      Hey Thien,


      We're sorry to hear that you ran into trouble with your Chromebook. To try to resolve this, try doing a hardware reset (visit the following link to learn how to do so: https://support.google.com/chromebook/answer/3227606?hl=en&sjid=11168473644130281663-NA), which reboots the embedded controller that manages various system components.
      If this doesn't resolve your issue, you may need to factory reset your Chromebook, which you can learn more about towards the bottom of the webpage tied to the previously embedded link.

      Please update us when possible, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us. Lenovo

    I’ve been using this Chromebook for a few weeks now and I’m honestly impressed for the price. The screen is bright and clear, and the touchscreen works smoothly. It’s lightweight and easy to carry around. Performance has been solid for what I need, no lag with normal tasks, and it boots up fast. Battery life has also been really good; I can go most of the day without needing to charge it. The keyboard is comfortable enough for typing, and the trackpad is responsive. Overall, this is a great option if you’re looking for an affordable, reliable Chromebook for school, work, or casual use. It does exactly what it’s supposed to do without any fuss.

    A Shockingly Good Laptop for the Price

    I picked this laptop up expecting “good enough,” and it ended up being one of the easiest tech wins I’ve had in a while. From the first boot, it ran smoothly without any of the lag you usually get on budget-friendly machines. I’ve used it daily for lesson planning, grading, streaming, and managing way too many browser tabs at once, and it handled everything without choking. The screen is brighter than I expected, and the colors look clean instead of washed out. The keyboard feels comfortable for long typing sessions, and the trackpad responds the way it should — no weird delays or mis-clicks. Battery life surprised me the most. I can get through most of my day without scrambling for a charger, which is rare for me since I’m constantly moving around. Setup was quick, updates didn’t take forever, and the overall build looks nicer in person than it does in the photos. It’s lightweight enough to toss in a bag without feeling like I’m carrying a brick. If you need something dependable for everyday work, travel, school, or streaming, this thing punches above its price. I’m genuinely glad I went with it.

    I recently picked up this laptop and overall I’ve been pretty happy with it. It’s lightweight and easy to carry around, which is perfect for traveling and everyday use. The screen is bright and clear, and the keyboard actually feels comfortable to type on — not too mushy like some budget laptops. Performance-wise, it handles everyday tasks like internet browsing, emails, streaming, and light work with no problem. If you’re planning to run heavy games or big editing software, this probably isn’t the powerhouse for that. But for normal daily use, it’s fast enough and gets the job done. Battery life has been decent too. I usually get a good few hours on one charge depending on what I’m doing. It also stays pretty quiet and doesn’t overheat like some laptops I’ve owned before. Overall, it’s a solid laptop for the price — reliable, simple, and easy to use. Great for school, work-from-home, or just staying connected.

    I purchased this Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook (14" Full HD Touchscreen, MediaTek Kompanio 520, 4GB RAM, 64GB eMMC in Abyss Blue) from Best Buy during a sale, and it's been a game-changer for my daily needs. As someone who mainly uses a laptop for web browsing, email, Google Docs, YouTube streaming, and light multitasking, this has exceeded my expectations for the price. First off, the build and design are impressive. The Abyss Blue color looks sleek and modern not your typical boring black or silver. It's lightweight (under 3 pounds) and slim, making it super portable for carrying around the house or to a coffee shop. The 14-inch Full HD touchscreen is bright, sharp, and responsive colors pop nicely, and it's great for scrolling or tapping through apps. Performance-wise, the MediaTek Kompanio 520 processor handles everything I throw at it smoothly. Chrome OS boots up in seconds, and I've had no issues running multiple tabs, Android apps, or even some light photo editing. The 4GB RAM is sufficient for basic tasks, and it stays snappy without lag. But the standout feature is the battery life – easily 13+ hours on a charge! I can go a full day (or more) without plugging in, which is perfect for on-the-go use. The keyboard is comfortable for typing, speakers are decent for media, and the webcam has a privacy shutter, which is a nice touch. Storage is 64GB eMMC, which is limited, but Chrome OS relies heavily on cloud storage, and there's a microSD slot for expansion if needed. Overall, purchasing from Best Buy was seamless quick pickup and great customer service. If you're looking for an affordable, reliable Chromebook for school, work basics, or casual use, this is a solid 5-star choice. Highly recommend!

