Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3i 15 G6 Laptop Review: Budget Gaming Laptop with Poor Display

1080p gaming. Lenovo's IdeaPad Gaming 3i 15 is a sixth generation affordable gaming notebook. Our review unit, priced at around $900, pairs an Intel Tiger Lake H35 processor with a 90 W GeForce RTX 3050 Ti - an ideal combination for FHD gaming.

Lenovo’s IdeaPad Gaming series is the affordable gateway to Lenovo’s gaming laptops with a focus on what is important, namely gaming performance, without any bells and whistles. The 6th generation IdeaPad Gaming 3i 15 is based on Intel's current Intel Tiger Lake, and it comes with a Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 Ti, 16 GB of RAM, a 512 GB PCIe SSD, and a 15-inch IPS FHD display. This exact model is currently not sold in the US. There is, however, an Intel Core i7-11370H-based device with 8 GB of RAM and a 256 GB SSD priced at $1,000.

Case – Playing Hard to Get (Into)

The IdeaPad Gaming 3’s case is made entirely of plastic, and its rough bottom cover is indicative of its low price. The overall design is utilitarian and discreet. There are no gaming-specific design elements, and the device is not recognizable as a gaming laptop. It even lacks any form of case lighting effects.

Both the top cover as well as the base unit feature a smooth finish susceptible to fingerprints and smudges. The base unit’s rigidity is decent, albeit the center of the keyboard can be depressed quite easily, and the entire unit creaked slightly when we attempted to warp it.

The hinge itself is adjusted fairly well overall with some minor teetering when adjusting the display (max. opening angle: 135°). The display lid is noticeably less rigid than the base, and the panel showed a very clear ripple effect with pressure applied to its backside.

All things considered the IdeaPad Gaming 3 is one of the more compact units among its competitors, although the differences were pretty minor. At slightly over 2 kg (4.41 lbs) it was also relatively lightweight. Keep in mind that the power supply increases the weight budget by more than 25 % (500 g/1.1 lbs).

Connectivity – IdeaPad Gaming Covers the Basics

All ports are located towards the middle on both sides. We found the location of the power port particularly unwieldy for left-handed gamers intending to use an external mouse. The supported protocols are once again indicative of its low price point. The device lacks Thunderbolt support and cannot be charge via its USB-C port, nor does the port carry a DisplayPort signal. A card reader is also nowhere to be found.

Communication

In terms of network connectivity, the IdeaPad Gaming 3 offers an ethernet port as well as a Wi-Fi modem. Lenovo did not skimp on this part and opted for an up-to-date Intel AX201 module with support for Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax, 160 MHz) and Bluetooth 5.1. Transfer rates when connected to our Netgear Nighthawk AX12 reference router were very good, and we did not encounter any connectivity issues during our review period.

Webcam

Above the display we find a standard 720p webcam producing the expected results. In other words: its image quality is poor even in decent lighting. At least the camera offers a physical privacy shutter.

Maintenance

In theory, you can take off the entire bottom panel in order to gain access to the IdeaPad Gaming 3’s internal components. And while the Philips screws holding the cover in place can be easily undone we found the bottom cover it impossible to remove without damaging the base unit either visually or physically. Considering that our review unit was a shop unit we decided to call it a day.

Input Devices – IdeaPad Gaming with Backlit Keyboard

Keyboard

The IdeaPad Gaming 3 comes with a full-sized keyboard with numpad, although the latter is comparatively narrow. Unlike other IdeaPads this keyboard comes with increased travel (1.5 mm) rendering typing very comfortable and pleasing. Even when compared to more expensive Legion Gaming notebooks our review unit fared very well, and we had no issues typing long texts. Gamers will benefit from the large offset cursor keys. The device lacks an RGB backlight and comes with a two-stage white backlight instead. With that said an optional 4-zone RGB backlight is also available.

Touchpad

The clickpad is shifted to the left and centered underneath the space bar. With 12 x 7.5 cm (4.72 x 2.95 inches) it is sufficiently large, and thanks to its smooth surface usability and cursor control was a breeze. At the bottom we found the integrated buttons which produced a loud and very noticeable clicking noise when pressed. The pad supports Microsoft’s Precision Standard and thus gestures with up to four fingers.

