80% Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i Chromebook 14 (8th gen) review: A compact Chromebook that’s fantastic value
Source: Expert Reviews English
There’s much to like about Lenovo’s compact Chromebook. It’s easy to manage and solidly built, with fast wireless connectivity and a significantly brighter and more colourful screen than you’re going to find on most Chromebooks at this price. The Intel Core i3-N305 isn’t as speedy as a more conventional Core i3, but give it 8GB of RAM to work with and it’s not going to slow you down in everyday work. What’s more, it has stamina to spare. Were it not for the slightly chunky design, the less than stellar keyboard and the lack of extra USB-C ports, I’d pitch it as one of the best cost-conscious Chromebooks you can buy. As is, it’s still fantastic value, provided you can live with some minor issues here and there.

60% Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 Review: A powerful device, but not where it counts
Source: Android Headlines English
Reviews like these are tough to sum up. For the price of $319, you’re getting a computer with a pretty decent display, nice webcam, great battery life, pleasant keyboard, and nice speakers. It’s a nice computer in those respects with some aspects punching above the price tag. However, features like those mentioned above don’t mean much if the performance is bad. It doesn’t matter if the speakers are nice if navigating to the music player is a pain each time. Those features do well to enhance an already strong performance; they don’t make up for poor performance, however. I understand that the MediaTek processor is a more cost-effective offering and it lent to the battery performance, but the software experience was plagued from the start. I think that the performance of a brand-new computer shouldn’t be this bad, no matter how affordable it is. When you part with money for a new computer, no matter how economical it is, you’re still paying for a device that performs specific tasks. If it shows that it can’t perform those tasks, then what’s the point?

70% Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook review: Surprising in more ways than one
Source: Android Central English
Over the past couple of years, we've seen a lot of different changes come to the Chromebook market. With the Slim 3 Chromebook, Lenovo threw all of those to the side and just released a no-nonsense option that has a few hidden tricks. Instead of worrying about RGB or displays with fast refresh rates, the Slim 3 Chromebook is one of those devices that "just works."

77% Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook review: Affordable and long-lasting
Source: PC World English
The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 is a perfectly serviceable Chromebook. Although it’s not the most innovative laptop I’ve ever worked with, it’s still a good value buy, especially if you’re a student or young professional. It has enough power for light use and the battery will keep you going long after your workday ends. The inclusion of a 1080p touch display is a nice feature to have on a sub-$400 laptop. Performance could be a touch snappier, but that’s just my own personal nitpick. You’ll need to taper your expectations some, especially as this machine has only 4GB of RAM. If you need an inexpensive everyday machine, then the IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook is worth your hard-earned cash.

The Lenovo IdeaPad Chromebook Slim 3 is a marvel of affordability [VIDEO]
Source: Chrome Unboxed English
Of course, with a budget Chromebook, some limitations are inevitable. The Slim 3 only comes with 4GB of RAM, and while the Kompanio 520 chip is a step up from its predecessor (the Kompanio 500 found in the original Chromebook Duet), you’ll start noticing lags if you’re pushing it too hard. If you keep your tasks limited and try to stick to one or two things at a time, it offers a nice, smooth experience. The big benefit is battery life, which looks to easily pace at the 13-hour mark Lenovo touts for this device. These types of caveats are fine in a $319 Chromebook, they are not even worrisome on a device that continues to be on sale for $169. At that sort of price, the Slim 3 is an absolute steal. If by the time you are reading this post you see it elevated back to the full MSRP and you are ready to get one, I’d tell you to hold off if possible: the track record on this one makes me think it will be on sale a lot.

Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 (16″, 2023) review – affordable and super efficient
Source: Laptop Media English
The large affordable notebooks are still best sellers on the market. Although they don’t offer the cutting edge of technology, they can provide everything you will ever need for your daily computer needs. This is why the IdeaPad Slim 3 (16″, 2023) is such a good product. We are really impressed by its port selection. It includes only fast USBs and the USB Type-C port even offers Power Delivery and DisplayPort output functionality. The SD card reader is only here to sweeten the deal. Yes, there are some features that we don’t like. For example, the memory is soldered to the motherboard. On top of that, if you opt for 8GB, you will get it in single-channel mode, which will cripple the graphics performance. Speaking of which, even the Ryzen 3 7330U has enough power to get you through any load you throw at it.

Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 (14 AMD, Gen 8) review – good budget daily driver with some downsides
Source: Laptop Media English
Alright, folks, it looks like the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 (14″ AMD, Gen 8) is a fair deal. Sure, its cooling isn’t the best of the best but that’s expected for the class. The plastic chassis is flexible but again, this is normal for an inexpensive 14-incher. On the other hand, the laptop is light and compact, so the portability is good. Let’s get back to the cooling once again – it has just one fan and one heat pipe, the fan is noisy when the CPU is under long heavy loads (and the temperatures are going above and beyond the 80°C mark), but the processor’s performance is definitely there. The chip can maintain close frequencies to the other two laptops with the same CPU that we have tested so far. In terms of raw power, the laptop is doing a fine job.

