    Awesome Laptop for the Web

    Full HD display, a CPU that offers plenty of performance, 8GB of DDR5 RAM, plenty of storage for web surfing and for $200. I didn't need storage, given I'm not using it for photos or videos, etc. Nor am I installing apps, so perfect for my needs. Only wish RAM could be upgraded, and there was a Chrome OS version for the same price.

    Picked this laptop up on a BlackFriday sale. Couldn't be happier. Quick setup and able to use dual monitors with a thunderbolt dock. It's nothing fancy but if you need something for surfing the web this is perfect. Viewing angles on the screen aren't the best but tolerable.

    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

    Got this for my daughter in highschool. She loves it. It looks good, compact, but still easy to work on. Having the number pad is a plus. It performs very well even while she has multiple windows open and listing to music.

    I chose this laptop based on a recommendation from a tech website and it's been great. Best Buy really does have the best prices on electronics. I didn't want to overspend on high-end functionality that would go unused and this was a great balance of specs to cost. It's bigger than I was picturing, so the extra screen space is really nice. The display is sharp and it's very responsive. After years of a Chromebook, it's a relief to have something that can do so much. I was a little concerned that 8 MB wouldn't be enough, but it's fine. Unless you will be doing a ton of graphic intensive gaming or you keep 100 apps and tabs open at a time, this is plenty. It's more than enough for video streaming, looking at websites and productivity functions like Word or Excel, etc. Very pleased with this purchase!

    It is a good, budget laptop. It handles light processes well enough. It should've came with more on-board storage. Most of it was gone before I even did anything and it is not enough.

    I Love my Lenovo laptop. It's so easy to work with. It's a higher quality one than I'm used too so I was really worried it would be too much for me. Thank You to the store employees for helping me pick out what I would need. Your Geek Squad couldn't fix mine but told me you had some great options. I appreciate the Grove City Ohio sales team and store associates so much. I'll definitely be back soon to purchase some more items That I need.

    Reliable Everyday Laptop with Minor Drawback

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

    We bought two of these laptops for our household to separate personal use from our work and school Chromebooks, and they’ve been a dependable choice. The screen size works well for productivity and watching videos, and connecting to an external monitor and Bluetooth devices was quick and seamless. The only reason for four stars instead of five is the charger. It’s not USB-based, which feels a bit outdated and less convenient. Aside from that, the laptops perform well and meet our everyday needs without issue.

    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.

    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.
