Lenovo IdeaPad 110s - 11IBR 11.6" Laptop - White

This is the perfect little introductory PC for the kids. I just needed them to have something basic when the little people come to visit with me. (I don't let anyone touch my machines at all. I take my computers way too seriously.)The computers are absolutely adorable and the ideal size for the little ones to come over to brush up on their skills, as well as complete any serious school projects. It was very helpful to me that Microsoft provides a full one year subscription to Office 365 for free! That saved me even more cash to get the kids up and running.I appreciate the ability to expand the hard drive capacity through the use of the microSD card slot. I was quick to include 32GB cards for each. I will expand this to a larger capacity should they fully use the current availability. I doubt that will be any time soon because the laptops are not meant for gaming, or any other hungry application storage functions.Very pleased with the purchase, the kids are excited as well.

My larger laptop crashed. I have a work laptop that weighs about 20 lbs, and I use that for just about everything. I decided I didn't want to spend an arm and a leg to buy another laptop. All I really use a computer for are browsing and my music files. This looks like it will do the job ok. I asked another reviewer if this would be ok for iTunes, and they were kind enough to say it would. Well I am using an external hard drive to house my music library, that is probably the only way this would work since I also installed Microsoft Office Professional. The 32GB is pretty much tapped out at this point. That is for sure a huge drawback. I ordered a micro SD, and I'm hoping that the integration will add easily to the 32GB. Maybe if I clean up the memory and hard drive I will get a few GBs back. The memory is very bare bones, most cell phones out there have more than 32GB to work with and that's without windows installed. I'm not seeing it as snappy as most people describe, but the speed is enough that it's bearable.

Someone should file a complaint with the FCC on companies infiltrating computers with pre loaded apps that track you on top of the fact they take up all the storage space so you can’t put on your computer what you want for all the unwanted apps . Once I tried to upgrade MS office on the computer it crashed . This was originally purchased to type up papers and I liked the fact it had multiple USB ports, I also gave one as a gift but then realized I was scammed because the company preloaded an excessive amount of apps I neither wanted or used and I couldn’t delete them me while the items I wanted to save on the computer couldn’t be saved because if the memory . 👎👎👎👎

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I liked the design/look of this laptop, BUT

This was a waste of about $100. It currently sits in a cardboard box under my bed. When a new software update came around, the computer told me there was not sufficient space. So I deleted every file possible (all of my Microsoft Office for students apps, Spotify, random small files that were saved, etc.). I took it to the ITS department on my campus to see if they could help. They tried to defrag the drive and that did not help. Every time we refreshed the page that displayed the memory, the amount of available space changed and fluctuated for no apparent reason. We resorted to just continually clicking the refresh button to see how it randomly fluctuated, while we did not download anything.I tried to do a factory reset and the computer told me that there was insufficient space (which makes no sense to me, but I am a biology major and not a computer science major). What's worse, the software was forcing me to update because it said my old OS was no longer supported. So I was left with a $100 piece of plastic and some metal and glass. At this point, I put it in a box where it still lies to this day.

The Ideapad boots quickly, Windows 10 runs smoothly, it's well-constructed, has a great keyboard, and the 11.6" screen gives you all the advantages of being portable while still being a usable size. It has Bluetooth built in, so if you don't want to sacrifice a USB port for a mouse dongle, you can always pick up a USB mouse to get the job done. Battery life probably isn't the 8 hours advertised, but it'll confidently get you through 4 hours of activity every time, maybe 6.The only downside of this product that I can see is that when it arrives, half of it's modest 32GB hard drive is already used up, but that's easily remedied by storing files in the cloud (Skydrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.) or adding a micro SD card with as much memory as you want.In short: this is a great computer and an amazing value for the money.

Great secondary laptop for work or school however I hate all the bloatware Lenovo puts on this tiny thing. It's not the fastest, and wasn't designed to be however with the power limitations of this laptop and the extra stuff they put on to run at start up really boged it down. After about 10min of tinkering with the startup processes and removing alot of unwanted applications it's nice and speedy for what I do with it (ie loading .dwf files -fairly large cad files- and loading web pages with flash). The construction is nice very good for keeping in a work truck or somewhere bumpy due to being a passive cooling device i.e. no moving fans. Wish the mouse track pad was a bit better but for the price you would be hard pressed to find a better laptop!

A good, solid, basic little laptop. Not going to do complex stuff, and it has no DVD drive and only 32 Gb of hard drive, but if you use an external drive or a micro SD card, you're all set. I use one-drive from Microsoft and it has been fine. This comes with 1 year of Microsoft office 365! A good deal. Decent performance and great for basic laptop stuff. I love it for presentations, writing, web surfing, YouTube, recipes, streaming, etc. Can't beat it for $150 or so.
