    Bought this as an alternative to an expensive laptop, just needed moderate use out of it. Good laptop, super quiet! Pros: definitely let’s you tune your car and runs programs pretty good Cons: screen…the screen… Touch works AMAZING BUTT… the screen is dim bro, imagine a display from what was considered modern in a 06 Nissan, the gray is just distracting sometimes, at night it’s cool, but during the day it’s like having an anti glare screen protector, imagine the foggy glass back on an iPhone and that’s the foggy display… but it’s okay at night

    Had this computer for just over a year now and it works really good, does all I need it to do but the battery is already dying fast. So it will only last a few hours on a full charge before it dies

    Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15”

    Was deciding between two Lenovo LTs and the salesperson was knowledgeable on the LTs and the different brands as well as functions that they have. Was leaning towards the more expensive one and he listened to how I was going to use it and recommended a cheaper option. I bought the one he suggested and I love it! It has everything I need on it and then some! This LT will let me get on internet, work from home, and play around. I don’t play games so can’t review that aspect, but the 15” screen would work great! The screen is a touchscreen and anti glare. It also has the numbers keyboard on the side along with the ones on top. I’m loving this LT!!! Would highly recommend.

    Perfect laptop for me! I am not a gamer but this laptop could handle most games. I am an emailer, news reader, and, online shopper. It is beautiful in appearance, function and speed. Price was perfect for me. I wanted a LENOVO over a D--// for years. Finally found my price at Best Buy. Thank you.

      Thank you for choosing the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 Laptop, model number 81X800ENUS. This model ships with a Integrated 35Wh, Lithium-Polymer Battery, which within this 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 conservation Mode 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. Here is a link to instructions for turning off Battery Conservation Mode: https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/solutions/ht103159. 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
