The Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 Gaming Laptop, model number 82K20003US, is not user upgradable. A certified technician must do all of the work, so as to not void the warranty. This configuration ships with 8GB DDR4-3200MHz RAM (1x 8GB SO-DIMM DDR4-3200MHz RAM), within the two DDR4 SO-DIMM slots, dual-channel capable. The maximum supported RAM Memory for this configuration is up to 16GB DDR4-3200MHz RAM. There is a 512GB M.2 2280 PCIe 3.0x4 NVMe solid state hard drive installed. The maximum storage memory supported by this configuration is: up to two drives, 1x 2.5 inch HDD + 1x M.2 2242 SSD or 1x M.2 2242/2280 SSD + 1x M.2 2242 SSD - 2.5 inch HDD up to 1TB - M.2 2242 SSD up to 512GB or M.2 2280 SSD up to 1TB. We recommend you consult with your certified technician about your upgrade options.

The Lenovo experts answer was legally worded but didn't make the answer clear. There is no soldered RAM on this laptop according to Lenovo Product Specification Reference. This laptop has two DDR4 SO-DIMM slots and is shipped with 1x8GB DDR4-3200. I almost chose to eliminate this laptop as an option because of the phrasing of the Lenovo response. The Lenovo Product Specification Reference page is linked below. To be clear, the RAM is able to be upgraded, but according to their specification, only 2x8GB or 1x16GB would be supported upgrades. https://psrefstuff.lenovo.com/Detail/IdeaPad/IdeaPad_Gaming_3_15ACH6?M=82K20003US

This is actually illegal what you are describing. By law, you cannot void warranty for a user to install ram correctly. This is illegal. For that reason, I’m out. I could not trust a company that does not even know the law.
