    This review doesn’t reflect Best Buy, it’s the fact you can’t upgrade the laptop at all. With Chromebooks you can’t upgrade memory, ram, etc.

      The Lenovo Flex 3 11 Chromebook uses Google Docs for office type programs. Google Docs is completely compatible with Microsoft Office Programs and this is a free service through the Google Server. If you must have the actual Microsoft Office Programs, you can purchase Microsoft Office 365 for this Chromebook at the Google Play Store. Lenovo

    Portable, all-purpose laptop

    Depending on your experience with Google, Chromebooks can be hit or miss. At times, these devices can feel a bit lacking in substance despite the relatively lower price points. Luckily, Lenovo's IdeaPad Flex 3 is right on the mark. With versatile modes, ideal size, and generous battery life, this Chromebook is just the device you need to stay productive at home and on the go. The IdeaPad Flex 3 is light and more portable than most full-sized laptops, yet it still contains a full keyboard and large trackpad inside. The outer shell is smooth with a partial textured surface that aids with grip, and the bottom has rubberized pads that function for stability on any surface but also for padding when used in tablet mode. Overall, the build feels durable and able to withstand its share of bumps and dings from regular use at home or from a commute. Inside, the keyboard is your usual chiclet style with comfortably responsive keys, while the trackpad is surprisingly large and very smooth. The 0.5" screen bezel is a little thick for my taste but it's not terribly disruptive. With a 11.6" IPS touchscreen display, the Flex 3 provides enough screen real estate for all your computing needs and is very responsive on the surface as a tablet. When used in tent and tablet modes, the keyboard turns off, with the side buttons for volume and power becoming your only functioning keys. The Flex 3 has a USB-A and USB-C port, along with a micro-SD slot for extra storage. Rounding out the edge is a headphone jack, although the Bluetooth works just fine as well. The speakers are average - don't expect to start the party with this machine. On the plus side, the Chromebook boots up very quickly, runs multiple normal tasks smoothly, and lasts a very long time between charges with regular usage. The laptop takes full advantage of Google Assistant, so besides being fully accessible through its touchscreen or keyboard, you may allow voice commands as well to control smart devices on your network or to access entertainment. The full-on Google suite experience is at your fingertips too, with Drive, Sheets, Docs, etc. available at the touch of a button, along with easy Play Store access to get new content quickly. Lenovo makes work and play seamless with the IdeaPad Flex 3. Versatile, durable, and easy to access work or entertainment, the IdeaPad Flex 3 laptop is a great Chromebook option for the consumer that wants a do-it-all machine. Whether you're working at home or on the go, or you want to relax with a device that is an entertainment outlet, Lenovo's laptop will quickly become your go-to device. Full disclosure, I received this product for my honest, unbiased review.

    Chromebook works great!

    This is a really nice looking chromebook that works very well. It arrived packaged nicely and turned right on straight out of the box. The set-up was very easy and straight to the point. I love how you can set up google family so you can approve apps and downloads for kids. It connected easily to my wi-fi and the set up was less than 20 minutes all together. I love that it is touchscreen and you can fold it to use as a tablet. My son uses this to watch his shows on hulu, play roblox and do schoolwork and it works perfectly. My son said "The graphics and picture on the laptop is really nice." It does not have a ton of memory, but that is ok because I can just add an external hard drive or usb drive if necessary. So far it is great. I have not had any connection issues or issues with the computer running slow. It actually runs smoothly for a chromebook that does not have a ton of memory. The battery lasts over 6 hours without having to charge it. When the battery finally died, it reached full charge in about 30-45 minutes. I would def recommend this chromebook.

    Lenovo - Flex 3 11" 2-in-1 Chromebook Laptop was the perfect first laptop for my granddaughters. Effortless setup. As a laptop, its 4GB of memory runs very fast. And the touchscreen makes it more hands-on to breeze through your tasks. And with an easy flip, you have an excellent tablet to enjoy your games and videos.

    I remember having a netbook back years and years ago. I had it dual-booting OS X & had a lot of fun with it. Sadly it died due to the carelessness of a friend I let use it. Since the Chromebooks remind me of the netbooks I have wanted one for a long time. The Lenovo Chromebook is such a cool little device & I am writing the stack of reviews I need to write on it right now. Setup was a breeze, setting it up to allow for Android apps too was super easy. I am having a lot of fun playing around with this new OS since it is a tad different than Windows. However, having run various flavors of the *nix operating systems it isn't super weird or anything. I am really impressed at home responsive this little device is. It boots quick, launches everything quick & does a dang good job at word processing and paying bills! I am estatic and over the moon with this Lenovo Flex 3 Chromebook. I can't believe I waited so long to give one a try. I have found my general use and bill paying device and I can't thank Lenovo enough for allowing me to try this awesome little Chromebook.

    Basic Chromebook, Basic Uses

    The chromebook is a nifty little laptop lite. I like it because it does all the basic things i need, web browsing, emails and expandable memory via the micro sd slot. The issue is if you want to multi-task or attack memory heavy programs the lag is very noticeable. I know its chromebook but i think the responsiveness of most tablets performs better. I think it is a chromebook that will be outgrown quickly.

    Nice Chromebook. First for me. Great for web browsing, emails and works with all my apps. Can't really compare it since it is my first such device. Battery life is about 3 to 4 days for me. Connects to my wi-fi quickly. Hotspot works well with my android phone. Touchscreen works well as a tablet.

    Its good, the size, the screen. touch screen helps at times if i need signatures. the keyboard is a comfy size, good noise. I think the only bad thing is the graphics. Out of 10, I'd give it a 8.5.