    Great Chromebook with touch screen you will will get your moneys worth with this one. Fast, small but not too small. Solid and sturdy. With a memory card that helps it stay somewhat quick but prone to lag depending on memory you add to the device. Other then that a back lit keyboard would make this a must buy . can lag at times depending on the amount of memory Love how easy it pairs with my other devices. Lightweight of my favorite purchases as the last one just needed a new battery as I have never had any problemswith this brand what so ever

    I purchased my Lenovo laptop on August 15, 2025, and after using it for about a month, I can confidently say it deserves a 5-star rating. One of my favorite features is the touchscreen, which makes navigation really intuitive and adds a level of convenience, especially for quick tasks and presentations. I also love how small and easy to manage it is—it’s light, portable, and perfect for carrying around for work or travel. Honestly, I don’t have any major complaints about this laptop so far. It performs smoothly, and I haven’t run into any issues that would make me reconsider my choice.

    Got this for my kid for school. The build quality is good and he's happy with the performance. He's been using the school's Chromebooks for a couple of years now and he's happy with his own now. It can handle some light web gaming just fine. Can do HDMI with a USB-C to HDMI adapter, however you will lose the ability to charge at the same time, but battery life is quite good! Wi-fi is acceptable but not great. I'm used to Macbook Pros and i7 Gaming Laptops and the Wifi in this Chromebook isn't nearly as good, unfortunately, but that's understandable in a machine of this class. The speakers are above average sounding better than my gaming laptop, but not as good as my work Macbook pro. My kid really liked the color since it wasn't your typical black or silver/gray. I was skeptical of the MediaTek chip, but it seems to be doing just fine. For the price, this seems like a great machine so far and has a great AUE date out to June 2032 so there is plenty of life in this machine. I wish it had 8 GB of RAM, but again for the price point, 4GB seems pretty standard and sufficient.

    I gifted this Chromebook to my 10-year-old daughter, and it has exceeded my expectations. It’s the perfect device for her age group—lightweight, easy to use, and packed with features that make it both fun and educational. The touchscreen is a standout feature. My daughter loves the responsive display for navigating apps, playing educational games, and even doodling. It’s so intuitive that she had it figured out within minutes of unboxing. The performance is impressive for a Chromebook at this price point. The apps load quickly, and it handles her schoolwork (like Google Docs and Slides) and entertainment (streaming videos and music) without any lag. The battery life is fantastic, lasting her through the day without needing a recharge. It’s one less thing for me to worry about. I also appreciate how durable and compact it is. She can easily carry it from her desk to the living room, and I feel confident it can withstand the daily handling of a 10-year-old. Overall, the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook is a perfect starter laptop for kids. It’s affordable, reliable, and user-friendly. Watching her light up while using it made it worth every penny. I highly recommend it to other parents looking for a kid-friendly laptop!

    Loving my new Lenovo Slim 3! The build quality on this device is superb with a nice solid feel. Thin and light and easy to carry around. Great audio quality and camera for video conferencing - the camera privacy shutter is really nice too. Keyboard feel is just right. Nice and bright FHD display. Reliable and fast WiFi. The power efficient MediaTek Kompanio 520 processor delivers amazing 13+ hours of battery life so I don’t have to stress when working in coffee shops etc., where AC outlets can be hard to find. The processor is zippy and allowed me to work with plenty of tabs including Google Photos, YouTube, Google Keep, Microsoft Word etc., without any issues switching between apps. Definitely deserves 5 stars and highly recommended for anyone looking for a Chromebook for productivity, entertainment and more!

    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.
