Lenovo releases new 15-inch laptop internationally with 165 Hz OLED display and Intel Wildcat Lake
Lenovo has finally given one of its latest 15-inch laptops a broader release. Spotted in May on PSREF, the IdeaPad Slim 3 15IWC11 was also joined by 14-inch, 16-inch and 17-inch siblings featuring the same Intel Wildcat Lake silicon. Incidentally, Lenovo's 15-inch option is the only one of the four that we have reviewed to date.
For the time being, Lenovo has not officially released the IdeaPad Slim 3 15IWC11 in North America. Instead, it continues to refer to the device as 'coming soon' on both its Canadian and US websites. In the meantime, Lenovo is selling the similar IdeaPad Slim 3 15IPH11 (curr. $1,201 on Amazon) with a choice of Intel Panther Lake processors. Please see our corresponding article for more details about this variant.
As for the IdeaPad Slim 3 15IWC11, pricing starts at £709.99 in the UK and at €839-€879 in the Eurozone. In comparison, the laptop has reached Australia, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Singapore for AUD 1,518, HKD 5,602, MYR 2,971 and SGD 1,066 (~$845), respectively. Typically, Lenovo includes a Core 3 304 processor, as well as 8 GB of DDR5-5600 RAM, a 256 GB SSD, a 50 Wh battery and a 1200p IPS display with 400 nits peak brightness, a 60 Hz refresh rate and 45% NTSC colour space coverage.
