    Nice laptop boots up very quickly runs well light The graphics are OK screens not the best. The only real downfall if you cannot add or upgrade ram or storage. The ram and SSD are well in the motherboard and do not have extra slots for expansion or changing. So you’re stuck with 128 GB of storage. Didn’t seem right their video book and regular slim had that ability not sure why beware when you buy

    I have yet to have any problems with this purchase, those the material feels like plastic I almost certain of its durability and strength compared to previous laptops. It has paired with my phone easily and performs all necessary functions for a school laptop. The only thing I dislike is how the keys are spaced because I personally am used to a bigger range between keys. It easily pairs to Bluetooth devices and the charger works well alongside it, the battery last for quite some time, and it charges very quickly.

    This Lenovo laptop fits my basic requirements perfectly. I plan on continuing to use the Windows 11 Mode S for its security. My primary use is email and word processing (Google Docs), where a full sized keyboard is more convenient than a cell phone. The system was easy to set up. The Windows 11 boot up is very fast compared to my older magnetic hard drive. I was also very happy that the system was not loaded with bloat wear.i have also streamed music and watched YouTube videos with no issues. I’m sure this unit is more capable than what I use it for. I’m extremely pleased with this laptop computer.

    This was a great buy, the price was great and the laptop was perfect for a first time user. I bought it for my boyfriend, who is not very computer savvy. He really likes this laptop because he is able to search around easily and learn how to find things on it. He has learned how to navigate through his computer to find apps, settings & how to sign into the internet. He gets notifications and pop ups offering him help as he is searching. We are very happy with the Lenovo IdeaPad laptop.

    Very solid basic laptops. Premium look and feel, good battery life, solid keyboards, good screen. I've bought a bunch of these for my organization for the staff that uses mainly web-based applications and do not need heavy duty processing power. These fit that need nicely. The price to function ratio is very good at $3XX, and extremely good if it's on sale at under that amount.

    Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Review

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this as laptop good refurbished. I did have to reinstall Windows 11 when first booted and have had no issues after that. This laptop is good if you can pick this up on sale. Unfortunately it's not upgradeable, however if you're able to pick it up on sale its a good deal. Once after you remove all the bloatware and Mcafee. This i3-N305 is a very capable CPU it handles web browsing, Google Suite, and Microsoft 365. The intergraded graphics it can handle very light gaming. Keyboard feels great when typing, very pleasurable experience, Not backlit, but the screen is bright enough for low light settings. The battery life is Average it last up to 3hrs on a full charge web browsing, While working expect up to 1.5hrs of battery life so definitely keep it plugged in. The track pad is okay I'd recommend using a mice. Boots up quick very fast SSD, not upgradable like the ram, but perfect for a Google Suite User. Again this is a very capable laptop, pick it up on sale, and enjoy one of the best budget laptops on the market.

    Overall, this is a decent laptop that handles my work tasks smoothly. Performance has been reliable, and I haven’t run into any major issues. The only thing I’m still trying to fine-tune is the display gamma.. It doesn’t feel quite right out of the box. Colors seem a bit off, and it’s been tricky to calibrate it to a more natural tone. Not a dealbreaker, but something to be aware of if color accuracy is important to you.

    Got this for my dad and he is a lightweight user. Mainly used for watching youtube, reading the news, checking emails, and playing games like solitaire. Sleek design, good amount of ports, and functional. 4 stars because there is no ethernet port on the laptop, but that's pretty standard nowadays.
