for choosing Lenovo!

      Regarding your issue with battery life – 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.

      We are glad to hear that you are satisfied with the functionality and value of your IdeaPad 1i. We appreciate you taking the time to share this with us. Lenovo
