The little engine that could!

The only downside I saw was that this comes in S mode. I did not realize until I started using it. I deactivated never the less with no issues. Highly recomend!

Good, but a few critiques.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this for my daughter because her school issued Chromebook wasn't cutting the mustard. For all of her school tasks (Google Classroom,, Zoom, and other 3rd-party learning web sites) it does great. 2 critiques to be cautions of: 1) The battery life is poor. She's using this at home only. It wouldn't last a school day on a charge. The display is large and is of good quality for the money, but the battery life takes a hit. 2) I created multiple accounts on the computer. If you do this, be sure to log out when you are done (not "switch user"). Even if I close out of everything, if my daughter logs in without logging me out the computer slows down considerably. This is a lower-end laptop, but I wasn't expecting this.

Not bad..
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I did not realize it was only 8Gigs of memory so I had to get an external hard drive to compensate. Other than that.. I feel it's a good quality basic laptop.. fast and does what it's supposed to do.

Absolute Best Value Computer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I went to Best Buy looking to buy a iPad Pro 12.9 keyboard. My main computer is a desktop I built earlier this year. I wanted something to be able to do school work and Microsoft office on the go. It was cheaper to buy this laptop than the apple keyboard, and I wanted a number pad for excel. As far as basic usability goes this thing knocks it out of the park. I’m impressed the speed and specs of this $300 laptop. You can have multiple internet tabs open, word, excel, and another program and it doesn’t slow down a bit. A lightning fast 2.5 second boot time. Cons (nit picking) screen is average, trackpad is meh, cheap plastic body, low spec processor, and no backlit keys.

Bang for the buck
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bang for the bucks. Good storage and fast. Display is pretty good so is construction for the price. This I think beats any other laptop in this price range, prolly in the $100 more range.

Great Price and functionality
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A little large but can’t beat the price. I’m not a fan of how the keyboard is configured but I got used to it I use it for my business and it gets the job done.

works well
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent value. More than adequate for web browsing, word processing. Screen is good. I wish the battery can last longer. I usually get about 4 - 5 hours of use on a full charge.

Posted .Hello. Thank you for choosing the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 laptop model # 81WE011UUS. This unit has a battery life of up to 7.5 hours. If you are getting substantially less battery life, please adjust your screen brightness settings. A setting of 100% brightness will drain your battery much faster than a lower setting. We recommend setting the screen brightness to some value below 100% that is still comfortable for you to view. Next 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 10 computer and how to manage them for better system performance: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-prevent-apps-running-background-windows-10. Then, finally, be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 10. 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 left of your Windows 10 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.
