    Battery out of box is extremely poor Maybe 2 hours using it as homework. Most likely reason for store to get rid of them Pretty sad. Speaker and camera just barely loud enough for zoom

    Bought it December 25, 2023 and by May 2024 it started giving me problems. Long story short had to send it to get fixed and a month later it stopped working again.

    Not even 1 day before it would not load properly- it took 2.5 hours of re-starting until I was able to reset it to erase my personal data. Heading back to Best Buy this morning to get rid of the thing.

      Hello, Kariman. We are sorry to hear that you ran into an issue with your IdeaPad. To help remedy this and for clarification, this model IdeaPad comes with Windows 11 Home in S-Mode. Windows 11 in S-Mode – it is a more secure, lighter version of the Windows 11 Operating System that only allows the downloading of applications from the Microsoft Store. If you try to launch or install an executable or .exe file, the system prevents it. If you still have your IdeaPad and you desire to switch to Windows 11 Home to download necessary software, here is a link to a Microsoft webpage that shares how to do so: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-10-and-windows-11-in-s-mode-faq-851057d6-1ee9-b9e5-c30b-93baebeebc85 Lenovo
