This Chromebook is an excellent entry-level device suitable for younger children. Its lightweight and comfortable design ensures portability. The CPU operates efficiently and does not overheat during basic tasks such as browsing and video calls. It is equipped with all the necessary ports, including one USB-C port, two USB-A ports, one HDMI port, and a microSD card reader. The 2K screen is sharp and visually appealing, although its brightness may be improved for outdoor use. The typing experience is satisfactory, with a surprisingly flawless touchpad. The battery life is moderate, requiring weekly charging for light usage. However, I believe that the CPU and RAM may not be sufficient for long-term use.

This little Chromebook does a lot more than I ever expected. After 7 years, my MacBook Pro screen started having issues. I have more of a Chromebook than MacBook budget now so an equal replacement wasn’t possible. After a lot of searching, I found this one. The keyboard is nice. Trackpad responsive and easy to use. Screen is good, audio is good…but here’s the best part that I didn’t expect. I can play actual PC games using GeForce now. It handles them without issue. Winning!
The battery lasts easily all day at work and I really don’t even need to charge it to keep using it at home.
It was used with a projector to show a movie to a summer camp group, no problem.
Prints wirelessly, no problem.

Product quality was good. Got mine during sale, and boy I did not regret buying it. After a few days, the price went back to regular and I was glad I purchased it.
I’ve been using the Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 3i Chromebook for everyday tasks, and overall I’m happy with it. The flip (2-in-1) design is very convenient — I can use it as a regular laptop for typing, flip it into tent mode for watching videos, or tablet mode when I just want to browse or read.
The battery life is solid and easily lasts me most of the day for web browsing, streaming, and Google Docs work. Chrome OS runs smoothly for basic productivity, and it boots up very fast, which is great when I need to quickly get online.
The touchscreen is responsive, and the device feels lightweight and portable, making it easy to carry for school, work, or travel.
On the downside, this Chromebook is not meant for heavy multitasking or advanced software. Storage is limited, and performance is best for basic tasks like browsing, streaming, emails, and school or office work. The keyboard is decent but may feel small if you’re used to larger laptops.
Overall, this is a great budget-friendly 2-in-1 laptop for students, light work, or everyday use. If you mainly use web apps and want something portable with long battery life, this is a solid choice.

This is my first chromebook, i have a big laptop for gaming and samsung phone for doom scrolling, so i wanted something to bridge the gap between the two. This is perfect. Battery lasts forever, great screen, decent speakers. All at a great price. My only gripe is that the keyboard isnt backlit, but i knew that when i purchased it.

The touch-screen feature of this product is very useful in my job. The size of the laptop perfectly fits my work backpack. All the apps that I'm using in my Google phone are synced in this laptop. Most of all, I love the simple and neat interface.

I updated my old Acer R11 Chromebook to this. I just use it for basic web browsing and for a recipe book in the kitchen. Its decently fast, sharp and vivid screen, battery life is more than enough for watching youtube all way without plugging in. I kind of like the keyboard and the webcam block is something that i like for privacy.

This Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 3i s an amazing little Chromeboook with touchscreen that flips back and works flawlessly as a pad. However after 8 months I had a problem with the laptop shutting down instead of sleeping that was resolved with a full refresh/reset. Additionally, the battery that is supposed to last for 10 hours only now lasts for about 4 hours with less than 80 cycles of charging. So I'm only giving it 4 stars and may bring in for a battery replacement before 1 yearr warranty is up.

It's working out great. I bought this for my ill husband who is on bedrest presently. He had a desire to put down his thoughts of his life and memories since he is on hospice .
He researched this for months. being a past software and hardware engineer for most of his adult life, this was his choice. It was a little hard to navigate for him initially because he has brain cancer and secondly, because it is not a Mac, which he was so used to.
Once he got everything adjusted and got comfortable with it (after about a week), he was all set. The speech-to-text is perfect for him and we are happy to say he has just published his first Kindle book on Amazon about GBM and his life.
I did work with chat for a bit before I bought this and was guided about its capabilities. As well, I immediately bought a "work in" case to protect it. he is very happy with it!
