No issues. Works great. Great price. Perfect for what I need

Initial Review June 1, 2023You usually get what you pay for. For the price this is a pretty decent laptop.We have five computers in our house. One of them failed so we needed to replace it. But with so much computing power already in the family we didn't need to spend a lot on a new laptop that will be used only for school projects. No gaming or heavy graphics. This seemed to be a reasonably equipped Lenovo branded laptop for about $350. We didn't expect blazing performance, and don't need it. Given these conditions this turned out to be a pretty decent laptop.The only time I've felt the computer was slow was when opening an app. Instead of the blistering speed of my desktop this laptop takes about 3-5X longer to open an app. Pulling up an app on my desktop might take 2 seconds while this laptop takes more like 8 seconds. Once the app or web page is open I don't notice anything that seems to be slow. Most school tasks involve typing, drag and drop, perhaps photo editing. If you need to edit video you may want to buy a more powerful laptop. Not only is this a bit slow for editing but it doesn't have a powerful GPU.They didn't spend much design time on keeping the laptop light weight. It's a bit on the heavy side but manageable.- 12GB of RAM is quite generous.- Sound through the built in speakers is surprisingly good.- 256GB of storage is enough for school work, more can be added using the SD card slot. Unfortunately the SD card slot isn't deep so 1/2 of the SD card sticks out.- The screen is not a touchscreen.- The screen is clear and sharp with good colors.- The screen is bright but may not work well outdoors with bright sunlight.- The keyboard is okay to type on but they decided to cram a number keypad beside the keyboard so the key spacing is a little tight. Many people appreciate having a number keypad but I never use one.- Having volume up/down and a brightness up/down keys are very handy.- The keyboard is not backlit.- Battery life is acceptble. A full charge lasted me about 4 hours while I used it to set up windows and other apps. I was on the computer continuously for all of those 4 hours.- The SD card reader is a bonus. I would not have expected that feature from a low cost computer.- It has a USB-C port which is great, but that port won't charge the laptop battery. That would have been a bonus feature but I think they left it out to keep the cost low. Charging has to be done through the AC power port.- I did use a bluetooth headset with the computer which worked fine.I recommend this laptop

I like this laptop so far, seems to work ok, not the fastest, but not super slow either. I have updated everything and am using Windows Defender AV. I don't think putting McAfee on this would be a good idea. I'm hoping it can handle Roblox and Minecraft without issue. So far, it looks to work just fine for that.One big surprise: I bought this thinking it was new. Nowhere does it say refurbished. But, the warranty info is elusive and it's a third party seller. When I got the PC setup and checked the Lenovo Advantage website, it said I was out of warranty and could extend it for a price. So, is it used? Grey market? Who knows. Glad I bought the Asurion extra insurance for it since there is no manufacturer warranty.Good luck out there.

Purchased this unit for my church to update our computers. I should have purchased two of these as the price was around $188. The prices has gone up to $280 roughly now. I use the computer for church bookkeeping and money management including an occasional Excel spreadsheet. I have had zero issues with speed and calculating spreadsheets. No delays. No spinning buffering. The screen is beautiful and crisp for bookkeeping purposes. The computer comes standard with a numeric keypad built in. Very handy for accounting of course. My personal Lenovo Carbon doesn't have this and you'll miss the numeric keypad if you have worked with them in the past. Seems like plenty of memory and storage for my needs. Computer boots very quickly due to the SSD and other solid state memory. I'm hoping the price will come back down. $188 was a super bargain. Amazon?

Performs well for school work and even good for light gaming.

Laptop did NOT have the 16gb RAM as advertised AND motherboard is dead after purchasing 6 months ago. ZERO REFUND and seller states refunds are only valid during first 30 days….how about sending the hardware that was supposed to come with it!!!!!! BALONEY EXCUSE NOT TO REFUND. ILL SEND THE DARN THING BACK, seller can have it!!! DEFINITELY AVOID THIS SELLER-UNREAL

Que tiene que ser para lugares con Internet, por ejemplo,Yo la llevo para otro país donde el Internet no es como aquí, si de casualidad le ago una cuenta, para poder utilizarla ceria un problema.

I liked how easy it was to set up. I just hooked up my phone and Google email. It brought everything over to the computer. Tablet, phone, computer all work together and in tandem!
