Customer Ratings & Reviews

I appreciate practical value over flashy features. This Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 in Abyss Blue serves as an excellent, reliable daily driver that punches above its price tag. Design: Lightweight, portable, and looks sharp, though the plastic body has minor flex. Display & Keyboard: Crisp 15.6" Full HD screen, though viewing angles are average. The keyboard is exceptional and highly comfortable for typing. Performance: The AMD Ryzen 5 processor handles dozens of browser tabs and spreadsheets effortlessly. Windows 11: OS navigation, boot times, and multitasking feel are fluid, thanks to the SSD optimization. Webcam: The built-in camera is adequate for standard video calls and Zoom meetings, though video quality gets grainy in low-light settings. Storage & Battery: The 8GB RAM and 256GB SSD are fast enough for casual use but best suited for general tasks rather than heavy media storage. Battery life averages a decent 5–6 hours. Pros: Snappy Windows 11 responsiveness Excellent tactile keyboard Fast Ryzen 5 performance Sharp, lightweight design Great overall budget value Cons: Narrow screen viewing angles Grainy webcam in low light Limited 256GB storage space Mediocre battery life It lacks premium metal materials, but for dependable everyday performance on a budget, it earns a solid 4 out of 5 stars.

Very great computer for everyday needs and moderate game play. I have been playing the sims perfectly fine! It’s light weight and holds charge perfectly.

Pros - versatile for MS and Chromebooks. Able to download variety of apps so usable for school and home. OS is Microsoft and is familiar. Games are working well. Downloads and playing the games is good. Likes the screen, good size and easy to read, nice size for laptop, easy to carry around. Great price over Memorial Day weekend. Able to purchase accessories and 3 year warranty and still less than msrp. Cons - doesn’t like MS edge as search engine since it seems to use a lot of AI. Will switch search engines, Will be using at school and home. The sales person, Chris from the Rockford IL Best Buy store was extremely knowledgeable and helpful with this purchase. Enjoys the versatile screen savers. Note that some of the MS School apps require subscription.

Excellent product, I’ve used it for around 2 months and I haven’t had any problems with it, I’ve been using it for school and assignments, all the apps run smoothly and effectively.

For the price I think they could reduce the storage and increase the ram for faster compute. I think the laptop lags heavily.

I’ve had a great experience with this laptop so far. It’s lightweight, boots up quickly, and handles everyday tasks like browsing, streaming, schoolwork, and office applications with ease.

I recently picked up a Lenovo laptop from Best Buy, and so far, I'm really happy with it! The staff at Best Buy were super helpful in guiding me to the right model for my needs, which was a great start. Setting it up at home was a breeze, and I was up and running in no time. Performance-wise, this Lenovo has been a champ. It handles all my daily tasks—browsing, streaming, and some light work—without any hiccups. The display is crisp and clear, making everything look great, and the keyboard is comfortable for typing, which is a big plus for me. The battery life has also been impressive, letting me work or watch movies for hours without needing to plug in.

Best Buy made the purchasing experience smooth, and the laptop itself has lived up to expectations. It's a solid choice for anyone needing a dependable computer for everyday use.

After twenty plus years of owning desktops, I am very happy with my choice of this laptop. This computer is for my person use and is working out very well. I am especially happy with the screen size and sharpness, the way it performs and the fact that it is portable.

I had a 9 year old Lenovo laptop which was slowwww. I explained to the salesperson what I needed and was looking for and this was his suggestion. It's quick, it's light, is a nice color (though its smooth case does show fingerprints) and the store was helpful and speedy in helping me get it set up. Its slots don't quite take cables I had previously used for hardwiring and my printer but I haven't needed them and I can easily need to get replacements. I use the laptop at home primarily for email and visiting new websited too large to be accurattely viewed on my phone.

I’ve been using the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 for a month, and i must say it’s been a reliable everyday machine. The Ryzen 5 processor handles multitasking smoothly and it is fast, also, the 15.6" Full HD screen looks crisp for streaming, browsing, and schoolwork. It boots quickly thanks to the 256GB SSD, and the overall design feels lightweight without feeling cheap. For basic productivity, schoolwork, and general use, it performs better than I expected at this price point (deal of the day steal). If you need a dependable laptop for daily tasks, this is a great choice and no regrets for the 1st few weeks

We purchased two of these for homeschooling and they have been wonderful to use. They are the perfect size and do everything we need them to do and more! My kids love how easy they were to set up and they are able to take them on the go as needed. The screen is clear and they have great audio! Glad we purchased these and the price was excellent compared to others out there that don't have as many features with a smaller screen size!

Great laptop for everyday use! I love the Abyss Blue color—it’s sleek and eye-catching. It runs smoothly, boots up fast, and the Full HD screen looks great. Lightweight, reliable, and an excellent value for the price.

Overall performance! , portability; the price and the service! The scree quality is also great. Thanks!

I am very happy with this computer. It is fast, reliable, and easy to use. The setup was simple, and everything works smoothly without any issues. The performance is excellent for work, school, and everyday tasks. The design is modern, and the quality feels great. I definitely recommend this computer to anyone looking for a dependable and high-quality device.

very useful and easy to use. Like the design and speed.

Not bad so far for the price! Display is good with a big screen and battery life out of the box is great!

I didn't realize when i bought this rig that you cannot upgrade the RAM. It is soldered on. You also have to get special SDD to increase it beyond 256GB. I made the ASSumption that you could upgrade the RAM and SSD with just standard gear, as my HP and other laptops afford. I didn't know this until i opened it--at which time, i could no longer return it. I run Linux on it and that is a "joy". There are no native drivers so you have to github...which is perfectly acceptable and standard. I know this is geared toward WIndows. Drivers for USB and Wifi were too much of a hassle, so i use dongles which provide better speed and support nonetheless. If i had a chance, i would have returned this budget rig for something that will last me more than [what i assume] is going to be a year or two. This is a perfect laptop for someone with no expectations

This is a great laptop, easy to use and user friendly. I basically bought it for genealogy work I have been doing for 25 plus years and needed something to apply the software and files on as digital seems easier. Haven't found anything bad to say about it at this time.
