Customer Ratings & Reviews

Cannot complain. The battery life on this is incredible, which was one of the main reasons I wanted a chromebook. It is also light, another of my requirements. The only thing missing is the backlit keyboard, which is not too much of a problem since I am a touch typist. This is my first Chromebook and the Lenovo did a fantastic job, easy to adjust sound, screen brightness, plus get to other settings. As long as there are apps to accomplish some features such as light photo/video editing and office 365, I am good. The processor handles the task with no stutter or lag so far. Chromebook also has an auto delete function after time to keep the memory free. No regrets, impressed so far.

The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook is a fantastic budget-friendly option for everyday tasks. The 14-inch Full HD touchscreen is a standout feature, offering a bright and clear display for browsing, streaming, and light work. With a long-lasting battery and a lightweight design, it’s perfect for students or anyone needing a portable companion. While the MediaTek processor and 4GB of RAM are best suited for simple multitasking, its performance is more than adequate for a smooth Chrome OS experience.

Excellent Laptop – Fast, Reliable, and Worth Every Penny I’ve been using this laptop for a while now, and it has exceeded all my expectations. The performance is fast and smooth, whether I’m browsing, streaming, multitasking, or running more demanding programs. The battery life is impressive—it easily lasts through a full day of work without needing a charge. The display is bright, clear, and great for watching videos or doing creative work. The keyboard feels comfortable and responsive, and the overall build quality is solid without being too heavy. I also appreciate how quickly it starts up and how quietly it runs. Overall, this is one of the best laptops I’ve owned. Reliable, powerful, and perfect for everyday use or work. Highly recommend!

The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook is a great budget laptop for everyday use. The 14" Full HD touchscreen is sharp and responsive, and it runs smoothly for browsing, streaming, and school work. It's lightweight, has excellent battery life, and looks sleek in Abyss Blue. Perfect for students or casual users - great value for the price.

The battery life feels like it lasts forever, which makes it perfect for working on the go. The screen is large, clear, and responsive with the touchscreen feature. It’s lightweight and very easy to travel with, making it a great option for commuting, business trips, or everyday use. Overall, very satisfied with the performance and portability.

Awesome laptop touchscreen easy setup, clear screen, lightweight,

I needed a backup to my other laptop, as I had to do some hectic travelling. This also included being at the hospital where my wife was recovering. I saw the Lenovo, and never owned one, but being in a rush, I ordered it. A cursory look at the reviews, not as incisive as I normally would. It was very affordable, anyway. Receiving it, as always prompt and reliable as usual for My Best Buy, I was taken in immediately. Its color was unique, very stylish. Lightweight, deceptively frail but actually sturdy. I sat down and tinkered, thinking ahead that I'll give doing this for a few obligatory minutes. I was pleasantly mistaken, this is one great Chromebook, very manageable, user friendly and exceeded my expectations. First impressions? Later, amazing impression. My title says it eloquently, amazing find indeed. Best Buy scores again! I just got off it and doing this review on my phone, would have laid it out on my Lenovo had not a previous call come in on my smartphone. Still, I repeat, Amazing Find!

Perfect laptop! It does everything I need, it has camera access, and it is very fast. Excellent quality I am happy I got it, It has touchscreen as a bonus!

tl;dr: The 2023 Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 14" is a great value in a clamshell touchscreen Chromebook with superior battery life and a distant June of 2032 AUE date (two years longer than even the "hot new" HP Dragonfly Pro introduced at the same time.) It does everything a Chromebook should! It has USB-C (which can be used to drive a second display at least FHD), USB A, and a uSD slot. The plastic case feels sturdy and stiff and not cheap; bulkier than the metal-cased HP 13G1 it replaced but is still sub- 3 lbs. FHD resolution screen with a matte anti-reflection surface specs slightly brighter than HP x360 models at this price point. Touchscreen, trackpad, and keyboard are all as expected. Backlit keyboard and a fingerprint reader would be nice but are not typical at this price point. Camera is as expected beyond having a physical shutter. With 4GB of memory and the low power/long battery life MediaTek Kompanio 520 CPU, it has been snappy and responsive in everything I've used it for, constrained only by the network and web; so, this makes it just what a Chromebook should be. It stays cool to the touch doing everything I've asked of it. (If it has a fan, I've never heard it.) My only complaint is that the case finish and color show every fingerprint. The extended AUE date is a cherry on top. Did I mention it has great battery life?

Satisfied buyer. This laptop exceeds my expectations and more. Got it to be able to do some projects and so far has been a great experience. I see some in the comments with concerns of speed however, my experience has been the complete opposite. Quite exceptional if you ask me. Great size without being overly heavy, I spent a few hours on it after charging the 1st day I got it and I couldn’t be more content. Spent more hours on it after having it a few weeks and can honestly say this is the first laptop that doesn’t have my legs feeling like hot pockets fresh out the microwave. Haha but in all seriousness. So many options, so many reviews. I say trust your instinct. I purchased when it was on sale and for the price it was a great buy. A few cheaper but if you are a review seeker like me you would’ve ended up here(that is if you were looking to spend under $200 of course). More options for higher prices but, like many of us, are just looking to get the most for our money spent and have it be budget friendly. Otherwise we’d be on Apple purchasing the newest iMac. Can’t say anything bad about it, would recommend to anyone looking for something fast enough to handle daily tasks and or a multitasker looking to work multiple systems. It doesn’t disappoint.

I’ve been using the IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook for a few months now, and it’s been a great budget-friendly option. The 14” Full HD touchscreen is vibrant and responsive, perfect for casual browsing and light productivity. The lightweight design makes it easy to carry, and the battery life is impressive, lasting all day. However, it can feel a bit slow with heavier tasks. Overall, a solid choice for students or basic use!

Best deal at Best Buy, Chromebook with touch screen, ssd, lightweight, decent screen resolution and excellent battery life.

This is my first Chromebook ever. Always used my Dell Windows Desktop and my Lenovo Laptop. The desktop can not be upgraded to Windows 11 the Laptop runs 11 but is slow even though its a Icore5. For most of what I do the Chromebook is amazing because its so much faster and so many applications are cloud based. Previously I was hesitant because you have to have a WiFi connection but now heck almost everywhere you there's a WiFi connection. I've always had a google account so that made it easy. I am having trouble using LINUX so that I can use some MS applications I'm not sure why that is and its a little frustrating but I'm relearning the google equivalents of MS Office. For Web Browsing its awesome.

This is a very nice chromebook. The appearance and screen is exceptional. Great for web browsing and streaming. It is 4 gigs/64 ram I wish it was 8gigs other than that I am very happy with my purchase. This chromebook is excellent for those on the go 100% portable. I am happy I purchase it and the screen quality is awesome. Battery life is great 13 hours easy.

Chromebook user for years, but I’ve always given up features for cost. With this, I didn’t have to. The screen is amazing, keyboard tactile response is spot on, and the speed, overall weight, and size are perfect for ‘armchair’ computing. I love this thing

Great laptop fast proficient great look feel processor is great screen is amazing do anything quick and easy

With me , I like the touch screen features. Very comfortable and lightweight as well. Simple but so complex with the reliability factors. Long battery life !!!!

Got this for my niece. It is a great starter computer. Good battery life. Nice screen size and picture.
