IdeaPad 1 14.0" HD Laptop, Intel Pentium Silver N5030, 4GB, 128GB SSD, Windows 10 S, Ice Blue

I needed a laptop for working from home. I spent a lot of time researching which would be best for my needs. I needed to have a laptop that was decent, better than a chromebook and that could meet the requirements for my job. I also could not spend $1000 on a laptop. I ended up choosing this one. I do not regret my purchase. This laptop moves fast, the screen is clear. I did not have any trouble setting it up. It does not glitch or randomly shut down as some reviews were saying. I am taking calls and remoting in to my work computer with this laptop. I also use it for Microsoft Teams. The video is good, but not the best which is ok for me, because I will not be taking any pictures or videos with this device. I did remove S Mode because I could not download a lot of programs that I needed with S mode. i was concerned because I read that it would slow the computer down and once deleted you cannot get it back. After researching more, I found that it actually does not slow anything down so I ended up removing it. Nothing bad has happened since removing S mode. I actually like it a lot better without it. If you are on a budget, I would suggest purchasing this one.

Just got it and getting used to Windows 11. So far I like it. Not having things pop up from the Windows icon in the left corner is going to take a little getting used to. Took a little time to find the power button. Hint there is a picture of a window click on that and the button is on the lower left. The computer is nice and fast. Overall it is a step up for me as this is the first new computer I've gotten in a while. I think it is a keeper and hope it lasts a while. I already heard rumors about Windows 12 coming out. I hope this computer is possible to update.

5 years later and still works so well!

Not a lot of power but does great with day to day tasks.

Let me tell you: This Laptop Is Never Good Option, DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!the gb is 114gb, really didn't expecting that, I bought the 512 gb, but it turns out 114 gb.update: my laptop has a black screen when turning on, and I don't know what to do, can amazon give my money back?update: my laptop is like never gonna turning on this point, why did I even bought this computer?I want my money back, and lenovo sucks.update: my laptop never turns back on, I shouldn't close the lid, because it kept shuting down, and I have to be really lucky when it turns back on.the result is it sucks, it never be great, it sucks, and it never be goodupdate: I tried turns back on many times, but it never wake upupdate: when I use it, it is like really slow like someone's old laptop, possibly just old parts of other computers' and put them up togethertomorrow, I will call customer service to see if I can change my laptop to other laptop. I promise I will never touch another lenovo laptop.I used to be a lenovo customer, now this company lost a loyal customer by its faking storage, and really slow processing and really bad opening.

Bought this mainly cause of the price point and the loaner laptop I got from school malfunctioned on me. I mainly use it for school work mainly online classes and occasionally streaming. I keep it light since it just my school laptop but for basic needs it’s fine. No need in spending all that extra money on a laptop that’s just going to be out of date or slow down within the next couple of years.

This is not a fast laptop and only has 4GB RAM. That being said, it's inexpensive, lightweight, the batter lasts a long time, and it has the Lenovo feel of quality. I use it primarily for connecting to my office computer, web work, and running Microsoft Office. For those who use Align, Jira, and Confluence at work, it does an OK job. There are pauses now and then, but it's very useable.

Can't handle adobe creative cloud but its good for everyday tasks and capcut even though its lethargic and slow at times. Its an alright buy but could upgrade to a gaming laptop if i have the money for it
