      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,

    I ordered this package 3 × 2 times it didn't show app and the third time I had to go to the store and pick it up. And after calling your help desk, they basically told me too bad. Didn't offer a discount conversation, nothing.

      Hey Steven,

      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 various system components.

      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 look forward to hearing from you on the status of this, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us. Lenovo
