    The laptop is usable bot really only for basic office use and things like that. Great for a student! But outside of that it runs really slow and does require some patience.

    Bought this in April 2020 for school and working from home. Right when I received the laptop, it was slow. Thought I would give it a chance. Contacted Geek Squad and they tried to help out remotely. Laptop was still running slow. As I began to work from home more consistently, I noticed that anytime I tried to join a video meeting, this laptop would just freeze. One of the worst laptops I have ever owned.

    This was a great purchase, I am self employed, it's very capable of doing everything I need it to, from all my accounting needs and my basic business card and brochure design. Plus having the "10-key" is also a great feature. Being an ex-banker using the top number keys we a hassle for me. The display is clean and crisp. I am enjoying my new computer. 5-stars all the way around.

    We purchased this laptop for our son to use during the pandemic since schools are no longer in session for this school year. It does everything that is needed for his online classes as well as his research from other online sources. It has the speed and capacity needed for a middle and high school student. I will definitely purchase Lenovo products from Best Buy in the future.
