Question 1

Does this have a fingerprint scanner?

Accepted Answer

No, it does not. You would have to get something at a much higher price point or perhaps a refurbished laptop.

Question 2

Is this fanless?

Accepted Answer

No, there are vents beneath the joint for the screen. You can't see them unless you look from a particular angle but there is at least some powered ventilation. It definitely makes noise but nowhere near anything obnoxious. I can't tell you exactly how many fans but no, it's not fanless.

Question 3

it is my first laptop, so, may be  it should work like this. i got it 3 days ago, comparing to my 6yars old desktop it is turtle. what i did is remove imcafee and install norton. and also install firefox. i see using task manager from the start that  CPU works most of the time around 100% and RAM 4gb????

Accepted Answer

I have the same Model as you but a 7th generation. You shouldn't have that problem an more likely is that Norton is causing the CPU to be working as is running in the background or you have malware or been hack. If you have it that recent will be better to do a factory reset and see if the issue get resolved or just return it as may be effective.

Question 4

Does this laptop have multi-touch track pad?

Accepted Answer

Yes, as in swipe two fingers and it scrolls a page...
It can zoom in and out, etc.

Question 5

Can you add an additional SSD?

Accepted Answer

Better off adding external SSD.

Question 6

The Overview states this has "A responsive PCIe SSD—up to 256 GB", but the specs say it's a SATA. Would really like to see this updated to reflect which one it is?

Accepted Answer

The SSD drive is a Samsung MZ7LN256HAJQ-000L2 which is a SATA 6 Gbps drive.

Question 7

What type of SSD does this laptop has? SATA or PCIE (NVMe)?

Accepted Answer

SATA

Question 8

This is embarrassing... Newegg is unable to provide any information.. Lenovo is also unable to provide this information.. This model number is similar to lenovo's idea 330 but DOES NOT HAVE FHD screen only an HD screen.. What does this truly have?   Also which wifi card does this have 1x1 or 2x2? Is it dual band or not?

Accepted Answer

It has an FHD display, 1920x1080 resolution. The Wifi adapter is an Intel dual band AC 3165. I don't know what you mean by "1x1 or 2x2". The default configuratin is dual band, 802.11 a/b/g, but it can be configured as only a, b, g, a/g, or b/g.

Question 9

can upgrade the ram?

Accepted Answer

It might be possible...however there is no designated spot under the unit to identify where the RAM is installed. You would need to unscrew the entire bottom plate of the unit to see where everything is at. Same goes for the SSD, etc. 8GB is plenty though.

Question 10

is the display an IPS full HD?

Accepted Answer

Full HD 1920 x 1080
