    Build quality was good, no glaring issues there. The computer functions as intended. There is an HDCP compliance issue which makes Prime Video have issues with this laptop even when using the provided chromeapp. This may be service related rather than the laptop's fault. The sound is not as good as my phone but I didn't buy it for entertainment. This is a device for work. All that being said, productivity wise the laptop does well, I was able to do my writing as well as get work done at my day job. The laptop offered good speed for what it is and is comfortable enough when typing. I haven't used a chromebook since the first ones came out and I'm very happy overall with the usability and functional improvements they added. TLDR: Good productivity laptop that does okay on entertainment.

    Great and fast! Honestly I’m not a big computer person anymore. I do everything on my phone but felt like I needed another device if I ever run into something that doesn’t support mobile. It’s a Chromebook, so there’s a few things you won’t be able to do compared to to a windows laptop. But I don’t find myself having a need for anything like that yet. This is great for a student, parent or anybody that needs something that won’t break the bank. I got this on sale for about $130ish. So it’s been great so far for the price

    It's honestly so great, it has an amazing color. Beautiful, clear, and crisp visuals perfect for streaming or gaming. The battery life is excellent, and it has ample memory and storage. I am currently a first-year PSEO student, and this has made my journey easier so far. I'm looking forward to use this beautiful Chromebook.

    Fantastic Budget Laptop for Students & Daily Brows

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I recently picked up the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook (14"), and it has been a solid addition to my daily routine. For the price, the 1080p Full HD screen is surprisingly crisp—much better than the 720p screens you usually see at this price point. The MediaTek Kompanio 520 processor handles web browsing and streaming YouTube perfectly fine. While 4GB of RAM means you shouldn’t open 50 tabs at once, it’s snappy for Google Docs and Netflix. The battery life is the real winner here; I can easily get through a full day without reaching for the charger. The Abyss Blue finish also gives it a more premium look than your standard plastic laptop. Highly recommend it for students or anyone who just needs a reliable device for the basics!"

    I’m very happy with this Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook. The 14" Full HD display is clear and bright, making it great for everyday use, streaming, and browsing. Performance is smooth for daily tasks, and the MediaTek Kompanio processor handles Chrome OS efficiently. The laptop is lightweight, boots up quickly, and the battery life easily lasts through the day. I also appreciate the sleek Abyss Blue design—it looks modern and feels well-built. For the price, this Chromebook offers excellent value and is perfect for students, remote work, or casual use.

    I have no problem with Best Buy, or the item I purchased. My complaint is against using FedX when they have repeatedly been asked to leave packages on a side enclosed porch towards the back of our house. This package was left at a front door that has no protection from the elements.

    Great price, strong build, Disappointing Screen

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Ended up returning this. The model on dispay in the store was the touch screen with the IPS, but I was sold this model without the touch screen and the TN display. The colors were very washed out and Chrome OS does not offer any way to fix this. As a result, constant staring at the cool tone of this display caused some eye fatigue. At this price, it's probably better to pay for a better Chromebook. I returned this and probably won't buy another Chromebook unless the correct model is on display because a lot of these have cheap screens. This had a nice strong build, good speakers, nice color, and excellent keyboard. It just sucks that the part you'd be staring at the most hours was the worst part of the experience. It also was a little on the heavy side. We need more 13.2 in chromebooks.

      Hi MUYAHO-

      Thank you for sharing your experience with the IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook. We are sorry that the device did not meet your expectations. The IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook comes in two configurations, one of which uses the TN panel that does not support touchscreen, we understand how upsetting it is to receive the wrong product, we sincerely apologize for any confusion and disappointment that arose from your purchase. We strive to ensure excellent user experience with all our products and are sad to hear that we missed the mark, there are a few tips that we can offer regarding the cool tone of the display.

      Chromebooks have an integrated Night Light which allows users to adjust the color temperature of the display. To start, open the Settings app and select the “Device” tab on the left-hand menu, choose “Displays”, then select “Night Light”. From there you can adjust the display to your preference using the “Color temperature” slider.

      We hope you choose our products again in the future and please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have.

      Best wishes,
      Lenovo Lenovo
