This was a basic and cheap laptop that i only reviewed so other people can get an idea of what this laptop provides compared to other laptops. As far as computer brands go, this is one of the cheaper brands for a reason. i recently purchased this laptop from my local microcenter, but did not purchase the warranty (which i now which i now wish i had). before this i had an hp which was a good solid laptop that lasted about 4 years and only died because of a hardware issue which was my fault. i bought an asus tablet for about 200 to keep on hand and use for travel but i needed something reliable for schoolwork, so i purchased this lenovo about a year later (this past summer). i bought this one because it was in my budget and had decent specs, but i ignored the lightness and flimsiness (having never owned a lenovo before). after losing my grip on my computer, a few weeks ago, it slid less than a foot from my hand to the floor (being on the edge of my bed) and landed on the power cord still plugged into the computer. i thought little of it since i heard no sound when it landed, but it pushed the usb port in at an angle. it had trouble starting after that, but after a little wiggling it came back on (though it is still jammed). I have had my other laptops fall from the same or greater distance and only suffer minor scratches, but never break so easily. overall i would say this is a decent computer for desk work. the specs are decent and i haven't had any program issues; however, this is a pretty light and flimsy laptop that can't really take any accidental spills. i won't ever purchase this brand again, but i would advise anyone who would to invest in the extended warranty.
