“Can this laptop be used with an external display while charging? I don't think this can because it only has 1 USB-C port which is used both for charging and for HDMI.”

This Lenovo Flex 3 11 Chromebook, model number 82KM0003US, ships with these ports: 1x USB 2.0 Type A, 1x USB-C 2.0 (support data transfer, Power Delivery 2.0, and DisplayPort 1.1a) with video out, 1x microSD card reader, 1x Headphone / microphone combo jack (3.5mm) The USB-c 2.0 port has both video out and power delivery capability. If you monitor is capable of power delivery back to the computer, it will charge the computer while the external monitor is plugged in. If you are using an HDMI monitor with a USB-c to HDMI adapter with this Flex 3 11 Chromebook that does not have power delivery capability back to the Chromebook, you will need to use a USB-c to HDMI adapter with power delivery capability, to be able to plug in the Flex 3 11 Chromebook's 45W USB-C (3-pin) AC adapter/charger, supports PD 3.0, 100-240V, 50-60Hz to the adapter as well, like this one: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/insignia-usb-c-to-4k-hdmi-multiport-adapter-with-power-delivery-white/5577934.p?skuId=5577934
