The original IdeaPad S10 from Lenovo did not impress too many people. There were gripes about the battery life, the design, etc. The S10 did fix the battery life with an upgrade.

There’s also no Bluetooth, which is becoming increasingly frequent in laptops these days. But if you are the non-gaming movie-watching type, you will enjoy the rest of the features on this laptop.
