About this product
If you're after a Chromebook that's light enough to carry around without weighing you down, this Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 fits the bill. It's built without moving parts, which makes it solid and reliable for everyday use, and at 1.3kg it slips into a bag easily. The 14-inch Full HD screen gives you enough space to work comfortably, and the MediaTek Kompanio 520 processor with 8GB RAM handles browsing, streaming and web-based apps without any fuss. It runs Chrome OS, so you get quick boot times and straightforward updates.
Battery life is around 13.5 hours, so you can get through a full day without hunting for a plug. There's Wi-Fi 6 for faster, more stable connections, and Bluetooth for pairing wireless headphones or a mouse. You get a USB 3.2 port, a USB-C port that handles charging, file transfers, and monitor connection, a headphone jack, and a micro SD card reader for extra storage. Front-facing speakers are tuned by Waves Audio, and there's an FHD camera with a privacy shutter and mute key for video calls. Comes with the laptop, power adapter, and warranty document.

Lightweight, fast Chromebook with great battery life, easy setup, and good for basic tasks like emails, schoolwork, and streaming. Some users note screen and keyboard quirks but overall excellent value.

Simple to set up and use.
So easy to set up - it links to your phone and all the apps are automatically transferred. As a senior lady I didn't want anything to complicated ( I left that behind when I retired 😁) and don't play video games, so it's perfect for me. The touch screen on my phone isn't great for emails so the keyboard alongside the touchpad on the Chromebook is ideal. Highly recommend for anyone not too tech savvy.

Perfect
Sleek and light design and exactly what I needed - perfect for typing/writing, and catching up on my emails - can't recommend highly enough

Almost perfect
I bought this because I have an old Mac that is no longer compatible with some software.. Being dim I didn't realise it ran Google and not windows. It was a step too far for me.. but.. a great little laptop for an awesome price and I'm sure it would have done the job well.

Great laptop - display could be better
Having used this quite a bit over the last few weeks, I have to say I am impressed with it. It's fast (for what I need it for) and very responsive. The battery life is decent too, and having a USB-C charging port means that I don't need to have the OEM charger close to hand. It's light and the keyboard is responsive too. My only gripe is the display isn't great. It's ok and it works for me, but I do use a lot of highlighted text and at the normal viewing angle I can't even see the highlighted text if it's highlighted in green or yellow. I did add the warming filter and it helped a little. It's not a huge issue, but it is annoying at times.

Well made & quick operating system
Bought this Chromebook to replace an older HP windows laptop that had Been problematic from day one. This performs similarly to an apple product and seems a lot more stable. . It’s for someone who has MS so being lightweight it ideal. It’s slim & well built .

Hi Light,
Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 14in MediaTek 8GB 128GB Chromebook
The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 14in MediaTek 8GB 128GB is a standard Chromebook, not a Chromebook Plus model. The "Chromebook Plus" designation requires specific minimum hardware specifications that this particular configuration does not meet, primarily concerning the processor and storage type.
Key Distinctions
Processor: The model in question uses a MediaTek Kompanio 520 processor. Chromebook Plus models require a faster CPU, such as an Intel Core i3 (12th Gen or newer) or AMD Ryzen 3 (5000 series or newer).
Storage: This specific model comes with 128GB of eMMC storage. Chromebook Plus models require faster 128GB or more SSD (Solid State Drive) storage for enhanced performance.
Webcam: The MediaTek version typically features a standard webcam, whereas Chromebook Plus models are required to have a 1080p (FHD) or better webcam with Temporal Noise Reduction (TNR).
Display: While this model has a Full HD (1920x1080) display, the panel technology can be TN with 250 nits brightness (on some variants), which does not meet the Chromebook Plus requirement for an IPS display with 300 nits or more brightness.
Lenovo does offer other configurations in the IdeaPad Slim 3 line, specifically those with Intel Core i3 processors and SSD storage, which are explicitly branded as "Chromebook Plus" models.
