    Good one day value deal. Larger screen than most for a basic daily use laptop. I only own about 6 weeks and it serves me well. This is for my personal and light school work for my job. Battery life lasts only a few hours with fully charged. But for price, I can live with it.

      Thank you for choosing the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 Laptop, model number 81X800ENUS. This model configuration ships with a Integrated 35Wh, Lithium-Polymer Battery, which within this model configuration, has a battery life of up to 6 hours, depending on the work the device is performing. If you are getting substantially less battery life, first, set your screen brightness at less than 100-percent - try 80-percent to start with. Then, be sure Battery Charge Threshold is turned off. This power management setting should only be used when the laptop is plugged in all the time. It will prolong overall battery life by only charging the battery to 60-percent of capacity. You can turn off Battery Charge Threshold within the Lenovo Vantage APP installed on this computer. In Vantage select Battery Settings and turn off Battery Charge Threshold, if turned on. Also check what programs are running in the background on the computer. Be sure only the programs you want running in the background are. These programs will drain the battery. Here is a link to information about how to find out what programs are running in the background on your Windows 11 computer and how to manage them for better system performance: https://websiteforstudents.com/how-to-find-what-is-running-in-windows-11/. Then, finally, be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 11. Incompatible software will drain the battery at a faster rate. There is no need to install Microsoft Office software. The software is already part of the operating system, you just need to activate the software with a purchased product key. If you have installed a copy of Microsoft Office, this is conflicting with the existing copy on the system and this will slow your system down. If you have installed a 3rd party anti-virus program, be sure that Windows Defender is turned off and that the trial version of McAfee Anti-Virus software is uninstalled. There can only be one anti-virus program on the system. You may need to restore your system to original factory default settings if any of the programming errors have occurred. You can do that by typing "restore" in the Cortana search window. Just click on the magnifying glass icon at the bottom of your Windows 11 Desktop. Click on "Reset This PC" Then click on "Get Started" and follow the on screen directions to restore to factory defaults. If the problem persists, we recommend you contact Lenovo Tech Support at: 877-453-6686. Lenovo

    Excellent price for a computer that is quite adequate for basic home needs. It only has an i3 processor which may be inadequate for heavy users. It also comes in S mode which only allows you to use it with Microsoft apps like Edge and not Google. Switching out of S mode a simple and after doing that I can install Google and anything else I want on it. The great price makes this annoying step worthwhile.

      Thank you for choosing the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 Laptop, model number 81X800KLUS. This Model ships with Windows 11 S-Mode, 64-bit Operating System installed. Windows 11 S-Mode provides added security by only allowing APPs available ( and therefore certified by Microsoft) at the Microsoft Store. If you don't need the added security or you need to install APPs not available at the Microsoft Store, you can switch to standard Windows 11 Home 64-bit Operating System, at no additional cost. If you choose to switch out of S-Mode for Windows 11 Home: Here is a link to instructions for switching from Windows 11 S-Mode to Windows 11 Home:  https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4456067/windows-10-switch-out-of-s-mode. We are pleased to hear that the value and performance of the IdeaPad 3 15 meets your computing needs so well. Lenovo

    I am a graduate student, and needed a new laptop. I like the laptop. The screen is a great size, and it functions well. Downside: low battery life and the edge of the laptop is a little sharp, and irritates my forearm. The display color is not great.

    Perfect for anyone looking for a fast/decent computer for the basics. Got this for my grandfather who only checks email, does his medical stuff, taxes, and maybe watch a video. Super fast compared ro what he had before and the touch screen is a plus. Highly recommend.

    I love this laptop. It was easy to set up & it's very, very fast. I wasn't sure if I could connect it to my Canon printer, but it was very easy to connect via USB cord. I was going to switch it out of S Mode, but now I'll keep it as is. I have no complaints. It's perfect for me.

    Purchased this laptop for school and it is perfect. Doesn’t have the fastest processor or a huge amount of memory, but it is absolutely perfect for my needs. I love it’s size and it’s not too heavy to carry in my backpack. Highly recommend. Especially at the price.
