Lenovo IdeaPad 3i Chromebook 15.6" FHD

I needed to have the Chromebook for cable connection to a HP Deskjet printer because so many headaches trying to use the printer with WiFi. Its own HP print app couldn't "find" the printer. The little Chromebook was on sale for 119, had the ports needed, and it came quickly from a nearby store. It found the printer with cable connection with no problem and could both scan and print with it using Chrome and Mopria print app. However, the margins were way off on print jobs with no apparent fix, and the printer scanner is the type that the document has to be rolled through. The pages kept crumpling. So, cable connected a Canon PIXMA ts3722 printer and YES, Big Bertha worked. Flatbed scanner, quality text only print job even on draft. The little Lenovo paid for itself right there. Forget the WiFi headaches, give me cable connect every time. I attached a USB hub to the Lenovo to expand its ports. It has one C port and I keep the power cord in that, so it required a hub with USB A connector. The Lenovo screen quality isn't the greatest, but it does what I need it to do. I popped a micro SD card in the slot to unload the files for printing. One funny thing, the file app shows the Lenovo as having a card on board already for memory, and I am wondering if there's one inside. The Chromebook has 4GB Memory with 64GB eMMC Storage. I don't use it for gaming or high demand anything, so that is fine with me. It's fairly small and lightweight. Generally I like to connect a Bluetooth keyboard so I can have it on my lap, but so far haven't needed it. I activated the voice to text feature and can speak to create text files. Generally I create text docs on my cellphones with Google Docs, save them to Drive, and don't need a full keyboard anymore. The Lenovo accepts Google Play store apps, and the Android / Chrome interface is easier for me now than Windows. I've had a Lenovo Chromebook before but gave it to someone who needed it. Glad I found this one on sale. Thanks to Best Buy and OnTrac for fast delivery.

Great for everyday tasks, browsing & productivity — For web browsing, writing documents, email, streaming, online classes, and light-duty productivity the IdeaPad 3i handles things smoothly. The combo of Chrome OS + its modest hardware is plenty for typical day-to-day use.

Long-ish battery life and portability — With a claimed battery life up to ~10 hours, it’s suitable for a full day of work, study, or travel without needing a charge.

The build is reasonably portable for a 15.6″ laptop, which helps if you need something you can move between home, school, coffee-shop, etc.
HS Tech

Simple, secure & maintenance-free computing (thanks to Chrome OS) — Running Chrome OS, it stays light and snappy, with automatic updates, built-in security, and access to web + Android apps — ideal if you prefer a no-fuss experience over complex Windows setups.

I bought this for my husband for Christmas and he loves it. He is used to using an iPad for social media, news, and browsing and then his computer for more work related activities. I didn’t know a lot about the brand but the reviews were great and the price was even better! He said it was easy to use and so far no issues with battery, audio, video, internet, or programs. I would recommend this to anyone looking for something more than an iPad or Chromebook but who doesn’t want to invest a lot of money into a name brand laptop.

I got this as a gift for my grandmother and she loves it. It’s not too complicated do her to use and it’s really helpful that she can connect her phone to it. Since everything is done through google it’s almost like a big tablet and it’s really easy to chance accessibility while we both love! I definitely recommend for a beginner or someone who isn’t super tech savvy but would like to start to get the flow.

I'm working very well with this computer. I loved this laptop. It has a very attractive design and excellent performance for my daily needs. What impressed me the most is the sound quality — it’s clear and powerful, perfect for listening to music or watching movies without extra speakers. Additionally, the battery lasts a long time, allowing me to use it for hours without worrying about recharging. I would definitely recommend it!
