    Bought this as a Birthday gift for my wife. She loves it. She uses it for for regular use and also when she decides to work from home. She likes the fact that it has 10 key and also the touch screen. She would recommend this computer to anyone.

    Excellent computer. Lately, lenovo computers have become hit or miss but this one is just perfect for the price. I'd prefer dell but the good dell models are really pricy. This one is affordable but at the same time sleek

    I bought this for $349 which is a pretty good price compared to its original price $499. I am very happy with this laptop so far, very fast bootup and works faster, like touch screen. Only thing it lacks is, it is not full HD, but that's ok.

    Its faster than what I replaced I'm still getting use to it. It boots up fast. The screen is not as vivid as my MAC. and I have not figured out how to change it. Maybe As I get acquainted with it I can give a better review

    This laptop is a very good laptop for that $350 that i bought it for. At that price, I would recommend anyone who, needs a a laptop, to get this one. Do not like how the laptop comes in safe mode, but for most, this should not be an issue.

    Better than expected. I go through laptops every 3-4 years so tend not to invest too much in any one. So far, I like the screen size and speed of processor. I wont come close to needing to use the storage provided. Lightweight.

    So far so good. Computer was easy to setup. It loads quickly. Bought it for my son. Only negatives so far are the power cord with the huge head makes no sense and the battery life is not as great as I would hope.

      Hello. Thank you for choosing the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 laptop model # 81WE00NKUS. 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 Lenovo

    I can't say whether this computer is outstanding or that the computer it replaced was just awful (slowest thing I've ever had to deal with!) but my joy from having made the purchase is worth the five-star rating. No complaints!

    Seems to be an excellent value at full price, and I was able to get it on sale. Instant boot-up, and good battery life when new. We’ll see how that holds up. Plenty of computer for my small consulting business.

    Was a bit slower than I anticipated so I returned this one. Also, wonderfully thin for a 15" model but I miss having a Cat 6 port so make sure you buy a dongle:) Overall, very nice inexpensive machine :)

    Coming from an older and much slower laptop, it is a delight to use a device with speed and doesn't lock up. Setting it up went fairly well considering I am not very tech savvy. I definitely recommend this laptop to others.

    Excellent value, very fast to start and shut down. I have been using Chrome and am not used to MS Windows S. There is a learning curve. Not as rugged/solid as my old Latitude 630, so it is lighter. Good for travelling.
