Basically, if you come from an Intel background, it delivers slightly better performance than the 8th generation Core i5 equivalent. What performance should I expect?Ī quick look at its key specs will reveal that under the hood we've got an AMD Ryzen 5 3500U CPU which is a good performing quad-core processor that clocks in at an impressive base speed of 2.1 GHz and can go all the way to 3.7 GHz when we demand more horsepower. Again, there's not much to say in this regard.įinally, given the current state of the world when it comes to privacy, we appreciate the Lenovo delivered a manual shutter for the webcam so that those who wish to cover it up don't have to resort to tape that, more often than not, leaves an ugly mark when removed. The trackpad, on the other hand, is quite ample and precise for everyday use.
When it comes to typing, the IdeaPad 3 comes with an ergonomic chiclet-style keyboard with decent travel distance to feel like you're actually typing onto a laptop and not onto a screen. The display (IPS), a 14-inch screen with narrow bezels on the side, comes with a Full HD resolution and is alright for the category of laptops we're working with.
The construction is solid but clearly plastic and you can hardly expect any other material considering its price. Limiting itself to a couple of Lenovo logos on the top cover and below the keyboard, the 81W0003QUS has a nice blue plastic body that doesn't indulge in any sort of visual effect we sometimes see on other mid-range laptops. Much like the rest of Lenovo's lineup, the IdeaPad 3 comes with a rather minimalist design that immediately calls out your eye. Today, we're looking forward to doing some deep investigative work as we get to work to figure out if this is the laptop you need - or want -in our r eview of the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 81W0003QUS. Priced well below the 500 dollar range at the time of writing this review (August 9th), Lenovo has really managed to introduce a balanced laptop that delivers an excellent price-to-specs ratio. Such is the case of Lenovo's latest bet to address that niche the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 81W0003QUS.
Some people are just searching for a laptop that delivers decent enough overall performance at a price that won't have you selling your organs on the black market.
While we've recently talked in depth about Lenovo's latest affordable convertible - the Lenovo Flex 5 81X20005US - not everyone is looking for a laptop that also doubles as a tablet.
