I recently purchased this laptop and I must say, it's exceptional. From its lightning-fast performance to its outstanding battery life, it exceeds my expectations in every way.
First and foremost, its speed is impressive. Whether I'm multitasking between several applications or tackling demanding tasks, this laptop handles everything with ease. I've noticed a significant improvement in performance compared to my previous device, making my workflow much smoother and more efficient.
But perhaps what impresses me the most is its battery life. I can go hours without needing to recharge, allowing me to work on the go without constantly worrying about finding an outlet. This level of endurance is truly remarkable and sets this laptop apart from others in its class.
Overall, I couldn't be happier with my purchase. This laptop combines exceptional speed with impressive battery life, making it the perfect companion for both work and leisure. If you're in the market for a reliable and high-performance laptop, look no further.

The laptop works pretty well, fast and efficient. The color quality, the lighting is perfect. The sound is even better. And the battery life is pretty good and last longer than I was expecting. The touch screen is also works well.

This laptop is my life saver! After my employer “tattooed” my desktop so it could only be used for work, I needed something that I could access my home internet and do my own things without my employer peaking over my shoulder digitally. With a very limited budget, I was able to get this Lenovo with Windows 11 and the privacy I wanted. It’s fast! The display rivals my two 49” curved gaming monitors. For total transparency, I keep it plugged in around the clock, so I can’t give a fair assessment on battery life.

For a PC, this Lenovo is a good choice. I bought it when my MacBook Pro gave up on me. The Lenovo is inexpensive, can be used as a tablet, and has some cool features like touch screen and fingerprint login. Some cons of the Lenovo are: heavy weight and bulky to carry, not great graphics, and a very short battery life (I keep it plugged in most times I use it).
Overall, not a bad choice but I recently repurchased a MacBook Air due to the lighter weight and smaller size, and higher quality graphics.

Got this for my son for his first lap top, and I can say it’s the Best bang for your buck for a 2 in 1 , nice screen display good picture with above average brightness, touch screen works pretty good , more than capable to handle a moderate workload .. not compatible with a pen for art but there’s other options for that kind a thing .. screen refreshing is slightly noticeable but not bad ..got the windows 11 home and the fingerprint security,.. overall it’s a solid buy !!

This is a great option for an everyday laptop. If you need to use a microphone often for web meetings, this is not for you since a Bluetooth device is needed for web meetings. It does have great graphics for videos and causal gaming. Love the fact that the built-in camera can be turned off.

For the first few months it was running pretty well. However, later on it slowed down and tabs constantly crashing and computer kept on restarting. I was looking for an affordable laptop that’s convenient for note taking and college use. The battery doesn’t last even for 2 hours. I have to carry the charger around with me. For the price, it could’ve been better.

This is my second Lenovo 2 in 1, the other being a Yoga 9i customized laptop. I also have two Lenovo AIO desktops, and the duet tablet which I bought as soon as it came out. I'm a Lenovo girl. This particular laptop is the perfect size for me. I love a bigger laptop. I love a number pad I love a good solid mouse pad that is not too sensitive and has space on either side for the hands that doesn't end up being hepatic touch and moving everything around when you don't intend that. I love - & will only buy - a lighted keyboard this lighted keyboard is bright enough I've seen contrary reviews it comes on when you begin to type if you toggle it on first it will dim and rebrighten and you can up the level or dim the level a little bit. The keyboard is well designed with the numeric pad it certainly what one who uses this type of keyboard would be used to and it's easy to transition from this to of standard QWERTY board with no numeric pad. My for some reason display has a battery output showing in the top right top corner and the minute I turn it on and unplug it it's 100 and within 1 minute it's 98 and it shows me about an hour and 40 minutes of time it makes no sense I thought I got a bad battery turns out I'm actually getting nine 10 hours of battery use in a full day of using both video and audio with other applications. I wish this was an EVO but it is Intel the processor is fast enough for general use I can have a number of programs running and nothing seems to bog down or lag. I would say immediately download and install your McAfee or whatever antiviral software you're going to be using and also I recommend lenovo's accidental plan and their care plan for the life of your computer. I love that a pen can be used I wish it had a garage for the pen I have not found it to work with my Lenovo pen, so I am still trying to figure that out. And one sweet spot I haven't seen anybody mention is that this computer has no w land not just Bluetooth but it has data built in. That's a big big benefit for this price point of a computer. I find myself using my little five eye more than my yoga just because I love the size I love the feel it's my go-to laptop right now and my yoga is going to be just carefully used for the business workings I need it for and this is going to be my everything else laptop. If you're looking for a great laptop at a really good price point you can't go wrong with this. The only downside is the 8 gig soldered and therefore not upgradable ram 16 would have been just right for this machine and 32 would be optimal. The big benefit is that it does have an SD slot lot of computer don't this has several USB has USB c it has audio Mic Jack which you're not finding in a lot of computers these days so it has a lot of the good things that are being eliminated that we have been used to having in our machines. Charging is very fast see charger awfully quick no complaints and like I said the battery does last a good deal of time you're going to get your days worth out of it and then you can charge it up lickity split. In my mind Lenovo makes the best two in ones. I think Lenovo is trying to give us everything that they can in this machine and keep the price low and still keep it sleek and beautiful. With the lighted keyboard the number pad the touch screen the pen capacity the WLAN several USB ports the seaport the SD slot the headphone mic Jack I don't see how you can go wrong. I gave it four stars only because I think 16 gigs of RAM for machine like this is necessary and I think that it should at least be upgradable if they're going to start it at 8g. And I wish it were Evo. Other than that it's a five-star machine especially for the price. So if you're on the fence and you're really looking for something grab it.

I absolutely love my laptop it has so many things I have yet to discover. It’s turns on so quickly and the finger print reader is just what i wanted. Great graphics. Touchscreen. Beautiful designed. Only downfall is no backlit keyboard. Other than that it’s amazing!
