FAQs

What does 'Refurbished' mean for this product?

Refurbished means the laptop has been previously used and professionally restored to full working order. It has undergone testing, cleaning, and quality checks in an ISO-certified facility. Data has been securely erased, and it comes with a genuine Windows license. It may have minor cosmetic signs of use.

What operating system is installed?

The laptop comes pre-installed with a genuine Microsoft Windows 10 Pro license.

What is the warranty coverage?

The laptop comes with a 2-year warranty. However, the battery is covered for 6 months of that warranty period.

Can I upgrade the RAM or SSD?

The RAM is onboard and not upgradeable. The SSD is in an M.2 form factor and may be upgradeable depending on specific components and physical space, but this is not officially supported or recommended for refurbished units.

Is this laptop suitable for gaming?

How is the battery life?

The maximum rated battery life is up to 21.3 hours. Actual battery life will vary depending on usage, settings, and other factors.

Does it have an Ethernet port?

No, this model does not come with a built-in Ethernet (LAN) port. You will need a USB-to-Ethernet adapter for wired network connections.

Troubleshooting

Laptop will not power on

Ensure the AC adapter is securely connected to both the laptop and a working power outlet. Try a different outlet. If using a docking station, try connecting the AC adapter directly to the laptop.

Wi-Fi connection is unstable or slow

Restart your router and modem. Ensure you are within range of the Wi-Fi signal. Check if the Wi-Fi driver is up to date through Windows Update or Lenovo's support site. Verify that Wi-Fi 6 is supported by your router for optimal performance.

Screen display is dim or flickering

Adjust the screen brightness settings in Windows. Ensure the display driver is up to date. If flickering persists, check the display cable connection internally (professional service recommended) or contact support regarding potential hardware issues.
