The long-lasting battery, satisfactory speed, reasonable price, and lightweight design are also well-received.

    EXACTLY what I wanted, at a nice ($150 off) sale price. Good clear screen, nice keyboard, touch pad is good but I got a BT mouse anyway. I am mainly a Windows user, but Chrome is not hard to figure out. Light and compact, way better than dragging a laptop around. I put all my music and photos on a 256GB microSD with room to spare. Pairs with my Bluetooth spkr for volume when needed.

    I purchased this for my ten-year-old granddaughter, as she is home schooled and needed a device with stronger parental controls and less malware risk than Windows. This fits the bill perfectly. All her online study materials work well on the Chromebook, and it's actually the preferred platform. Plus her parents (for whom I'm "in-house Grandpa tech support) can now be confident that she is protected from the evils of the Internet. As an IT professional, I researched the options and find the Kompanio 520 processor is exceptionally fast for the money, and Chrome works snappily in only 4GB or memory -- Much faster than Windoze! Plus we are in total control of privacy, without Microsoft's nosy intrusion into our personal lives and the annoying and dangerous AI Slop being forced upon us.

    Picked up this computer during a sale & I'm so happy I did. I needed a computer for regular use & this did the trick. The screen has amazing quality & the sound is amazing. I've noticed with a lot of other laptops that the external sound wasn't always the best. I do not have that issue with this laptop at all. I've been using it for a few weeks now & absolutely love it. The battery power was so suprising. It lasts for quite a long time. I previously had a Macbook & the battery life of this laptop exceeds that one by a mile. It has been a great investment. I also love the blue color of the laptop. Highly recommend!

    I absolutely love this computer! I needed something quick and efficient and this one is just that! It is super light and durable. Also, I didn’t realize it was touch screen, which is definitely a bonus! This would be a great computer for someone in school or just needs a computer for the basics.

    My first Chromebook experience

    I wanted to checkout Chromebooks as a MS alternative after getting burned when I was unable to upgrade several Win10 laptops. This device looked like a good way to get started. I've been pleasantly pleased by what I've found. The only downside has been that the processor is pretty easy to bog down, usually by opening a lot of busy web pages simultaneously. That aside, memory and storage are fine (especially with a NAS available at home) the display, keyboard, and touch pad are fine (but I did add a cheap Logitech Bluetooth mouse). Battery life is good so far. My biggest revelation so far is that while a Chromebook looks like a Windows laptop, it's really an Android tablet with a keyboard. So I'm setting this device up much like my Android tablet albeit with a bigger screen and a keyboard . For most computer tasks, this entry level device is just perfect. And at $170, this device is a steal.

    I needed to replace my current Chromebook as it was past it's AUE date. Given my use for a Chromebook, I was looking for an inexpensive but reliable unit, and so far I've been quite pleased with this Lenovo Slim 3. Amazing battery life, 1080p touchscreen, decent keypad and touch pad - it fit my needs perfectly. It does come with a new but entry level processor, but as long as you don't keep a large number of windows and tabs open (it'll lag a bit), you'll be good to go - especially if you pick one up at it's frequent sale price.

    Great quality product, excellent order process and shipping. All is well. Top died and I needed something quickly. I was able to order this one get it the next day and was back in business with a laptop for my trip. The reason I ordered this one is it’s light easy to pack and I was able to do a little bit of work. I needed to do while I was on my trip. I can always count on Best Buy. The Chromebook is a no frill computer, but it does the job and I appreciate that

    very lightweight, easy to use, touchscreen is not as sensitive so you have to press what you want more than once most times, the color is exactly like the picture, don’t like that you need a 6 digit PIN number to login in, does show your fingerprints even at the slightest touch so you have to clean frequently, bought it for school and it’s been great use.
