Greater than one weekI’m writing a book. This is great for that. The keys are nice to type on, they light up for low lit bedrooms, battery lasts decently long, light and fairly small, durable feeling with good cooling. The screen folds back pretty far and has good color. This would work really well for a student as well. Don’t buy this if you want to play games. In fact, don’t buy a laptop at all for games. Build a pc instead. I don’t have a single gripe for the purpose I purchased it for.

> 3 dayPlugged in computer when I first got it and charged it completely. Sadly the battery life is very poor I downloaded 1 game on steam and played it for maybe an hour and got the notification to plug the computer in. Other than that it seems to be good for a starter gaming laptop.

Greater than one weekWorked as expected except from the back-lit keyboard, which after updating bios and trying a bunch of other things I didnt manage to get it to work. Apart from that, Id a great laptop for the money.

> 3 daySince my purchase, the battery life is dismal, a maximum of two hours before recharging. I have to have the power cord with me at all times. This is unacceptable given the choices out there today, including google chrome books and the new Apple M1 chip.

> 3 dayLaptop is great, but the preinstalled Realtek 8822CE wifi card drops signal on occasion (See photo). This laptop (Lenovo Ideapad 3 14ALC6) does not have a whitelist, so I installed an Intel AX210NGW card and I no longer have any issues. Hopefully this helps someone with this model.

> 3 dayIt has a comfortable keyboard, respectable I/O (USB 2 on the right side is questionable but I just use it for a mouse anyways), fantastic chipset, and is pretty easy to DIY upgrade, I upgraded mine from 8 to 20gb of RAM. Runs Linux Mint like a charm although the fingerprint reader doesn’t work with either Mint or Fedora out of the box. It’s great for the price and an excellent choice for a back to school laptop for college, especially if you get it on sale, the AMD APU is a total workhorse for most office tasks and light gaming/media editing.
