Ryzen 3 outperforming Core i3: Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15ALC6 laptop review

Great performance per dollar. The IdeaPad 3 15 is a budget system that doesn't skimp on performance even when compared to a Core i7 in certain conditions. Though it feels fast for the price, the limited color space of the display and lack of some USB-C features can be disappointing.

Allen Ngo 👁, 12/14/2021 🇳🇱 🇫🇷 ...

The IdeaPad 3 family is home to bottom-of-the-barrel laptop models that are beneath the already inexpensive IdeaPad 5 and IdeaPad 7 families. If you're on a very tight budget, then the low starting prices of an IdeaPad 3 may seem attractive.

Our test unit comes with the quad-core Ryzen 3 5300U Zen 2 CPU, 8 GB RAM, 1080p IPS display, and 512 GB PCIe3 NVMe SSD for approximately $539 USD retail or even less when on sale. Higher-end SKUs may be available with the Ryzen 5 5500U or Ryzen 7 5700U and with more RAM or storage. Competitors to the IdeaPad 3 include other inexpensive consumer laptops like the HP Pavilion 15, Asus VivoBook F series, Dell Inspiron series, or the Acer Aspire 3 series.

Case — Cheap Looks

The keyboard deck and outer lid utilize brushed aluminum for improved aesthetics. However, the chassis exhibits both flexing and slight but audible creaking as well. Overall rigidity is slightly worse than the competing HP Pavilion 15 or Asus VivoBook 15 models.

Chassis size and dimensions are nearly identical to both the Pavilion 15 and VivoBook 15 meaning users won't be getting any weight or travel benefits by choosing the Lenovo. The Inspiron 3501 is notably larger and heavier than all three.

A black color option is also available instead of our drab tan color

Lid opened to maximum angle (~175 degrees). Hinge rigidity is uniform with minor-moderate teetering when adjusting angles

Bottom plate is matte roughened plastic to contrast the smoother and shinier brushed aluminum keyboard deck and outer lid

Connectivity — Neutered USB-C Port

Port options and positioning are both different than what you'll find on other IdeaPad laptops like the IdeaPad S340, IdeaPad 3 14, IdeaPad S540, or the IdeaPad 5 15. Perhaps the most important thing to keep in mind is that the single USB-C port does not support Power Delivery or DisplayPort unlike the USB-C ports on most Intel laptops. Video output must be done via HDMI instead.

It's worth mentioning that we experienced power issues when attempting to connect our PNY Pro Elite external SSD to the USB-C port. We are unsure if this is specific to our unit or a more widespread problem.

SD Card Reader

The integrated SD card reader is slow. Transferring 1 GB of images from our UHS-II test card to desktop takes about 36 seconds compared to about half that on the Pavilion 15. The card reader is not spring-loaded either and so fully inserted cards will still protrude for potentially unsafe handling.

Maintenance — Easy to Open

The bottom panel can be easily removed with just a Philips screwdriver whereas many other budget laptops are typically more difficult to service. Users will see just one M.2 PCIe3 x4 2280 slot for storage, one WLAN slot, and one SODIMM slot to supplement the soldered 4 GB of RAM.

Accessories and Warranty

There are no extras in the box other than the AC adapter and paperwork. The usual one-year limited manufacturer warranty applies.

Input Devices — Spongy Clickpad

Keyboard

The backlit keys have short travel with relatively weak feedback when pressed especially when compared to the keys on a pricier ThinkPad or HP Spectre laptop. Key clatter is quieter than expected as a result of the soft feedback.

Touchpad

The clickpad is slightly smaller than the one on the 14-inch IdeaPad 5 Pro 14 (10 x 7 cm vs. 10.5 x 7 cm). Gliding is smooth at medium or higher speeds while the finger tends to stick at slower speeds for more accurate clicking. Unfortunately, clicking on the clickpad feels shallow and spongy with unsatisfying feedback.

Key layout and feedback are similar to the IdeaPad 5 series

Clickpad works great for basic cursor control, but clicking feels weak and spongy

All keys and symbols are illuminated when the backlight is on

The numpad keys are shorter and thus more cramped than the main QWERTY keys

Display — FreeSync and Touchscreen Support

The BOE CQ NV156FHM-T07 IPS panel can be found on no other laptop in our database. While its high contrast ratio of 1400:1 and reasonable black-white response times deserve praise, its colors are mediocre at best and nowhere near as vibrant as the displays on a Yoga model.

Perhaps the most noteworthy aspect of the display is that it's also a touchscreen with FreeSync support which is almost unheard of for a sub $500 laptop. Such features will likely only appeal to a very small subset of the target audience.

Subpixel layout is slightly grainy due to the matte overlay

* ... smaller is better

Color space is narrow at just 58 percent of sRGB compared to 90 percent or greater on pricier midrange or higher Ultrabooks.

The display is not well-calibrated out of the box as to be expected on most budget laptops. Color temperature, for example, is too warm. Calibrating the panel ourselves with an X-Rite colorimeter would improve average DeltaE values significantly as shown by our results below. Nonetheless, colors are still inaccurate at high saturation levels due to the limited color space mentioned above with Blue being the most notable offender.

Display Response Times

ℹ

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
28.4 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 17.2 ms rise
28.4 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 11.2 ms fall
The screen shows relatively slow response rates in our tests and may be too slow for gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.8 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 67 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is worse than the average of all tested devices (23.4 ms).
↔ Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
24.8 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 10.8 ms rise
24.8 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 14 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.692 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 22 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (37 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

ℹ

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: 52 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 21941 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Outdoor visibility is decent when under shade due to the reasonably bright 300 nit display. Just be sure to disable AMD Vari-Bright which is enabled by default through the AMD software or else maximum brightness will automatically lower when running on battery power.

Wide IPS viewing angles. Colors and contrast degrade from extreme angles

Performance

Testing Conditions

Our unit was set to Extreme Performance mode via the pre-installed Lenovo Vantage software for the highest possible benchmark scores. We recommend users become familiar with both Vantage and the AMD Radeon software as many key system features and updates are toggled here.

Processor — Fast for a Ryzen 3

Raw CPU performance is excellent when considering that the Ryzen 3 is positioned as a Core i3 alternative. Its most striking advantage lies in its multi-thread performance which can be up to 70 to 80 percent faster than the competing Core i3-1115G4 since the Ryzen 3 5300U processor has double the physical cores. Raw multi-thread performance is actually comparable to the Core i7-1165G7 while single-thread performance is only about 25 percent slower.

Performance sustainability is excellent with no major throttling issues when running CineBench R15 xT in a continuous loop.

Storage Devices — Just One M.2 2280 PCIe3 x4 Slot

The 512 GB Samsung PM991a is an upper midrange PCIe3 x4 NVMe SSD with theoretical sequential read and write rates of 3100 MB/s and 1800 MB/s, respectively, according to Samsung's official specifications. However, the drive in our Lenovo is a bit slower with real-world read and write rates only approaching 2700 MB/s and 1600 MB/s, respectively. Performance appears to slow if stressed for long periods as shown by our DiskSpd Read Loop test below likely due to thermal reasons.

Only one internal storage bay available. Note that the system can support up to an M.2 2280 NVMe SSD even though our drive is the shorter 2242 version
