Lenovo - Chromebook 3 11.6" HD Laptop - Celeron N4020 - 4GB Memory - 64GB eMMC - Onyx Black

I love my Chromebook works very well. I was looking for something affordable and this was definitely it for me. $100 is a steal for what it is capable of. I would definitely purchase Lenovo products again.

Perfect size, still getting used to it been using Windows too long.

For a Chromebook, it works great. I bought for the price, not the specs.

I usually never write reviews but this little gem deserves it. For the price this can't be beat. It is well constructed and lightweight. 2 USB C ports and 2 USB-A ports and a little micro SD memory expansion slot that I have not used. Battery life is great, boots up fast and so far no problems. I bought this as a way to work remotely when I don't want to lug the heavy corporate laptop but could still work if needed, and if I lost or damaged it I wouldn't have to worry too much. - installed Linux - installed VPN software - installed remote desktop software - installed MS outlook and Teams Enough tools to work remotely, albeit a little cramped. I have also attached this to a docking station (Dell) and with no software required I have been able to use an external wireless keyboard and mouse and drive 3 screens with no problems. Downsides: Google's lousy software and support. My MS Teams stopped working due to a change by my company IT, so I was required to reinstall it. Google goes not allow a reinstall (?) and exits from the play store with a useless message. So I am now stuck with the Teams web interface. FWIW half the apps don't work too well as Google is trying to shoehorn Android software onto the ChromeOS platform. I feel I am back in the days where things didn't "just work". Google's support and development of ChromeOS is just pathetic and seems almost like an afterthought to Android. However, to be fair, for most users everything should just work perfectly, and they should not have to tweak anything and face any of the issues that are very specific to my specific needs.

I purchased this laptop when it was $80. So far it has exceeded my expectations. The reason I gave it only 4 stars is due to the screen. The TN panel is really washed out and colors do not show very well, but other than that this is a great buy. The USB C and USB A ports it comes with are great for such a small and light laptop. The laptop is pretty snappy and I have not seen any sluggishness. Battery life at about 10 hours is enough to get through my day. The additional microSD card reader allows me to store video files when I travel so I can watch movies and tv shows without an internet connection. Lenovo always has great keyboards and trackpads and this laptop is no different, the only issue is the keys are not backlit. At this price point, I really could not have expected that, but it would have been a nice addition. One thing I really like that is not in any review is that there is a rubberized strip on the bottom. I use this laptop on a lap tray and it stays in place very well and does not move during use on the tray's smooth surface. I would recommend this to anyone that needs a small lightweight general-use laptop. Even at the normal price of $140 it is a good buy, but when on sale it is a steal.

I got this to replace a tablet for my 84 year old mother--wanted to dummy it down (Facebook, eMail, Netflix, Youtube). However, it turned out MUCH better than expected--hate to give it to her now. ;-) It is solid (looks like the same for all their Chromebook models), boots quick, is VERY fast and responsive (could be Chrome OS), keys felt great, it zips around just fine. Even has AC network (clocked at over 300 mb). It has more ports than others I saw, even a microSD card slot for expansion (although not highlighted anywhere). It is faster than my wife's 15" Lenovo with Windows, 8 gb ram, SSD, AMD, etc. Completely impressed. It is usually 169, got if for $79 (yep--killer deal). I'm thinking of quickly getting another extra. The new model uses I3 instead of Celeron (probably reason for discount). What a great surprise.

I bought this tiny laptop because I was exhausted from my heavy windows gaming laptop during my trip. It is a great deal with just a total of $90 and it is surprising it comes with a universal 45W Type-C PD adapter. This laptop is very light, with almost 9h of battery usage time. The N4020 is not good in performance but works smoothly in Chrome OS while web browsing, checking email, or watching youtube videos. You do will notice a slow down while running a Linux app, like VScode(this even can run vscode!), or view an online google sheet. It has two full-function type-c ports, good design. The screen was not good in both resolution and limited view angle, but enough for this price. However, I would recommend the Lenovo Chromebook 3 11' touch screen version with IPS screen rather than TN in this version. The touchscreen version has a much better view angle.

Just going to lay it out simply. I got this at an insane price but its still worth it at retail. Pros: - Build quality is great. Keyboard sounds and feels great. Sound is actually amazing for being what it is. - Weight is balanced. Heavy enough to feel solid and premium, light enough to go anywhere. - Battery life is insane. I bought this 9 days ago and I'm still on a single charge with 28% remaining. Daily use for shorter periods of checking email, watching youtube, browsing, etc. - Zippy quick. the N4020 is worth its weight in gold. Solid functionality - Open and go or close and set aside, no need to shut down. - Linux subsystems Cons: - The one complaint I have about the build quality - trackpad and clicker do feel a bit cheap but not enough to be annoying. - Screen. It's small so not good for everything. Colors are a bit washed out and not super bright. - Glorified android phone. Nuances that come with chromeOS. (apps, functionality) - Large bezels around the screen