Display – Matte IPS Panel

A total of three different 1080p panels are available for the IdeaPad Gaming 3, all of which are matte and based on IPS technology: the standard 60 Hz display (250 nits) that our review unit was equipped with, a 120 Hz panel (250 nits), and a 165 Hz panel (300 nits) with full sRGB coverage.

In our tests, the standard display peaked at above Lenovo’s brightness rating and managed a good 300 nits. Nevertheless, subjectively it is okay at best and most certainly the IdeaPad Gaming 3’s most glaring downside. Display contents are somewhat grainy, courtesy of the matte display coating, and colors are not particularly beefy either. We found no evidence of PWM flickering but on the flipside rather lethargic response times. If at all doable we would strongly suggest opting for the optional 165 Hz panel. Keep in mind that not all display options are available in all regions.

When analyzed using the professional CalMAN software (X-Rite i1 Pro 2) the low price of the IPS panel really showed. While its grayscale did not suffer from any form of noticeable color tint we found colors to be extremely inaccurate. We were able to improve upon grayscale through calibration, and as always you can find the resulting ICC profile for download above. Keep in mind that our calibration resulted in a slight decrease in overall brightness, and that we were unable to improve upon the display panel’s color accuracy at all. The display is simply incapable of better colors as can be witnessed by its relatively poor sRGB color space coverage of just 60 %. The display is thus not suitable for any form of photo editing.

Display Response Times

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.
       Response Time Black to White
35.2 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 18.8 ms rise
↘ 16.4 ms fall
The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 92 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (22 ms).
       Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
46.4 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 21.2 ms rise
↘ 25.2 ms fall
The screen shows slow response rates in our tests and will be unsatisfactory for gamers.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.25 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 77 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (34.6 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 54 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 18998 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Thanks to its matte display coating the IdeaPad Gaming 3 can be used outdoors as long as it is not too bright. As is typical for IPS panels its viewing angles were very wide.

Performance – IdeaPad with Tiger Lake and RTX 3000

Test Conditions

Lenovo’s preloaded Vantage software comes with three power profiles: Silent, Auto, and Performance. In both Silent and Auto the GPU is limited to 60 W while Performance unlocks the full 90 W. Accordingly, we ran all our benchmarks with this profile selected. Keep in mind that Performance mode is not available on battery, which means that our battery tests were run in the Auto profile.

Processor

The Intel Tiger Lake H35 processor is an old friend. It is a slightly faster version of its Tiger Lake U siblings with four cores and a built-in Iris Xe GPU. Our review unit’s Core i5-11300H is rated at 42 W, and it thus performed very consistently even under long-lasting sustained load.

Lenovo Legion 5 15ACH-82JU00C6GE-FL AMD Ryzen 7 5800H: Ø2123 (2107.59-2141.44)

Our benchmarks indicate that while the Core i5-11300H may be able to keep up with its competitors in single-core performance it is completely destroyed in multi-core scenarios. The H35 Tiger Lake’s biggest benefit, the Iris Xe GPU, is of no use in a laptop with dedicated GPU, and we would have preferred a different Tiger Lake CPU, such as for example the 6-core Core i5-11400H. As subsequent tests showed the device suffers immensely from its poor CPU performance, for example when it comes to gaming. Alternatively, the IdeaPad Gaming 3 is also available with an AMD Ryzen 5 5600H with a much higher multi-core performance.

On battery, the CPU is limited to just 25 W after a short while. Accordingly, it performs even worse in multi-core load situations. Additional CPU benchmarks can be found in our technology section.

System Performance

Subjectively, the device performed very well and responded instantaneously to input. In contrast, it often performed rather poorly in benchmarks and only managed to secure one of the spots at the far end of the list. This poor performance is partly due the fact that the CPU features no more than four cores and partly because our review unit was equipped with just a single DDR4-3200 RAM module running in single-channel mode.

Storage Devices

Inside the IdeaPad Gaming 3 we find an M.2-2280 SSD made by Micron connected to a PCIe 3.0 x4 interface. It performed fast enough for everyday use but not particularly fast when compared to its competitors. After first boot we found a total of 424 GB of free space on the 512 GB SSD, and the device also features a secondary 2.5-inch slot. Note: all SKUs sold in the United States feature a 1 TB hard drive paired with a 256 GB SSD by default. Additional SSD benchmarks can be found here.
