||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not a great operating system. Works more like a tablet
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNice Value
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The device itself is fine, it's just the interface that take a while to get used to.
I would recommend this to a friendBasic
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not bad but just a baire minimum chrome book with the most basic features
No, I would not recommend this to a friendToy, not for adults
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s ok. I’ve had to restart probably 3 or 4 times when I use it for about 3 or 4 hours. Loses connection and kicks me out, real pain when on virtual classes. I would return but the Black Friday sales are off and can’t get another one for 149. Would not buy again. Should have went with the Samsung or HP. This is a toy not a tool
No, I would not recommend this to a friendDefective after 1 month- Exchange also defective
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a Christmas gift for my 13 year old niece. After one month of light use (Probably just Roblox TBH) the screen went black and it never came back on, no lights, no anything. Best Buy gave me the run around about a return, ended up letting me exchange it. **BUT** they were unable to exchange because the device they were going to ship to me was also defective before they even shipped it so they cancelled the exchange and claim to be issuing a refund when they receive the original one back. This thing is a piece of junk. Save your money and buy something better.

No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot Enough Memory and Processing
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The regular price on this is $319 and I paid $149, so it was inexpensive. I wanted a device solely for my genealogy research documentation to use instead of my MacBook. I don't have a grasp of what the memory and processor are capable of. I have one google spreadsheet with 12,684 cells and this computer can't process it;(

Run away from Lenovo devices
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Never buy Lenovo Chromebook ever. This is my second Chromebook that died in as many years. The first one died exactly a month after warranty expired. This second one is already giving speaker and audio problems within 6 weeks. Lenovo support and customer care is a joke and the worst possible team. Not at all easy reach them or get a straight answer. Got a techy friend to help me fix it. He helped me fix the issue in an hour for which Lenovo wanted me to wipe clean the Chromebook, share my Google password with them and ship it to them for 15+ days. Poorly made products that don't last at all. Save your money and sanity by not buying a Lenovo Chromebook
No, I would not recommend this to a friendMy first chrome browser
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Touch pad is too sensative but other than that it is working good.
I would recommend this to a friendIssues out of the box
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Myriad connectivity problems and a mishmash of minor technical issues all equate to being frustrated with the machine despite the savings. Don't be afraid to buy a little higher end and save yourself some headaches.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These computers were such a waste of money. not even 30 days later It says I'm passed my returnable time. Both of my sons are constantly having to restart their computers because it just stops work, stops being connected to internet. restarting always does the trick, but we do homeschool and it the biggest pain in the but when we have to restart between and during every class!!

Buyer Beware!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this device for my daughter to use for school. She used the device for approximately 3 months before it went black and stopped working! We were well within the manufactor's warranty and they DENIED to fix it and shared that it wasnt covered under the "limited warranty" and told me it would cost 150$ to repair it. It will not turn on. Buyer beware!

Posted .Hi A123,
Thank you for sharing your feedback and concerns with us. We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with the operating system and its requirements, along with the design. We wish to share that Chromebook devices do require a Google account for setup, not too dissimilar to (if you're familiar with Windows systems) Windows 11 devices requiring a Microsoft account to setup the system.
We appreciate your comment regarding the exterior finish of the device, as we will investigate this point to make the necessary design improvements.
Please feel free to reach out to us via the Q&A section of the product page to share any further comments or questions, as your satisfaction is important to us.
Best regards,
Lenovo
DO NOT PURCHASE CHROMEBOOK GET WINDOWS
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worst tech ever! I rather use my android tablet, it does way more then this Chromebook. I am totally disappointed with this brand as well. I keep having to power wash the thing, the function keep lagging and it feels like it is being controlled by another device. I enter the correct password to the wifi and it is telling me it is incorrect, as well as my google account password. This device is a hot mess! Can I get my money back?

Posted .Hey LindsayC, we're sorry to hear that you ran into this issue with your Chromebook. To try to resolve this, try doing a hardware reset (visit the following link to learn how to do so: https://support.google.com/chromebook/answer/3227606?hl=en&sjid=11168473644130281663-NA), which reboots the embedded controller that manages your touchpad. If this doesn't resolve your issue, you may need to factory reset your Chromebook, which you can learn more about towards the bottom of the webpage tied to the previously embedded link. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us.
