Lenovo ChromeBook S330 User Reviews and Ratings

i just wasn't looking for a chrome book

I was nervous about ordering this Chromebook many months before arrival. It was a Christmas gift for my husband. However, it arrived as scheduled in great condition. We had been looking for an affordable Chromebook of good quality for watching videos, browsing the internet and using google documents. The battery life is awesome and the resolution is great. He's been using it since December and is very happy with it. Would recommend!

My husband is not that PC proficient and he has been complaining about Windows since the last update. I finally got him a Chromebook that makes it easy for him to use Google's apps, such as Gmail, Google Calendar and Google Drive. This is a huge plus since it is easy to set up and he doesn't have to learn anything else to use it. The screen quality is great, and the battery life is pretty impressive. It performs smoothly even when you have multiple tabs open and you're streaming video or playing games. Unfortunately, it isn't for office files because you're limited to Microsoft Office Online, the free cloud version of Office via the Chrome browser. You should also keep in mind that Chromebooks are designed to rely heavily on the Internet, which means that many apps simply won't work if you're not connected to the internet. But if your main concern is surfing the internet, this is a great, less expensive alternative to a tablet.

Good chromebook limited storage 32gb not 64, 720 screen not 1080p. Battery life good.

Works great, easy to work with.

Wife needed a new laptop for work, she decided to try a chromebook and instantly fell in love with it. Does everything and more than she expected.

Lenovo Chromebook 330S: Excellent value for the money, wanted to replace a capable but heavy Lenovo Thinkpad that I was carrying from school to home. I use an ipad daily in classroom teaching, but was limited by compatibility issues with school's Smartboard and other equipment. For creating and editing documents, compatibility issues abounded with the loathsome Word for ios and Google Docs can't come close to the flexibility of creating documents in standard-version Word. I worried that there is little-to-no storage on Chromebooks, but adding a micro SSD card allows for onboard, sleekly integrated storage, which can supplement cloud storage or an external drive if desired. Solid feel to keyboard, bright crisp picture, very fast internet and processing speed. USB-C can charges in both directions, adapters (to USB-A or other port types) allow charging of other devices without their dedicated chargers. This model came with HDMI. I would add a dedicated 'delete' key and touchscreen capability.

This chromebook has a lot of storage, 14 inch was perfect for me, it runs very fast. Very fast shipping. I am very happy with the product .

This is amazing. Highly recommend. The idea for me was to stop using a laptop and move entirely online. I tried to do that with my phone about 5 years ago, but that was just too new. This is also the way to go for aging parents who need email, and online banking, cloud storage photos, etc. So fast and easy to use, with a good screen (although you do need to be at the right angle to see the screen clearly...depending on your situation that can be a good thing for privacy). It is not featherweight, but it is very portable and great to presentations and zooming through the cloud.

Sí estás acostumbrado a usar la paquetería de Microsoft office esto no es para ti. El material se ve corriente porque es su mayoría es plástico. Pero es buena ya llevo 5 meses con ella.

Love this chromebook

I really like. My Levono S330. It is great in every sense.

I've wanted a Chromebook for years, but could never really justify the purchase...until recently. I've been taking some trips out of town, and needed to be available for work, just in case, but I didn't want to risk taking my work laptop with me on the trips. So, I bought this Chromebook. I use Chrome Remote Desktop to control my work laptop, which is sitting at home, and it's been a great experience. With a good WIFI connection, It feels just like I'm working on the remoted machine. The keyboard feels good, and I'm able to type just fine. I thought I'd be missing having function keys, but there's a system setting to treat the top row of icon keys as if they were F1 - F10, and it works great. If I want to use whatever the icon for that key is supposed to do, I just press the search key (just above the shift key) to use those keys. Apart from needing this for work, most of what I use the computer for is web-related stuff; looking things up, email, watching videos, etc. This works great for that. I'm amazed that a machine for just over $200 can do everything I need to do. The screen is a little washed out, color-wise, but after a couple of days, I don't even notice that any more. The battery life is amazing. I've been working on it now for a couple of hours, and it says I've still got 9 hours of battery left.

Perfect for school

This replaces an Asus chromebook which I really liked. I like this one better though. Nice screen, good keyboard, fast enough for my purposes, just works great. I find nothing not to like about it.

