    I love this product. It is lightweight, has the traditional 16/9 screen ratio unlike the new weird ones. Does not have the ridiculous copilot button instead of the right ctrl which is frustrating in many new ones. It has everything needed in a portable laptop. I returned a gaming laptop before this and it was a great decision. Just buy a ps5 if you want gaming, gaming laptops are not portable and embarrassing with their fan noise. I like the touch screen too. This is a lot of laptop for its price. The color is nice too, it looks better in person. The case is prone to handprints but it is not too bad.

    So far great! Love it. Got this on discount paid $461 including tax. Any price higher, probably wouldn't recommend it. But thanks to Best Buy for always having deals. with the i5 intel processor with 16GB RAM, it works great for multitasking plus I love the Abyss Blue color.

    Needs to Upgraded to align with current Technology

    The laptop is decent at the price point but supports only 1 external display which is a bummer. There are many out there cheaper than this and yet support multiple external displays. The processing power is good and but it definitely needs to be upgraded with current technology. We cannot have multiple limitations on features and yet charge a higher price point. This is more like Chrome with some additional RAM & SSD.

      Hey there,

      Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with the existing port selection of this IdeaPad 1i. We wish to provide the best experience possible, so if you'd like to work with us, we'd like to work with you to address this pain point and improve your experience with your IdeaPad.

      Regarding your comment on the number of displays supported, this chipset can support up to 4 total displays (including the laptop display) via its HDMI port and by using a USB dock or hub that supports dual-monitor video output, yet does not rely on DisplayPort Alt Mode for video output, since this IdeaPad does not feature a USB-C port that supports DP Alt Mode.

      We hope that the information shared helps provide some insight and understanding that may improve your sentiments on the system.
      Please let us know what we else we can do to try to improve your experience, as your satisfaction is important to us.

      Best regards,
      Lenovo Lenovo

    This laptop occasionally turns on and the screen is black but it has the password option so its like delayed i guess on the graphic. i do not know the fancy stuff around it like ram or cpu or stuff like that but this laptop is average. the screen seems dim even at above middle brightness. i dont like that. and retains battery for like idk 4 hours . its a dang laptop how is it it only last so little? I got it at a "deal" and paid like idk $450 i think

      Hi Jaesie,

      Thanks for choosing Lenovo and for sharing your feedback with us. We understand your perspective, and we'd like to work with you to try to improve your experience.

      To start regarding battery performance, system efficiency and bugs, we recommend ensuring you have the latest software by checking for updates, as this could correct the issue. To do so, first, open the Settings app > Select the Windows update tab > Select the Check for updates button, apply all available updates. Next, open the Lenovo Vantage app > on the homepage, select the Check for updates button, following on-screen prompts to apply all available updates here as well.

      Also with battery life, 4 hours is common for users of this system, as there are many components that can simultaneously draw power from the system. Also, 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 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.

      Please let us know what we can do to help improve your experience, as your satisfaction is important to us.

      Best regards,
      Lenovo Lenovo

    I’ve been using the Lenovo Ideapad 1i for a few weeks now, and I’m really impressed with the overall value. The Intel Core i5-1334U processor and 16GB of RAM handle multitasking smoothly—I can stream, browse, and work on documents without any lag. The 512GB SSD makes boot-up and file access super fast. The 15.6” Full HD touchscreen is crisp and responsive, which makes navigating and working much easier, especially when I’m not using a mouse. The Abyss Blue color gives it a premium look and stands out from the usual silver or black options. Battery life is solid, and it’s light enough to carry around easily for school or work. I’d highly recommend this laptop to students, remote workers, or anyone looking for a reliable, budget-friendly option with great performance.
