"…a powerful combination of performance, connectivity, and entertainment." If you are flying to the moon in 1969 that would be absolutely true. This is now however, so that is more marketing speak than reality. This is a modern computer, made with current tech that is designed to compete with Chromebooks and the MS Surface GO and the likes. By design, it is meant to heavily depend on the cloud (specifically OneDrive) and offer high portability to students and others with high text data needs.Most people try to see a computer as a single entity, but really they are always two-hardware/firmware and software. The only thing here that you can change hardware wise is the hard drive. I have yet to pop the back off my brand new machine, but from what I have read online, there is either a standard laptop SSD (probably not) or a newer style NVME drive (I expect). In either case it can be changed out fairly easily if the cloud isn't doing it for you. 128 gb won't go very far if you go beyond mail, web and word processing, but will be more than sufficient for a great number of modest, utility type users.Where most will be limited by this machine is the Windows S configuration. The "S" is for security, and from that aspect, it probably does the job and if that is what you are after (for your budding young adult, for example), it will fill the bill. You can (MUST!) get your needs fulfilled from the MS Store as everything there is vetted for safety and security. Again, if the majority of your work is in Office 365 and MS Edge, you may be just fine here. If you want to break out of that though, S has to go. Simple utilities like KeePass and Notepad++ (fully functional) are not there. There may be compatibles that you will be comfortable with, but the originals are not available in S. Leaving S is very easy (search for it) but of necessity is a one-way move since you could contaminate the architecture without the designed security. I saw no reduced performance when changing to the offered "Home" Windows 10. The change is almost instantaneous and free.I have always turned up my nose at 14 inch laptops, but the narrow bezel, and changing the zoom from the default 150% to 125% has really made things work for me. I still desperately miss the number keypad, but USB versions and large docking stations are easily and economically available should you want to go that route. The touch screen coupled with the large (largest I've used) trackpad is starting to break my marriage to a mouse. My cheap iPad stylus (the kind with the clear disk on the end as well as the rubber ended kind) works just fine here, but if you need pressure sensitivity and buttons to click you'll need the dedicated Lenovo Pen.A quick note about the other reviews I see here. They are riddled with inaccuracies and biases. Do your own research, far beyond what you see here. I usually don't put a lot of faith in pro reviews as they are often part of a sales technique, but I have to say they will serve you better than the "helpful information" you see here.Consider this machine for what it is, and not what you want it to be and I think you'll find all is well here.