74% Lenovo Ideapad Slim 3i (2023) Review: A Good Buy?
Source: Gadgetbyte Nepal English
All in all, the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i is a pretty powerful device but fails to make a definite mark. It has a powerful chipset that can handle heavy loads but is held back by its UHD graphics. On the other hand, that same powerful chipset limits its battery life which is a very important resource for a general user. Therefore, this product is in this weird limbo state where it is neither powerful enough for heavy users nor efficient enough for ultrabook enthusiasts. That being said, the powerful processor is a good bet for future-proofing your machine. So, if you want a long-lasting laptop that won’t slow down any time soon, this might be a good choice. In conclusion, the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i ticks a lot of the boxes for a value-for-money budget notebook. With a powerful processor and a decent build quality, it is a recommendation for those seeking for a long-term companion.

In this review, we will be taking a look at the current cheapest new laptop on the market. A Full-HD display, 8-core CPU as well as a slim and appealing case all sounds rather alluring. However, its ChromeOS, 4 GB RAM and 64 GB eMMC storage, as stated in the laptop's specs, may well unveil how costs have been cut.

80% Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i review: chic but cheap
Source: Techradar English
I suggest grabbing the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i when there's a sale, as it’s quite reasonably priced and comes with a decent amount of power for the cost. There are a few premium features like a touchscreen, privacy shutter and fingerprint reader. Of course, being a budget computer, there are some compromises like mediocre sound quality and weak color coverage.

The Appeal Of This Modest And Utilitarian Lenovo Ideapad Laptop Hinges On Its Price
Source: USA Today English
The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 15 is an effective, utilitarian machine, and there’s plenty to get out of it in that respect. It has enough pep to coast through light, everyday computing tasks. It’s a pleasure to type on and is easy on the eyes thanks to a bright, anti-glare screen. But it doesn’t have much performance headroom, and it won’t be up to the task for more demanding applications. So don’t consider this machine if you’re looking for an affordable workstation. And, even though the display gets plenty bright, it produces drab and dull colors. Even a bump to 100% sRGB color coverage would benefit it dramatically. Last year’s Asus ZenBook 14 OLED showed just what a lower-cost laptop display could look like. By contrast, Lenovo’s machine is a slab of somewhat cheap-feeling plastic. Its battery life could also be better. At $660, it’s just $100 shy of a frequently discounted Apple MacBook Air M1, which is a battery-life behemoth and has the edge on portability and build quality.

Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 (15, Gen 8) review – decent unpretentious budget daily driver
Source: Laptop Media English
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.

90% Lenovo Slim 3i Chromebook Plus Review: my favorite of the bunch [VIDEO]
Source: Chrome Unboxed English
So you can see pretty quickly why this device is so likeable. It does nothing to get in its own way. I love the chassis, build quality, screen and keyboard. The trackpad is good (not great), the internals are all I really need, and even the speakers are pretty good. Unless you need a convertible or would rather get a 16:10 screen, there’s nothing this Chromebook misses on. And you feel that each time you pick it up. We made a video before Chromebook Plus was launched and wondered if the non-Chromebook Plus-branded version of this device was a sign of things to come. Of course, we were right in saying this model would get a branded Chromebook Plus sibling, but I didn’t realize at the time just how right the Slim 3i got the whole Chromebook Plus equation. If you are looking for a Plus model that isn’t just good, but seriously great, this is the one you want.

Source: It Pro English
The IdeaPad Slim 3i Chromebook 14 is going to make a lot of sense for some cost-conscious buyers. It's small, light, and very portable, and the screen, wireless connectivity, audio, and battery life are all way beyond most Chromebooks you will find for this kind of money. The ergonomics aren't top-notch, but not in any way that seriously hampers usability, and performance will be good enough for most practical scenarios. If you're looking for a primary device for a small business or specific user, then you might want something with a bigger screen, a better keyboard, and more horsepower on tap – something like the Acer Chromebook Plus 515, the Chromebook Vibe CX3401 Flex or if budgets permit, the Acer Chromebook Spin 714, but as a secondary device for use while out and about, the IdeaPad Slim 3i Chromebook 14 offers plenty of value.

14.00:

14 inch display size represents a middle ground between the small subnotebook formats and the screens of the standard 15 inch laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, provides good resolutions with usable detail sizes, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact. 

In the past, 14-inch devices were very rare, but now they are the standard for laptops after the 15-inchers. 

16.00:

This range for display formats was and is a rarity. It is larger than the general standard of 15 inches, but not yet in the range of large workstations. One usually has higher screen resolutions available, but portability suffers from that.

76.25%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
