    Black screen in 2 weeks

    It was an inexpensive laptop that i was happy with...for 2 whole weeks. I started getting a black screen that would only go away after restarting the cpu. Then the font on the pages became blurred. It looked like the letters had a double strike on a typewriter (yes, I'm old). I took it back for a no hassle return.

    Software connectivity disappointment.

    Although it is doing what I bought it for it's only been a few weeks and I've already experienced a problem with software connectivity. It did follow an automatic update but the black screen of death was a disappointment to say the least. Thankfully my Son was able to get it working again but I'm fearful it will happen again.

    I would not recommend this laptop. Spend a little more on a computer that will last more than a year. I bought this at a back to school sale in August 2023. I started receiving blue screen errors in December 2023. Over the last couple of months I have sent the computer in 3 times to have the blue screen errors resolved. I finally think that is fixed, but now it is moving extremely slow. This was never an issue before. Only after receiving it back from the 3rd time at the repair center. At this point I’m questioning if it is worth sending a 4th time since they can’t seem to fix their own laptop. This was my first time buying Lenovo and the last.

    Can't Wait to Get Rid of this Lenovo Trash :)

    I can't wait to get rid of this laptop. I had very high expectations and needed an upgrade for school. However, this is my first Lenovo and totally disappointed. My camera or speakers work on and off. I'm ready for a meeting and the camera simply stops working. The speakers have to be reseted everytime there is MS Windows 11 upgrade. I was very happy with my old ACER Chromebook that lasted forever. This Lenovo comes with many unwanted surprises that you just wanted to trash it. Also, the screen adapts itself to the large monitor I use and some letters are huge others you can't even read them because they are extremely small. I didn't have any of these issues with my Chromebook which I still have but Google no longer supports it. BTW ACER customer support is excellent but Lenovo won't even pick up the phone.

      Posted .

      Hi, MariG. We are sorry to hear that your IdeaPad 3i has fallen short of your expectations and the issues you've encountered. To try to resolve this, first, we recommend checking for and installing any available updates through the Lenovo Vantage application (the full version can only be installed if your device is not in S-Mode). Applying updates here will supply BIOS, driver, and firmware updates that do not populate in Windows Update Settings, leading to outdated system software, which can cause a myriad of issues. Also, there are several options to contact Lenovo Support under the Support tab in Vantage. We appreciate you sharing your experience so that we may use it to continue to better our products and services for yourself and others. Lenovo
