Lenovo IdeaPad 1 Laptop, 15.6” FHD Display, Intel Celeron N4500 Processor, 20GB RAM, 1TB SSD, SD Card Reader, Numeric Keypad, HDMI, Wi-Fi 6, Windows 11 Home, 1 Year Office 365, Grey

This little beast boots quickly and has enough horsepower to get the job done. It's not for gamers but it's sleek with good ergonomics and a good video card - plenty good enough for most users. With a small eMMC boot drive (fused to the motherboard), and a 1T SSD, it has enough juice to start fast and lots of storage capacity. I'm a programmer so I scrubbed Windows and installed Xubuntu Linux. Super easy install and the machine is impressive. I'm running two webservers (Perl on Apache and Python Flask on Apache) both accessing a Postgres database and the machine is easily up to the task. F12 on boot gets you to the boot menu and F2 gets you to the BIOS. Straightforward laptop and a joy to use. Five stars!

works great i'm still using it

I really like this little Lenovo laptop. It works very well and I have always had good success with Lenovo products. Has a 1 Tb of memory and 12 gb. Ram. Overall I am quite pleased with it.

This is a good laptop for students especially for the price. When it comes the web surfing the speed is nice and it still functions properly with multiple tabs open. The battery last about 5 hrs fully charged. It has excellent storage space. In order to download apps outside of the Microsoft store you do have to turn off S mode. The screen quality is nice for the price the sound is decent I have watched YouTube videos on here and the sound was pretty good. I haven't experienced any issues and im on week 2 of owning it.

I don’t like negative reviews or rants. I don’t write many reviews but most of the ones I do write are 5 stars. This is the exception. I am not a geek but I’ve built my own desktop, replaced: Motherboards, RAM, Hard Drives, Video cards, etc. etc. Windows 7 on my desktop will no longer accommodate Outlook.com emails so I had to buy a new computer (per Microsoft). I used to have a Lenovo laptop and loved it. When I saw this laptop on Amazon’s Deal of the Day; 20 GB RAM and 1 T of Storage I was excited!!! I didn’t want Windows in “S” mode as I wanted a certain web browser and Adobie PDF. I also wanted a larger Hard Drive. I read and re-read all of the information about this laptop 3 times to make sure that I got what I wanted and wasn’t surprised. Nowhere on the website did it say that this was Windows 11 Home “S”. Just Windows 11 Home. After much research I’ve learned that all Windows 11 Home are “S”. To not have the “S” you have to get Windows PRO. When I opened the box on top was a little piece of paper saying that it was an “S”. You can’t find any information from the laptop until everything is “installed”. The 1 T storage is on “the Cloud”. If the box is opened but the laptop is never taken out of the wrapper Amazon charges you 10% to send it back. When I found out that the 1T storage is the “Cloud” and not hard drive they would charge you 35-50% to send it back. I don’t know if this next is Lenovo’s fault or Windows or both. When you turn it on it takes 5-10 minutes to boot up; that is if it is not downloading an update which it seems to do at least twice a day then it takes 30 minutes to download and 15 minutes to install it. The processor on my desktop is 3.20 GHz and this is 1.1 GHz so this processor is much slower. The 20 GB RAM is Lightning Fast if it is not downloading or installing an update which is GREAT! It's just that a 1.1 GHz processor for this much RAM makes this a very Sluggish machine. This takes 3 times as long to print anything as it is only 1/3 the speed. Do yourself a favor and get a larger processor. The BATTERY says it is LONG LIFE but when it is 100% fully charged it says that it can only run 4 hours & 1 minute. Not long in my book. My final gripe is Outlook email which is probably a Microsoft Office issue. If you haven’t checked your Outlook.com email for several days it doesn't update when you open it, the last email is from the last time that you opened it. You cannot “refresh” the email. To get today’s email you have to restart the laptop and all too often it is updating so the laptop won’t turn off or turn on so you have to wait 30-45 minutes to check your new email. This laptop is no better than my 4 GB RAM Lenovo laptop from 20 years ago. Do yourself a favor and buy your laptop from a Big Box store instead of AMAZON. They are easier to return even if purchased online. The seller has a 30 day return policy, just a 35-50% penalty for the information that they don’t include on the website. You don’t know how much the penalty will be until you’ve returned it and they tell you. I will NEVER buy another Lenovo or any electronics from Amazon!

Excellent machine, but comes pre-loaded with Windows 11, which I've come to hate because of pre-configured privacy issues with this OS. Check out the numerous YouTube videos which show you how to disable them. Lenovo has just made Windows an optional OS rather than standard. Now ships with Linux unless you want to pay extra for Microsoft.

This has been a great tool. I haven't had any issues with this laptop. I love the fact that it is 1T, which is most helpful to use for my Silhouette Cameo designs. I'm able to save and download all my font designs without any hiccups in retrieval. The keyboard is very responsive to my typing. Nice slim, sleek design.

Works really well
