Lenovo IdeaPad 3 (14-inch) Review | Trusted Reviews

 

The Lenovo IdeaPad 3 (14-inch) is one of the cheapest non-Chromebook laptops you can buy, but a poor screen lets down an otherwise excellent device

Good performance for the price;Deep keyboard;Tries to avoid the typical style-free zone of cheap laptops

Low-quality screen;No USB-C;Lacks "all day" battery life

Lenovo IdeaPad 3 review: performance on a budget

 

The Lenovo IdeaPad 3 is an affordable option to handle the basics, but that means its super affordable

Robust, durable build ; Comfortable typing experience ; Affordable price

Screen could be brighter ; Average battery life ; Low-powered components

While the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 has its weaknesses, but it has key strengths too – not least the low price that you can now pick the laptop up for. If you're primarily concerned with day-to-day computing tasks, affordability and durability, it definitely...

No USB Type-C port;All-plastic build with a fingerprint attracting material;Our unit had a pathetic 768p TN display (Innolux N140BGA-EA4);Poor color coverage, contrast ratio and viewing angles on the TN panel (Innolux N140BGA-EA4)

LENOVO IdeaPad 3 14" Laptop - AMD Ryzen 3, 128 GB SSD, Grey

 

This laptop is very light and seems to provide good performance. It was competitively priced compared to other, similarly specified laptops. The screen is clear & bright and the keyboard is acceptable. Although the storage is limited (128GB M.2 SSD),...

The space for the 2nd SSD and additional DRAM can only be accessed by separating the case, rather than by covers. Splitting the case is a bit fiddly, but is achievable using basic tools and a bit of confidence.
