Pretty Good (Trackpad placement a little weird)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Let me start by saying - this does not compare to the perfect laptop that was my old IdeaPad bought in 2021.
The screen is bigger, there is a number keypad, and bigger memory. It is a pretty great laptop, but I do have one major issue.
The trackpad is off center, slightly to the left. When resting my fingers on the home keys (F & J) the inside of my palm/thumb sometimes triggers the trackpad. Meaning, when I am typing, the cursor will jump around, sometimes text is selected, and it is very frustrating. I am sure this is something I just need to get used to, but if you plan on using this laptop for lots of typing, please know you may need to adjust your hand placement.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Im honestly suprised with how well it runs even with some games my only dislike would be the battery life is shorter than i expected but it does charge fast.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Its been a month so far and it hasnt given me any problems! its pretty good at what i need it for right now as a freshman for computer engineering. i feel like it will probably last throughout college and def handle what i need to process. also installed linux on it! would say maybe dont try mint on it since i couldnt download drivers to have the wifi module working, but worked out the box with pop os.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought my Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 on sale, and it has turned out to be a real bargain for the functionality I received. Its small lightweight, but with features you usually get with larger, heavier machines. Heartily recommend it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Light and slim enough while also being large enough. Fast, and easy set up. This laptop gets hot, and it gets hot fast. This is not one you will cuddling up with on the couch. First laptop I have had to buy a cooling pad for, but it is still an excellent machine.
I would recommend this to a friend!
