I think this is one of the best newer laptop deals available in the 15.6 inch screen size models. The Intel Core i5-1335U CPU easily handles office, Internet, and light gaming tasks faster and better than competitors in this price range. The 8GB RAM is plenty to start with Windows 11 Home. The IPS picture has vivid colors and dark black compared to gray found on inferior TN screen types. It even has the touch screen feature! I did notice a slight backlight bleed on one edge of the screen but only noticable on a solid black background. I've seen this subtle screen variation on multiple laptops from different manufacturers so it may or may not occur with ANY purchase. I turned OFF the Flip to Start feature which powers the laptop on just by opening the screen hinge. I use the power button instead. Note that the 256GB SSD is fast storage but this part may be supplied by a number of different brands or models. It is kind of an SSD lottery. Mine was made by UMIS, a subsidiary of Lenovo. This laptop has frequently sold out when on sale and I continue to watch Best Buy inventory for other friends and family members needing replacement of older unsupported Windows 10 computers.

I am so happy with my new Lenovo Touchscreen Laptop! It's super fast, looks fantastic, and makes all my daily tasks much easier. This laptop uses a modern Intel Core i5 processor, which is the engine of the computer. It makes everything run really smoothly. When I have open many websites or apps at once, it doesn't slow down. It handles all my school work and home tasks easily.
The best part is the touchscreen. I can just tap the screen to click things, which is much faster and simpler than using the mouse sometimes. It’s perfect for quickly scrolling through documents or photos. The battery life is really good. I can use it for many hours without needing to plug it in, which is great when I take it away from my desk. A big surprise for me is how well it handles gaming. I can connect to Xbox Game Pass and play many games, and the laptop never gets hot. It stays cool and quiet, even when I'm playing for a while.

This is a great laptop for most purposes. The screen is a nice size and it is fairly lightweight and thin. We also got a nice navy blue type color. This is an ideal laptop for browsing the web and most office type work. Not really a gaming laptop, but that's not why we bought it. The display is nice and the battery life is good.

strong value laptop for everyday tasks like browsing, streaming, and office work, praised for its speed, Full HD touchscreen, and lightweight design. However, its 256GB SSD may be limiting for some users, and battery life can be inconsistent. It is not well-suited for demanding tasks like modern gaming or heavy video editing.

Really happy with this one! It runs super smooth for daily tasks like streaming, browsing, and schoolwork. The touchscreen is surprisingly responsive and makes it easy to navigate. Battery life holds up nicely, and it feels lightweight enough to carry around all day. Definitely a solid choice for the price.

I was going to purchase the cheaper used one that they had on sale. After visiting the tacoma washington store the lady in electronics asked me questions about what kind of drive i was looking for and if i was a contemt creator and a few more questions. After taking what she suggested under consideration i decided to purchase the new model which was only about 50$ more and it was exactly what i had used before for school. Thank you. Moves with ease holds a charge for hours and i love the size of the screen.

Intel Core i5 13th laptop for price of Celeron

This Lenovo computer is a very good computer for its price. It is very responsive and since it comes with a Intel Core i5 13th and it should last a few years without needing to buy a new computer because it became too slow. Its speakers are decent for a laptop and touchscreen is decent. Only drawback is its limited hard drive of 256GB but it can easily be upgraded for a fraction of the cost.

I’m liking this laptop really well so far. It’s compact but still large enough to be able to see the screen. I’m only using it for basic home use - no gaming or work. Battery life is sufficient and it doesn’t lag during use. Glad I bought it!

I think the laptop is great for the price. Screen resolution is not the best but it’s good enough, also the speakers are not the best but for the price they are good enough.

In a market saturated with laptops screaming for attention, the IdeaPad 1i is in its own league, standing out with its innovative touchscreen, clear display, and quiet operation. As soon as I laid my hands on it, I knew this was made for users who like a comfortable and versatile design.
However, the real deal is the touchscreen responsiveness. Whether I'm scrolling through web pages, sketching ideas, or working on complex designs, the touchscreen elevates my interaction with the device. Not to mention, the display is as vibrant as a hibiscus in the summer.
Beyond its visual prowess, the laptop is super duper quiet. The fan is supper efficient and makes working in a quiet environment such a serene experience. Overall this laptop is one of the best laptops out there.

It is a nice computer. The screen is bright enough. It is a slim design, not very slim, but it is slim enough. The keyboard is so-so, the keys are not that big, and the numeric keypad is a bit cramped. It has 8 GB of RAM soldered, and it has one available DIMM slot to add another 8GB, so the maximum RAM for this laptop is can be 16GB total. (I tried to add a 16 GB RAM DIMM, but it did not work). The touchscreen works well. You cannot use a stylus for this screen because it is not designed for using a stylus. The Wi-Fi card works OK, but it is not super fast. It has an HDMI port to connect a second screen. It has two USB ports type A, and it also has a USB port type C. I wanted to connect a third screen to the USB port type C with an HDMI to USB type C adapter, but it did not work. This USB port type C does not transmit video. It also has an SD card reader slot. The sound that the laptop speakers produces is decent, not great. This computer works very well for office work and for using streaming services. It is OK for some light basic games, but not for advanced graphics games. The batter life is good, you can get 6 hours of use on average. If you can buy this laptop at a discount (I bought for $329) it is a good buy!
