My New Favorite Thing: The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 R
I needed a new laptop for my sophomore year that could handle schoolwork, streaming, and just hanging out online. My old one was slow and had a tiny screen. After a lot of research, I got the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 with an AMD processor, and I'm honestly obsessed with it.

Malfunctioning Laptop
I am convinced this laptop doesn’t come with a fan inside. It randomly shuts down and needs to be restarted almost everyday. I thought it was just me, but when I went to the community section, I’m not the only one with this problem.

Pretty good for the price
It works very well most of the time. The internet connection is slower than I've had with other computers in the same location, so I suspect the wifi board is not very good.

Computers like a computer
I love the 10 Key on this computer which is one of the reasons I chose it. The Cosmic Blue color is really nice and I enjoy the change from the standard grey, silver, black colors most laptops are. I have not had any issues in performance but I'm using this mainly as a personal productivity computer. I have only played Minecraft on it but I noticed no issues in perfo...

A huge step up.
Consider that I'm comparing my 9 year old Windows 10 laptop, so my bias is that this new one is incredibly fast. Going from a spinning disc drive to solid state memory ... there's no comparison. It's everything the reviews said about it. The speaker is pretty poor. But the screen is better than the reviews I read.

Pretty decent at this price point
The laptop is nice, but is quite heavy and sometimes louder than the previous IdeaPad 5 model that we had.
Overall, speed and responsiveness has been great.

Laptop that won't break the bank
It's been a great budget-friendly laptop. It handles my daily tasks with zero fuss, thanks to that AMD chip, and the build quality feels more solid than the price suggests. The keyboard is actually a huge plus—typing on it is a breeze, and the number pad is handy. Battery life has been decent for light work too. The only real bummer for me was the display; it's a bit la...

Pretty Good (Trackpad placement a little weird)
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 som...
