Q: QuestionThis is not the model with the touchscreen even though it has the exact same name, so that's misleading. However, should this screen look washed out and hard to view unless at the perfect angle? The contrast seems bad and strains my eyes.

Asked 5 months ago by Kodi.

• A:Answer Hey Kodi, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with the viewing experience on your IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook. To provide context to the answer to this question, this model Slim 3 Chromebook features a TN panel display type, a display panel that generally has narrower viewing angles and lower color accuracy on average than other display types, such as IPS panel displays. This would explain why the color contrast seemingly reduces when the display is viewed at indirect angles. Please feel free to reach out to us should you have any issues with the function of your Chromebook, any concerns, or general questions. Best regards, Lenovo

Q: QuestionDoes this laptop hook up to a monitor and what do I need to do that?

Asked 1 month ago by MelissaD.

• A:Answer Yes, through the USB-C port. Get a USB-C docking station that has an HDMI port on it, connect it to your external monitor, and it should automatically extend the desktop. I used an Armstrong USB-C hub and an inexpensive 4K TV, and it worked perfectly.
