Customer Ratings & Reviews

Just opened the box this morning. I am a 70 year old retiree and just wanted a nice computer to replace my last Lenovo which did great for five years and was broken through no fault of its own (dropped on floor). Set up was excellent so far. I missed having a printed 'quick start' page in the box, but the computer itself did a lot of handholding. Much improved from five years ago, thanks to Microsoft and Lenovo. One caveat - again, I'm old and I like using a mouse. This is a very slim computer and didn't have the old, bigger USB ports, which I did not realize. My Best Buy associate found me a great workaround and even tested it on the same model in the store. Speed and screen quality are definitely a step up. I'm sure I'll be learning more about all the new features as we go along. Glad I made this purchase.

A fantastic laptop. It does everything extremely well and is super-fast. I love it!

Great laptop! Quick and perfect for everything I need it for ajd the OLED is beautiful!

It’s a great laptop if you wanna use it for the most basic tasks like office 365 apps, web browsing and email but anything more than that it may not be up to your expectations. My biggest gripe was no support for dual displays at QHD resolution. I have two gaming monitors which I have only for high resolution and refresh rate. This laptop does not support two displays at high resolution and high refresh rate. It will however support ONE monitor at 120hz max if the monitor supports it. 60hz monitor support is fine but high refresh rates will be a challenge on this or any other snapdragon laptops. Boot times are certainly better but Windows on ARM still have a long way to go. Up until then, I’ll keep using my M3 MacBook Pro.

Lightweight and Heavy lifting technology. I love how powerful it is despite its size. Very easy to carry around campus. Better than my Mac was.

Got this for my son for college.its not his first computer. He loves it. Great speed, the keyboard is just wide enough. Screen has excellent clarity. Fits in his backpack. Quiet it enough to take notes in class.

Great value, but latest Windows features seem to eat up a lot of memory, and maybe that's why they require 16GB of memory for Copilot+ laptops. When the laptop starts up, it's already using up almost 40% of the RAM. Once it goes over 75%, you will start to notice a lot of disk usage due to disk swap (when an OS starts using hard drive as extra RAM), which hurts performance and battery life greatly. 16GB is the new 8GB, so beware that you will only be able to do light multi tasking on this device, especially if you are using non-ARM software, which uses more RAM for emulation. But if you are using ARM native software or managing your tabs and programs judiciously, it can be blazing fast - just watch out for disk swap!

Excellent performance. Sleek looks. Battery life is super long lasting.

I love this computer, it was lightweight, beautiful color, and the pixels on it was amazing, and it has face id!

Excellent laptop to use. Incredible speed, screen quality is perfect, battery life is the best I have ever experienced in a laptop. Thin and light...great laptop.

Lightweight, quick and easy to use, great for on the go college student

Good working laptop for my consulting business for me and for my contractors.

The laptop is a beast, beautiful screen while being a powerhouse with extremely long battery life even on full brightness. A perfect laptop for work or school

This laptop runs great for the most part. Movies and tv shows look gorgeous on the screen. Only small issue is that once in a while the entire laptop would freeze and crash. Then I have to reboot it. This was frustrating as at one point it happened within the same day of me using it. This has happened 3 times within the month of me using yet, but hasnt happened in a week so hopefully it stays that way and they came out with a software update. To be clear I do use this for school work for college and low level gaming. Like Minecraft, which runs great and looks beautiful on this laptop. Overall, I would recommend the laptop, even with the crashing issue as I assume its a bug and will get patched or already has. Battery life is great and will pretty much run the whole day if youre not gaming. I probably charge it every other day.

Review from a sys admin: Pros: 1. It's lightweight 2. Stylish unlike the vivobook 3. Decent webcam although some of the features are still clearly in the works 4. There's support for majority of the apps thanks for prism 5. OLED display and touch screen 6. Goes toe-to-toe with the Macbook Air M3 and Macbook Pro M3 pro chip. Cons: 1. The texture on the keyboard is picks up the natural oils your fingers produce so I end up cleaning my keyboard after every use 2. Weird issue where if I left the laptop charging and I turned the laptop back on it wouldn't recognize the charger unless I unplugged it and plugged it back in 3. Trackpad is nowhere as good as Microsoft surface and Macbook air (go figure) 4. Still loses in single core performance to AMD, Intel and M3 if you care about those metrics. Notes: This is the bottom of the line in terms of SKU's so it's the lowest tier of Snapdragon Elite X processors (X1E-78-100). Idk why they don't list these things cause its a deal breaker for some folks. Other displays are offering 120hz with OLED while Lenovo is offering 90hz although it's not that noticeable of a jump. I'm knit picking here. I could hear the fans to be loud even streaming 4K content and running da vinci side by side. It was luke warm but still could touch easily touch the F1-F12 row keys. Couldn't pay me to do that with modern windows ultrabooks/ 2 in 1's. This is great for folks who are doing everyday web browsing, Netflix, word documents, power points. This is not good for engineers, product, web teams deploying da vinci, etc. Maybe in a few months it might be closer towards Apple after a few software tweaks. But for the price it's bang for buck. I'll personally be deploying the Surface Pro Laptop and Samsung Edge 4's to my end users because of build quality and the multithread freq.

This laptop has an incredible picture and screen. It was everything I hoped it to be. Switched from a long time Dell laptops owner because the batteries didn't seem to last for me and I wanted AI with Co-pilot and computer for work purposes. Buy it and you won't be disappointed.

Fast and quick, didn't work for my school programs because of the new software but if it did I wouldve kept this instead of getting the yoga slim 9i. I like the slightly bigger screen on the yoga slim 7x and how fast it was.

It’s a great laptop. Good battery life and screen is really bright and vibrant.Not heavy, which makes it easy to access. Love it

I love this little laptop. It’s been about 20 years since I have needed my own computer since I have always had them through work. Well now I am independent consultant so I was in the market. I chose Best Buy because of their financing plans. So I looked at the laptops. Tapped in the keyboards. Touches the screens. Felt the weight. And finally this is the one I chose. It’s a little smaller and lighter which is perfect for me for traveling. At home I hook up to external monitors and keyboards so it really is just an extended monitor for me. The features are great. And for what I need this for (documentation, spreadsheets, presentations) it runs perfectly.

I initially bought the Yoga Slim 7x to get back into a WinPC with battery life similar to the MacBook Air. Long battery life, so far, is a definite plus. I have not worked the laptop down to zero battery yet, but I've been able to get six-plus hours without the battery gauge going south of 60 percent. Graphics have been solid so far, but I have not really tried any games thus far. I did not buy this laptop for gaming...but having that ability would have been nice. My only disappointment so far: incompatibility with my VPN client (NordVPN). Apparently, NordVPN, and reportedly other VPN clients as well, do not play nicely, and will not run emulated on Snapdragon X Elite CPUs. (According to online reports, NordVPN is working on an ARM64 client for their VPN software.) Overall, I'm very pleased. Great price for a powerful laptop with amazing battery life--and the OLED 3k monitor is anything but bad as well!
