Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 - Everyday Laptop - Lightweight - Windows 11-15.6" FHD - 8GB Memory - 256GB Storage - AMD Ryzen 3 7320U - Arctic Grey

I was in great need of updating my old laptop, but I was hesitant to buy a new one since I hadn’t set up a new computer in quite a while. I need to be able to run Quicken software and tax software, but I otherwise need just basic email and surfing, etc. This computer turned out to be perfect for my needs at a very reasonable price. It was very easy to set up and everything was up and running in a little over a hour. I was really sorry I dragged my feet about getting a new laptop for such a long time!

I love this laptop. The setup is easy for a tech-challenged user like me. It's extremely lightweight, yet has all the bells and whistles needed for remote work as a Financial Analyst and for online bookeeping. I shopped around for the lowest price, and Amazon beat their competitors by at least $50. I don't do gaming or web design, so the specs are sufficient for me. You won't regret buying this laptop.

Seen other reviews talking about the computer being used and having the s mode on but that’s not a problem and more than 99% of users turn it off to download apps and do other things like Dow load chrome, but other than that I live the computer best purchase ever.

Looks good out of the box. Specifications are ok. Price isn't bad. It worked fine out of the box. The updater Lenovo built into the unit called for a whole list of updates that it said need to be installed. The updates finished loading and called for a restart. When the unit restarted a blue screen came up that said Bitlocker requires a 64 character key to unlock it. Check the Lenovo faqs. It's a known issue. Reached out to support because this is a brand new machine with an issue. Waisted more than an hour with Lenovo support. Then the support person said you need to work with our software support team. They can work this out, but it will cost you $69 for that support. They explained that the new equipment warranty only covers the hardware. The software the included on the machine comes with no warranty through Lenovo unless you spend the $69 for that level of support. Amazon tried to reach out with me to Lenovo and still no help from Lenovo. The security key can be obtained from Microsoft if you put in a bit more time. You can disable the built in Bitlocker security. The blue screen will come back up and require the 64 character key will need to be manually reentered after the next update if you don't disable Bitlocker security. Just wanted to let prospective buy know what awaits them if they buy this unit.

I am very happy with my laptop. I had an older model of this computer and love my Lenovo. This one is not a touch screen, which I was very pleased with (I didn’t want it to be touch screen and was worried since it didn’t say “yes” or “no” it wasn’t a touch screen). It runs well and I have not had any issues with it as of today. I’m not using it for gaming or anything overly complex. Just using it for Cricut crafting and watching videos. It had a nice battery life, I like that the backlit keyboard is optional and I think the slim design is nice. Would recommend to anyone needing a day-to-day laptop for college or work.

Great battery life, it’s lightweight easy to use and easy to set up. Seems durable. Definitely worth the price

Warning - the laptop I received was in S Mode which means you have to shut that off in order to install any app not in the Microsoft Store. It also means you can't use any workarounds to set it up without a Microsoft account. S Mode is nowhere in the listing so be aware!
