    When i delivered the computer at first it worked fine. Soon afterwards, it shut down completely. I was thrilled when I returned it to the store i had bought it at and it was exchanged for a new one, same type, which has worked fine since then. Than you. Glad i purchased insurance...

    Fast and very stable laptop. To reinstall Windows without the Lenovo software, I had to slipstream some motherboard drivers into the install USB to make the reinstall work without Lenovo's media. The fan can be a little noisy, but overall, this is an excellent laptop

    Has everything I wanted in my pc at a fraction of the price I was researching with other brands. The fans do make a lot of noise when it gets hot, but it has only done that while playing a new game with overheating issues at max settings. I’ve had zero issues with this so far.

    It's a fast laptop and was a good deal for it's price. Battery life is not great, but no gaming laptop really has a great battery. Compared to my previous laptop though, the battery life is doubled. It has a nice keybind allowing you to put it into a thermal/cooling/battery life mode vs a balanced mode vs an overclock mode, making it super easy to throttle it to just what you need. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase and don't have any regrets yet.

    Its a good computer, I use it for rendering and it does a grrst job with it. If you look at the specs its great for that price, only thing the battery can last some hours but with a gaming laptop its normal.

    I'm not a gamer, but I do a lot of PLC programming, CAD and needed a computer to replace my Dell 7740 which was still working but old. This machine meets all of that, I have not found anything I can't do (Fusion 360) whatever. I did upgrade to Windows Pro from Home. Other than that I enjoy everything this computer has and 1/2 the weight of my Dell 7740 laptop. I wish it had one more spot for a 3rd drive internally as my Dell had but it was not a deal breaker.

    Keyboard colors are out of control

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

    I really haven't been able to do much with this. I have spent 3 weeks trying to get the keyboard background colors to work right and they don't. They have special Lenovo Vantage software that use a program called Spectrum to customize keyboard background colors. Well, it doesn't work. My keyboard defaults to the keys changing colors from right to left in waves. The spectrum software will work 1 time only and then not work if you try to use it again. The colors that you are able to set with Spectrum last until you reboot the computer, then they go back to the original default colors. I called Lenovo and they have not been able to fix it. It has done this since I bought the laptop. Lenovo support reinstalled windows and deleted all of my apps that I spent 3 weeks getting installed. Now I have to start all over from scratch and the keyboard still does not work. I have not been able to do much more than install apps and try to get my keyboard to work right. I tried to ignore the keyboard but flashing colors like strobe light is not what I would call a pleasing working environment. I wish Lenovo could fix their keyboard. I might have to take it back to bestbuy. I have not been able to check it out to see if it can do anything cool yet. So sad and frustrating.