Battery life is amazing.

This is my 3rd Chromebook and the best. Wakes almost immediately, battery is great, screen and sound are good (neither make you feel like you are in a movie theater but I don't see/hear any issues I want to change), and it is not slow. Size is right. Highly recommended.

I purchased this chromebook to replace a 2017 13" Mackbook Air that was bricked by spilled beer, so I am sort of judging the Lenovo by Apple hardware and software standards. The Lenovo FHD screen is as good as the Mac, adequately bright indoors. The Lenovo recognizes SD cards, thumb drives, and external HHDs I formatted as exFAT on the Mac, although Chrome does not support encryption of external drives. The keyboard isn't backlit and the touchpad could be more spacious but both are OK otherwise. Chrome OS seems to be as usable as Mac OS for everyday use for web, mail, watching video, etc. I find Chrome a lot better experience than Windows 10. Understatement. I really have not missed the Macbook and saved $900 with the Lenovo over buying the new Air. $900! When my 2009 Mac Mini dies will I get a Chromebox desktop? We shall see.

Practica más me hubiera gustado más puertos USB

So fast to start up, its amazing...turn it on and in a few seconds you are working. Simple to set up and simple to use. Probably not a lot of bells and whistles but for the price a great laptop!

I needed a laptop for college, and this Chromebook has been really useful in class. It's really nice to have most of my textbooks on my laptop, and taking notes is very convenient with this Chromebook.Since none of the courses that I plan on taking require me to download programs that for a Windows 10 computer, this Laptop was perfect for me. Even if you don't plan on using it for work-related things, this laptop is very great for entertainment because of its amazing battery life which is something that most Windows Laptops lack since they require more processing power. But this Lenovo laptop is perfect for youtube, Netflix and many other streaming sites.It's truly an amazing Chromebook for all of your basic needs

It's easy to use, I love it!!! Perfect for my needs!!

Gave it to my nephew and he is thiroughly pleased with it.

Great!

This is a great laptop. Start up time is amazing, 0 seconds! Website browsing, zooming, is in great speed. This is a full HD screen, can't complain. No fan, 0 noise. Minimum heat. Battery life is king, easily over 10 hoursIf anything I want to say, it is the screen view angle. Colour is shifting after 110 degree.

I use this to remote into my main workstation with Google Remote Desktop. If it gets lost or stolen I don't care! That's how cheap it is! But still very usable. Battery life is crazy on these things, don't get a Chromebook with anything bigger than an i3

Great laptop for my 10 year old.

Considering the price, it's really quite a good deal. I wouldn't use it as my primary computer for heavy duty tasks or if I needed to multi-task. But it works well as a secondary laptop. I use it primarily for web browsing. It seems to perform just fine when i watch YouTube or Amazon Prime videos. I can keep multiple tabs open in the browser and it doesn't lag at all. It boots up super fast and the battery life is quite good (roughly 7-10 hours, didn't really time it precisely). The screen quality is not great but it's pretty good considering the cost.The biggest drawback of course is that you're tightly integrated with Google's ecosystem. As a longtime Windows user, I find that to be rather limiting, which is why I still have a Window laptop as my primary computer. There are too many things you can't do on a Chromebook, or can only do in a much more limited fashion. But for many everyday tasks like web-surfing or online shopping it's perfectly capable. It's big enough to not feel like the screen is cramped but also small and light enough to throw into a bag and not feel bulky or heavy.

It's very simple and that's what I love about it.

My middle-schoolers do a lot of work at school on Chromebooks through Google Classroom. I wanted to give them a similar experience at home while keeping the cost reasonable and support overhead very low. The Lenovo Chromebook S330 was just the trick. This thing is fast, the screen is clear and bright and the battery life is awesome with an estimated life of 13 hours. Is it really 13 hours? Who knows, but it last through 6 hours of constant and showed a little over half battery remaining, so it seems reasonable.For perspective, "best" in terms of computer hardware and operating system really comes down to your intended use. You'll get the best value and have the best experience when you buy for that intended use. For what I've described above, this Chromebook is perfect. I could have spent a lot more on a high-performance gaming rig or something with a touchscreen and all the extras, but that's not what was needed.We haven't had it very long, so I'll post back if any of my initial impressions and observations change.
