Lenovo Ideapad 3 15.6" FHD Chromebook, Intel Celeron N4500, 4GB RAM, 224GB Storage (64GB SSD+160GB Docking Station Set), ‎Intel UHD Graphics, Full Size Keyboard, Chrome OS, Artic Gray

I have hestutated getting a Chromebook for a long while thinking it was too small. But when I received this it was exactly the same size as my laptop. Except without all the added garbage. It's fast and does everything I need it to!

Some pros: For the price, this laptop is great for internet browsing and if you have a google/gmail account, you can connect everything to it. I use google photos on my phone, so it was great to have the photos back up into the laptop with just a push of a button. There was also a promo that came with extra space on the google drive for 2 years when I bought this chromebook. The touchscreen works pretty well, although not as smooth as iPad/iphone level, but i was able to use Adobe Sketch and Whiteboard apps when I needed to "draw" for my class or studying. Battery life is pretty good. I ran YouTube videos (some on 1080p), charged my phone, and read on kindle at the same time (sometimes switching between different reading such as adobe pdf viewer apps) and the battery lasted a good solid 8 hours, so if you need a light laptop with a long battery life, this is a good option. Some cons: The memory SD slot - I didn't like how when you place the memory card in the slot, it sticks out, but I hardly use it anyways so it doesn't bother me too much. Another thing, some apps aren't compatible as they are on a windows/apple. Even if the apps are available on Google Play, some of them either didn't load at all or they would not work as smoothly as it would on a windows / apple. The good thing though is there's a lot of alternate programs, but if you are someone that needs a laptop for strictly a particular program/app that may only work on windows/apple, this might not be for you. Overall, for the price and quality, I think this is a great laptop. I use it for internet browsing and for my school work to read pdfs and for studying and I'm satisfied with the product.

Disclaimer: I'm normally a die-hard Mac person. But I'm also a middle school teacher. And if there are two things that do not go together, it's an expensive personal computer and over 100 twelve to fourteen year-old kids. So I decided now was as good a time as any to use some of my saved-up Amex points to get something that I wouldn't be *that* bothered by if the kids accidentally knocked it off a table or dropped something on it. I mean, they're middle-schoolers so they're not exactly known for their agility and grace. It's fairly no-frills. The box is cardboard. The instruction manual is a folded piece of paper. There's really not much to figure out with a Chromebook and I'd rather pay less for the machine than more for a glossy box and an instruction manual that kills paper and serves no purpose. Right out of the box it booted up nicely. I logged into my Google account and was instantly able to access my email, photos, etc. The touchscreen is nice because sometimes I'm just lazy and don't want to deal with using the trackpad. It was also super-easy to download apps from the Google Play store to use on the Chromebook. Plus, it has an HDMI slot on it so I can hook it up to the board in my classroom and project what I'm looking at to the kids. Is it a high-powered computer that suits the needs for graphics-intensive gaming or serious programs? Absolutely not. Is it worth the price for what you get - a cheap, lightweight Chromebook that's great for a teacher to use for lesson planning, grading (in sheets) and composing quick word documents to be emailed to students, parents, and administrators? Absolutely.

This is almost a perfect device. 2 flaws. The first flaw is in it's hinge ability -- going back and forth from laptop to tablet mode wears out the cable, making it so when you return to laptop mode, the keyboard doesn't engage unless you shut the cover completely, causing you to have to sign in again, which is a drag. Eventually, even closing the lid won't restart the keyboard connection, and in it goes for service. I've had mine in for service 3 times in 2 years for the same issue and it would have been 4 but I had only purchased the 2-yr warranty and they wanted $86 for one more year, so when it crapped out the final time (just over a month after the last servicing) I bought a new one instead with a 4-year plan for $76. I have resigned myself to having to spend $200 + warranty every four years to keep myself in a device that I adore. Before coming to this conclusion, I tried a HP 2-in-1 for a day but sent it right back due to poor screen quality and overall cheap feel. I'm glad I went to the trouble of trying something else because it made me appreciate how wonderful the Lenovo experience (screen, keyboard, overall feeling of solidness) really is, and I realized that I'd rather live with the hinge flaw than sacrifice the other quality features. I'll just keep it in laptop mode most of the time, and when I DO convert to tablet, I'll do so slowly and gently. And now for the second Lenovo Chromebook flaw: the lid develops little cracks on both side edges about an inch above the hinge edge. When I noticed the cracks, I realized that opening the lid causes it to 'bow' a bit putting too much pressure onto the lid down by the hinge side. It turned out that the Lenovo extended warranty does not cover this so my solution was to start using a snap-on plastic cover and the cracks did not worsen. Then, I ended up with a new lid after one of the device services and with the plastic cover the cracks did not reappear. So getting some kind of stiff cover is a must for this baby. My new Lenovo Chromebook is a Flex 3, which I cannot tell apart from my old C330. It just feels so good to have one back in my hands.

This lenovo chromebook started up v fast. And the touch screen is v sensitive as well. I think this touch screen function is essential for a chromebook. Been using it after 1st charge. Battery still at 70%, really impressed by it. But don't expect too much that the chromebook can play game and etc. It's for daily use type of laptop. Overall, I'm satisfied with my loot!:)

A very basic piece of electronics that can be only used for web-related stuff. I am using this laptop for the last couple of month and I am happy. This laptop can be used for day to day stuff over the web and watch movies.

This laptop is one of the best laptops in this price range AED 695.00 ive had so far, overall build quality is great the performance is also amazing despite its size. The touch display is also very responsive although it will be hard to use outdoor because of its glossy screen its still a very great display compare to windows apps response so fast loading and switching between apps that is the most thing which i like this. I Had a windows laptop which is worth AED 1800.00 But it too lagy and makes me mad this was worth for movies browsing & good security updates

A bang for the buck for Chromebook beginners!

unico difetto però forse non ho approfondito io è che la tastiera è americana pertanto ho dovuto acquistare delle mascherine adesive per riportarla all'italiana
