So what are the cons? It's not thin, nor light. The camera is hot garbage to me, but the wife uses it for Zoom and hasn't complained yet, so there's that. The screen is ... meh. I mean, our phones have better screens, and I'll bet a $150 phone might as well. At first I was concerned about the 4GB of ram, but honestly, it hasn't been a problem YET. I'm sure, in the future we'll have to revisit this. I would like an ethernet jack, but it's hard to tell because they only use them in the house and we have good wi-fi. If we go on vacation, it might be a different story. Also, 128GB of storage is nothing these days. You will run out fast if you have a lot of media. But this problem isn't exclusive to this particular model, as the majority of laptops are in the same boat. So add the cost of external storage (SD card, external drive, cloud) to the overall price. Finally, the battery life is not good. You'll have to pay more to start getting decent longevity.

At $150 + 4GB added(?), I guess this is the laptop to get this year.
For Windows OS this is a brick and pretty much useless.
this thing makes chromebooks look good.
granted, im sure a chromebook would run chrome alot better than this ideapad.

The description is saying 2242 for the M.2 slot. I thought 2242 is obsoleting, right now, most of the drives out there are 2280 form factor.
However, the description says 2.5" bay is available. Then it should work for your upgrade.

I gotta laugh at some people's expectations for a $150 sale laptop. I bought a $150 Acer Spin 1 with a Pentium Silver and 4GB RAM and I am quite impressed by its performance. I used to be that person who always thought only about i3 or better but now I'm open to others as I had good experiences with them. This Lenovo has a Pentium Gold too.
As for people complaining about a $150 sale laptop screen, the company has to make cutbacks. When I first used my Acer, I was disappointed in its screen because I compared it to my monitor and my tablets. I eventuality got over the screen pretty quickly. If you look straight on, it looks fine. It struggles when you look at angles. Most of us are looking straight on. Would I buy a $150 for my main laptop? No but as a secondary laptop or for a kid/older person who uses it for basic tasks? Sure.
