Great deal on a great laptop!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My daughter needed a laptop so I went into OCD mode and after numerous hours searching, found this laptop at Best Buy to be the best bang for the buck. Imagine my surprise when we go to the store and found they had an open box buy deal! We got it for nearly $100 less than we thought we'd have to pay. Thanks BB!

Excellent value i3 Laptop
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great laptop for all around office and productivity work. The 8th generation Intel i3 chipset combined with SSD handles office tasks with ease and delivers web content quickly. Keyboard is great to type on. Touchpad is ok. USB C is a bonus. I would prefer an Ethernet port, but there are USB adapters if needed.

It's a good laptop
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a great laptop for doing light works, like for office. More then enough power for daily uses. But the big miss is it has a small hard drive, 128GB, not enough. After Win10 installed, you'll have around 96gb left. But for the price I paid for, can't complain. It's a good deal.

Great price for a decent laptop
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this as the main computer for my sister for her work. All she does is respond to email, and other work related web-based stuff. The screen resolution is low, and the batter life isn't that good. Hence minus the 1 star. Otherwise, this is very good for the low price.

There is a 2CELL 30WH, 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, be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 10. 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 programing 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.

Great for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This laptop is pretty basic and simple to use. I use it mostly for homework. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because the battery life isn't the best. If fully charged it will last for a few hours at best. It boots up pretty fast too. Overall, its a great laptop for the price.

Great computer for the money
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replaced a much more expensive laptop that had a hard drive crash. This computer turns on 5 times faster, has greater speeds, and is just better overall. The Battery life is good and the screen quality is great. I made the decision of this computer over a Chromebook and I am glad that I did.

Good Laptop for My Use
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A few weeks ago I was in the market to finally replace our 8+ year old HP laptop. (It gave us many good years!) Anyway, I was looking for something decently priced that would suffice for my use - which is basic MS Office duty and web surfing. My only other requirements were that it needed to have a decent processor and a SSD. After having several HPs (laptop and desktops) over these many years, I decided to give the Lenovo 330S-15IKB 15.6" Laptop - Intel Core i5 - 8GB Memory - 128GB Solid State Drive Gray 81F5018TUS a whirl. I had heard and read some good things about Lenovo, so I figured "why not"? So far I have been pretty pleased with the purchase. It is sleek, lightweight, and fast enough for our use. The only drawback I've experienced so far is that the fan seems to cycle on and off pretty frequently, but that's a minor annoyance (but it's also why I gave it 4 stars. For basic PC needs/use, I would recommend this laptop.

This is a high performance system with its Intel Core i5-8250U processor and 8GB of RAM. It will generate heat whenever it is turned on, even at idle, this is normal. The onboard fan will maintain the proper operating temperature for the device. You will hear the fan whenever it runs, this too is normal. This configuration is good for many of today's most demanding programs, browsing the internet with multiple tabs open. If this describes your computing needs, the IdeaPad 330s-15 is a great choice.

Great speed. Needs better battery life.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to carry due to its light weigh. I use this computer at least 6 hours every day, yes Sat. and Sun.'s and the only fault I see is the work I do eats into my battery life even saying this the battery lasts longer than the last two computer I had. This is the best computer I have owned to date.

Posted .The Lenovo IdeaPad 330s-15 laptop ships with a 2CELL 30WH, Lithium Polymer Battery, with a battery life of 7 hours, depending on the work the device is performing. To maximize battery life, first adjust your battery saver settings. Here is a link to instruction for doing this in Windows 10:  https://www.digitalcitizen.life/how-use-configure-battery-saver-windows-10. Next, to maximize battery life, be sure there are no unwanted programs running in the background, draining the battery. Here is a link to some tips for finding out what is draining your battery:
https://www.laptopmag.com/articles/battery-saver-windows-10. Also, to maximize battery life, try changing your power management setting to a more conservative one. You can do this in the control panel, in the power management category on your system. Select a more conservative power management setting to extend battery life. Finally, if the battery life does not improve, a battery reset may help. Here is a link to instructions for reconditioning a non-removable battery, using the Battery Management Software installed on the computer.
