Troubleshooting

Laptop does not power on

Ensure the AC adapter is securely connected to both the laptop and a working power outlet. Try a different outlet. If the issue persists, contact support.

Wi-Fi connection is unstable or slow

Restart your router and the laptop. Ensure you are within range of the Wi-Fi signal. Check for Wi-Fi driver updates in Windows Update or Lenovo Vantage. Confirm your router supports Wi-Fi 7 for optimal performance.

Screen is dim or has poor color reproduction

Adjust the screen brightness settings in Windows. Check the display calibration settings. Ensure the display drivers are up to date. For persistent issues, consider the display specifications (400 nits, 45% NTSC) which may limit peak brightness and color vibrancy compared to higher-end displays.

Performance is sluggish during multitasking

Close unnecessary applications and browser tabs. Check Task Manager for resource-hungry processes. Ensure Windows and all applications are updated. Verify that no background processes are consuming excessive CPU or RAM.

USB-C port not recognizing a connected device

Try a different USB-C port. Ensure the connected device is compatible with USB-C and has its own drivers installed. Restart the laptop. Check for Thunderbolt/USB driver updates.
