    One month in and still going strong. I like the fast start up. When watching a lot of YouTube videos the cache can fill up and I have to clear it but otherwise haven't noticed the small memory capacity. I got it for $109 on Black Friday

    I bought this for my 83 year old mother who had an older laptop for basic uses. This is so much easier for her to understand. It isn't loaded up with lots of unused software. The keyboard has a nice feel to it, the battery life is very good, it is much quieter (no fan running), and it is very light for her to carry. It also boots up immediately. She (and I) are extremely pleased with this purchased. And Best Buy's price couldn't be beat!

    Lenovo IdeaPad 3i Chromebook 15.6" FHD

    I needed to have the Chromebook for cable connection to a HP Deskjet printer because so many headaches trying to use the printer with WiFi. Its own HP print app couldn't "find" the printer. The little Chromebook was on sale for 119, had the ports needed, and it came quickly from a nearby store. It found the printer with cable connection with no problem and could both scan and print with it using Chrome and Mopria print app. However, the margins were way off on print jobs with no apparent fix, and the printer scanner is the type that the document has to be rolled through. The pages kept crumpling. So, cable connected a Canon PIXMA ts3722 printer and YES, Big Bertha worked. Flatbed scanner, quality text only print job even on draft. The little Lenovo paid for itself right there. Forget the WiFi headaches, give me cable connect every time. I attached a USB hub to the Lenovo to expand its ports. It has one C port and I keep the power cord in that, so it required a hub with USB A connector. The Lenovo screen quality isn't the greatest, but it does what I need it to do. I popped a micro SD card in the slot to unload the files for printing. One funny thing, the file app shows the Lenovo as having a card on board already for memory, and I am wondering if there's one inside. The Chromebook has 4GB Memory with 64GB eMMC Storage. I don't use it for gaming or high demand anything, so that is fine with me. It's fairly small and lightweight. Generally I like to connect a Bluetooth keyboard so I can have it on my lap, but so far haven't needed it. I activated the voice to text feature and can speak to create text files. Generally I create text docs on my cellphones with Google Docs, save them to Drive, and don't need a full keyboard anymore. The Lenovo accepts Google Play store apps, and the Android / Chrome interface is easier for me now than Windows. I've had a Lenovo Chromebook before but gave it to someone who needed it. Glad I found this one on sale. Thanks to Best Buy and OnTrac for fast delivery.

    This is a light weight and versatile Chromebook. It is fast enough to do the things I want to do: emailing, watching videos, surfing the web. I also like the separate numeric keypad.

    I bought this for my husband for Christmas and he loves it. He is used to using an iPad for social media, news, and browsing and then his computer for more work related activities. I didn’t know a lot about the brand but the reviews were great and the price was even better! He said it was easy to use and so far no issues with battery, audio, video, internet, or programs. I would recommend this to anyone looking for something more than an iPad or Chromebook but who doesn’t want to invest a lot of money into a name brand laptop.

    I usually use my iPad for a lot of my school work and creative endeavors but I needed a heftier one for my capstone project. This got me through my last semester of college just beautifully. It holds a charge, is easy to navigate, and was a great choice for the price.

    I got this laptop for school. The screen is big and wide so I am able to see a lot. I like how the webcam comes with built in privacy option, 10 key keypad on the side. Fast enough for me. My schoolwork is primarily online. Takes usb-c for charging. Has SD card slot and aux port.

    Haven’t used Chromebook as not totally setup. Admittedly the device has far more possibilities than my first Chromebook. As with most devices, appliances absolutely no information as to quick setup or any info. Fairly frustrated after initial attempts. Granted that’s my problem. I do like the size and have had excellent results from my previous Lenovo laptop. I will give this device more attention at some point.

    When I first got it the screen was amazing and the laptop it self, didn’t have any problems with it. The other reason I returned it was because I didn’t realize I couldn’t play sims on the laptop. But if looking for a simple laptop just for work i highly recommend this laptop it fast paced and amazing.
