    Some issues

    Loved the idea of this tablet/laptop combo, but, one major issue and couple smaller ones have been disappointing. Major issue - This device will randomly shut off, for no reason, in the middle of use. It won't go completely powered down - when pressing the power button to start it up again, it opens up the the last page and usually hasn't lost data. However this is EXTREMELY annoying, if you are in the middle of working on a project, or even worse a Zoom call or a presentation of some sort. It happens whether plugged in or not plugged in, sometimes multiple times a day, sometimes not at all, but consistently the entire time I've had it. I've looked it up and apparently it is a somewhat common issue and difficult to get addressed. I am reaching out to bestbuy/lenovo with the hope of finding a solution. The smaller issues aren't too bad, but sometimes even though the keyboard is physically connected, the connection isn't working, and the only way to get it working is the disconnect and reconnect the keyboard multiple times. The keyboard is lightweight which is nice, but also feels a little flimsy and it makes it hard to type if say the the device is on your lap - you need to have a firm surface like a book underneath you to stabilize it. That's probably to be expected with a 2-in-1 device like this, but it's good to know. I bought this as a writer to have something portable and lightweight and it functions well enough, but given the reliability issues and the difficulty typing on anything uneven I think I would have gone with something like a chromebook in retrospect.

    If you get this at discounted price this is a very good deal. It may be lacking storage and some more processing power, but for the price it is fair.

    I bought this tablet a while back. I LOVED it. I felt like I got it for a steal. Problem was that I was tight with money at that time and probably shouldn't be spending $400-$500 on something I don't necessarily "need". So, like a idiot, I returned it. Now that I can afford it again, I cannot find it anywhere. It sucks! I bet it would be like $250-$300 by now which would be such a steal honestly. Really hope I can find one again soon. Great piece of hardware.

    The right size. The right price. The right OEM, AND Windows 11! May not use the keyboard since the touch is just right. Works nice, and has the Lenovo utilities. Perfect tablet. Found it, got two!

    I have really enjoyed this windows tablet. The processor and ram, while being humble, do what I need them to do. And despite being a compact design, the battery lasts plenty long. Usually long enough to make it through a day away from the wall. One thing I wasn't expecting was the battery powered Bluetooth in the keyboard part. I can connect it to other devices, or even my phone, if I need to in a pinch!
