Customer Ratings & Reviews

I've used this Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook extensively for work, religious study materials, video meetings, and daily productivity, not just casual browsing. One of the biggest strengths of this laptop is how well it integrates with the Google ecosystem. I use a Google Pixel 9 Pro, and the sync between my phone and this Chromebook is seamless, documents, apps, and workflows move effortlessly between devices. For work-related tasks, Google Meet, productivity apps, document editing, spreadsheets, and presentations, it performs smoothly and reliably. I often run multiple tabs at the same time, and overall performance has been excellent. The only occasional slowdown comes when an app or service requires a ChromeOS update before proceeding, which isn’t frequent but worth noting. Boot time is fast, especially waking from sleep. Video quality and audio are surprisingly strong for this class of Chromebook, and Bluetooth connectivity with other devices has been flawless. The 14" Full HD display is clear and bright. Streaming services look great, and text clarity for documents like Word files, Excel sheets, and PowerPoint presentations has been consistently solid. The touchscreen works, but I’d rate it about a 7–8 out of 10, it requires very precise taps. Because of that, I mostly rely on an external mouse. Typing comfort is excellent. The keyboard is well spaced and comfortable even during long typing sessions. The trackpad is responsive, though I personally prefer using a USB mouse. Battery life has been good for a full day of mixed work and entertainment use and has exceeded my expectations overall. Build quality feels sturdy and well-made, not flimsy. It’s lightweight and portable, making it easy to travel with whether by car or plane. I’m very familiar with ChromeOS, and that was a major reason I chose this model. If you’re already invested in Google devices, this Chromebook fits naturally into that workflow. Around the 2-year mark, the laptop stopped charging and needed repair. If it weren’t for BestBuy’s 3-year protection plan ($60), this would have become unusable. Because of that experience, I strongly recommend getting the protection plan. This is a great Chromebook for students, professionals, and anyone already using Google devices, fast, reliable, and well-integrated. Just don’t skip the protection plan.

The only reason it gets four stars is because it doesn't have a number pad, which I knew when I bought it and for the price point it's okay. But I do miss having the separate number pad. I love the color it's very lightweight the battery is great the resolution is good. As long as you know that when you're buying a Chromebook it's not exactly like a full PC but if you're comfortable with using the Google suite of products then this is a great little laptop for personal use.

Great on the go computer. Chrome can be stubborn. Take the time to research the operating system, if buying a chromebook for the first time.

This is first time using chromebook. Laptops battery longs for more than a day. Design is sturdy and it looks premium. Applications like chrome, youtube works smoothly. The file manager is not equivalent to windows file explorer, but works. Some apps in play store are not designed for chromebook and there is slight display related issues, but manageable. Overall very good laptop for mild usages.

I really like it. It charges very fast and the charge lasts a long time. Though it's all plastic, it doesn't seem flimsy at all. It's very light weight. For me, it was a considerable learning curve from my Windows 10 laptop with Core I7, 512Gb SSD and 16Gb DDR4. One must remember, it's a Chromebook, utilizing the Chrome OS, limiting you to Android Apps from the Google Play Store. Would I recommend it? Of course I would, with reservations.

Honestly was not what I was looking for when I went into the store. I really like my Lenovo products, I have a few. The Chromebook makes it easy to connect things to and from my new android phone. I can easily update and share calendars and Google documents. Battery life has been great. Although I haven't tested a full day of constant use yet. I only give it a 4 right now as I haven't had much time with the product to fully review it. However, I think this is a great little Chromebook from my first impressions.

I love the ease of the touchscreen. Its truly a beautiful laptop. The one thing i will say is i should have done my research. This laptop is not compatible with my label printer which is upsetting. As well as it seems to glitch every now and again and run very slow, to the point where I have to restart it.

One thing nice is it can multitask . has a good picture plus touch screen

Device has excellent screen clarity. I really like the touch screen feature. Not happy that the cursor jumps away from where I’m typing and I have delete what was typed in wrong place and start over in correct spot.

Great for the price if you don’t need to do anything fancy. I use just for email and google drive and it’s fine for that. Runs slow without an SSD so I wouldn’t recommend if you need it for anything other than basic internet stuff.

Not what I was thinking but it gets the job done with what I need.

Reasonably priced, enjoy having a touchscreen, but I do wish I had a full keyboard.

I bought this for my son for school. It’s pretty basic. He said it’s just like the one that the school gave him to use previously just a little bigger. He seems to like it.

Decent chrome book for basic task IE video consumption and web browsing . Does bog down some time but not bad . I use this daily

It’s good for light workloads and game play with a beautiful design and display. It’s light and portable with easy use for those that aren’t as tech savvy. Only drawback is that it doesn’t support Microsoft programs

Touch screen dosemt run all wondows and some files dont open

Good performance, outstanding display. But after just 11 months, the letters have worn off about 10 keys, and I was making so many typing mistakes the backspace key is getting a crack in it. Lenovo will fix this under warranty but what a hassle.

Came in great condition. But going to flag windows on it

Good laptop for those that are looking for something just to navigating and just working remote

Got this for my kid for school. The build quality is good and he's happy with the performance. He's been using the school's Chromebooks for a couple of years now and he's happy with his own now. It can handle some light web gaming just fine. Can do HDMI with a USB-C to HDMI adapter, however you will lose the ability to charge at the same time, but battery life is quite good! Wi-fi is acceptable but not great. I'm used to Macbook Pros and i7 Gaming Laptops and the Wifi in this Chromebook isn't nearly as good, unfortunately, but that's understandable in a machine of this class. The speakers are above average sounding better than my gaming laptop, but not as good as my work Macbook pro. My kid really liked the color since it wasn't your typical black or silver/gray. I was skeptical of the MediaTek chip, but it seems to be doing just fine. For the price, this seems like a great machine so far and has a great AUE date out to June 2032 so there is plenty of life in this machine. I wish it had 8 GB of RAM, but again for the price point, 4GB seems pretty standard and sufficient.
