Gets the job done.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got a great deal on this computer for Black Friday. The one I originally received had a screen issue, so I had to take it back and reorder it. The current one works great. It's not top of the line, but it gets the job done and I can even play a few games on it too. The battery life is very short if playing games, but otherwise it is fine.

Great value but poor quality control.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just bought this laptop today and returned a similar Lenovo Core i3 configuration of the same model. It looks like a no brainer upgrading from a Core i3 to Core i5 and getting 12GB of RAM for less than $50. However, I'm finding this particular laptop has a loose track pad towards the bottom. The entire bottom of the pad moves up and down a few millimeter which makes the pad click feel awful. I don't mind spending the time setting up a new system but having to return it again is just a pain. Lenovo QC needs to do a much better job inspecting the unit before boxing it up and haphazardly sending it to the store. Perhaps this is why it's on sale?

Posted .The touchpad on the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 Laptop, model number 81WE00NKUS, has a click functionality at the front (the part closest to the user) left and right of the touchpad. This area functions as the left and right buttons on a mouse would function. The touchpad is supposed to depress in this area. You can make adjustments to the touchpad in your system settings. You can get there by clicking on the magnifying glass at the bottom left of your Windows 10 screen. Type "touchpad" in the search window. Select "Mouse & touchpad settings" from the list of choices. You can make general adjustments to the touchpad there. You can also select "Additional mouse options" for more detailed adjustments to the touchpad sensitivity by increasing the delay of the touchpad. If you continue to have issues, we recommend you call Lenovo Tech Support at: 877-453-6686.

Budget laptop with bad display
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is good budget laptop for home and school use. The hardware specifications with core i5 and 12 gb ram is great. The display however is very bad. The picture looks blurry. I decided to use it with a good monitor. The laptop looks sleek and stylish. It comes with 1 HDMI Port and 3 USB port. Not having a USB-C port is a major drawback as most of the devices need USB-C now a days. The 2 cell battery is also a disappointing as it does not last long. Overall good for light use. The laptop comes with windows 10 home edition. I had to opt out of a mode to install chrome. The laptop keeps freezing for unknown reasons.

Posted .The Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 Laptop, model number 81WE00NKUS, ships with a 15.6-Inch (screen size measured diagonally) TN, LCD w/LED Backlight (Anti-glare) screen, with a resolution of 1366 X 768 (HD) and a brightness level of 220 nits. This model ships with Windows 10 S-Mode Operating System. Windows 10 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 10 Home 64-bit Operating System, at no additional cost. Even if you have switched out of S-Mode Windows 10 should not freeze. Be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 10. Incompatible software will drain your battery faster and cause Windows 10 to freeze. 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. This model ships with a 2CELL_35WH_INTERNAL, Lithium Polymer Battery, with a battery life of up to 7 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 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.

So far so good
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far so great! I love these computers. I got two of these for my children and they are just loving them. They are easy to use. I am hoping the last one I purchased which is refurbished one will last at least 2 years. I have had my Apple since 2011 and it is still blasting like it is brand new. So, I am hoping that Lenovo is competitive in that area.

Great laptop.
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent computer for the money. It's been over 2 years and the computer still operates fast. Only downfalls is windows S. You can't download any programs, so you're forced to remove it almost immediately, so why bother having it in the first place?

Poorly built
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So by now you guys would have read the reviews and realized the battery sucks. Sound isn't too good either because the speakers are under the bottom of the front part. When I just got it I had the battery die then charged it fully. I turned it on and was trying to change the password and got a grey screen that would not come off until I forced the laptop off. I think it's poorly built because in theory with the RAM and processor it should be great. The only pro for me is that it is fast.

Posted .We are sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 Laptop, model number 81WE00NKUS. Windows 10 should not produce a grey screen after fully charging the battery.

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.

Great laptop, especially for older population
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was purchased for my boyfriend’s mother. After some in-store assistance from an employee (who also advised us to wait until the next day for a sale), this was our selection. Set up was super easy. The screen size is large and perfect for her! She loves that it’s also a touchscreen. She hasn’t owned it very long but is very pleased with it so far!
