Reviews for the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 15ABR8
Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 (15, Gen 8) review – decent unpretentious budget daily driver
Source: Laptop Media
The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 (15″, Gen 8) is a good laptop for daily tasks or normal office usage if you pick a device with the optional IPS display (LEN156FHD (LEN9052)). It has wide viewing angles and a good contrast ratio of 1410:1. The panel is also PWM-free which is great. The sRGB coverage is low but that’s okay given the end price of the notebook. The build quality isn’t that good. Both lid and base can be flexed badly and you can spot a lot of bends even while typing. However, the notebook is thin and light for a 15-incher. It has a profile of 17.9 mm and the starting weight is 1.62 kg. The I/O is fine for such a device – three USB’s and an SD card reader. Sadly, all ports are rated at 5 Gbps. The memory is soldered and the maximum possible amount of 16GB DDR4-3200MHz RAM should be enough for most users, at least for now. Keep in mind that the RAM of the 8GB iterations works in single-channel mode.
