Arm processor causes MANY incompatibility issues!!!
1 out of 5 rating
Eric W . 17 days ago
This has to be the worst laptop I have ever owned. The ARM mobile processor is literally incompatible with almost every piece of hardware and software. I cannot even shut the laptop down where it doesn't drain the battery when turned off and not in use. Was hoping the update to win 11 and the firmware bios update would fix it, but no. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS AT ALL. ESPECIALLY DO NOT GET IF GOING TO USE FOR ANYTHING AUDIO PRODUCTION RELATED.

X13s . 1 month ago
Yes, I'd recommend this product.
A lot of people speculate whether this laptop is worth the money, for me I upgraded my iPad Pro to get this X13s I’ve had it almost a little over two years battery for what it is is fantastic. The biggest downfall that I would say is. I could use one USB-A keep the other two USB-C’s, as a world traveler, and mostly within the continental US this laptop is the perfect size and late enough to take anywhere.

Yes, I'd recommend this product.
I went back to college, and I'm using this system for it's portability. It runs the apps i need, the media player works fine, processing is fast, it allows me to do school from anywhere since it comes with 5g, it runs Microsoft 365, chrome, edge, Firefox etc work good. If you need something more powerful, than you need to do that on desktop but this laptop allows you to set up what you need.

Cheyne . 9 months ago
No standard USB ports, no way to plug in anything without an adapter for USB-C. I've had this laptop for about 6 months and take it with me on the road and I'm just not impressed for the money. I consistently lose service while my phone stays connected. Verizon has no clue and Lenovo just automatically assumes you're doing something wrong. For less than half of the $1500 you'll pay for this computer you can buy better.
Please do not buy!

Lenovopiece of Junk . 9 months ago
If you want to pay high dollar for a horrible laptop this would be the one. I have had my laptop for for months and laptop has completely when out, and will not work. The battery is horrible, and Windows 11 is always updating. Verzion will not help you, in store Reps are horrible and online Tech has no clue as what to do. 1,449.00 for a piece of Junk Laptop. This is what you are going to pay for. Lenovo is a piece of Junk
