Title: This Chrome Book is wonderful for my needs.
Review: I liked this option for the ease of use since I really don’t need a regular laptop at this time in my life. It is perfect for my smaller needs. The price was great vs. a laptop, after my laptop dumped out. It does everything I need it to do‼️. Very happy with my Chrome Book‼️

Title: First chromebook
Review: This is the first lenovo and chromebook that I buy. I used to use windows hp and thought the endless updates were the norm until I was recommended this.At first glance, it looks good. The touchpad is responsive, keys aren't clacking loud, not too heavy. And it was very easy to set up. The screen looks good too.That said, haven't fully used it yet and will update as to how the performance and battery life will go.That said, right out of the box; I don't know if it's touchscreen or not. If it is, then either I haven't enabled it or the screen is not sensitive enough to register a touch.Update:I got the laptop in September third and charged it that evening. From then to now I left it on sleep mode and haven't touched it since. Today I open it up and am surprised that it's still at 90%~ charge. That's bonkers to me, my old one would doe within three hours of sleep mode.Still I'll update on the battery once I get to properly use it.As for the screen, it is not touch screen.

Title: Great Chromebook!
Review: Was not sure what to get in a Chromebook, so I got the Lenovo hoping it would suffice. Blown away when I got it considering the price - very nice screen, not the fastest thing on Earth but plenty fast for my purpose (email, internet, word processing, and Zoom calls). If you told me this thing cost $1,000 I would believe it, but at the price I paid on the Prime Day sale, it's a steal.

Title: Pleasantly Surprised
Review: Bought during Amazon Prime Day for $199. Great deal and I'm very pleased with the easy set-up and overall performance. I love the keyboard, especially the number keyboard. I bought this on the first day of Prime Day and it must have been very popular as on the second day of Prime Day it was listed for $276. If you want something simple to use with not a lot of extra bells and whistles, this is a great buy. I was able to convert my excel and PDF files with ease. I love using Google Chrome (I don't like Microsoft Edge) to access my files and websites. The only negative I can say is that it doesn't have the clearest screen at times, but that doesn't really bother me that much. I have watched some YouTube videos and they have been pretty clear for the most part. For the price, you really can't beat it!!!

Title: Very slow and crash prone
Review: Set it up as soon as it was delivered. Updated software. Could not use an app and browser at the same time without freeze ups an and crashes. Extremely disappointing performance.

Title: Not actually touchscreen!!!
Review: Nothing was wrong but amazon set up the specs to compare other laptops and it said was touchscreen. It is NOT. Setting up was easy though. Too bad

Title: Affordable and Powerful Laptop for Chrome Users
Review: This laptop is perfect for those who use Chrome features and android devices. It is quick, reliable, fast charging, and lightweight. I recommend this to family households for general online tasks such as billing and communications, students with districts/universities that use Chrome and its applications, and any person that travels. I am very happy with my purchase and fully recommend this laptop.
