Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15.6 Laptop, AMD Ryzen 5 3500U 8GB Memory, 256GB SSD, Windows 10

When you hear the phrase "You get what you pay for" it normally has negative connotations, but in this case you get a well built, low budget, everyday PC with some gaming protentional, with just a few trade offs. My daughter asked for a laptop for her birthday, I had an older Alienware laptop I upgraded and gave to her brother to play Minecraft, and she understandably wanted something similar.This shipped super fast during snow and ice storms! Well done Fed Ex!The GoodThe laptop looks nice, feels solid, and is light weight. Upon starting it up I was ready to put an hour or two into cleaning out all the bloatware and loading up the essentials; I was pleasantly surprised to find only 2 programs that needed to be removed(Lenovo something or other, and Mcafee). Boot time is very fast, the wifi is acceptable at this price point, and the gaming performance actually took me off guard. Now its just Minecraft but with a few adjustments in the settings(to optimize) I was getting 90-140 FPS matching the older Alienware laptop which has a 3840qm and a 7970m dedicated graphics card. AMD's APU technology has really come a very long way!The MehhThe screen is lack luster. Although it does give a nice 1920x1080 resolution the color reproductions is not great, its not bad.. but the screen always feels a bit washed out, I did adjust the brightness and a few other settings and cleaned this up quite a bit. The touch pad is... get yourself a mouse.For those of you not Tech Savvy - No drivers were installed at all. Since this is AMD CPU/GPU combo its a very easy fix. You go to AMD's website download Adrenalin and it does all of the work for you, just install and follow the recommended driver installs. This made a HUGE difference in performance.

So far so good. I was on a hunt for the most laptop I could get for <$500. I’m pretty confident this is it. Yeah, it doesn’t have a touchscreen but the Ryzen 5 3600 processor is decent. It’s not the latest and greatest but it benchmarks well. I’m extremely happy with this computer’s performance. It’s perfect for working from home. It multitasks well, and the SSD drive makes loading almost instant.My biggest gripe is the display quality. It’s just fair. Not bad, not good. Honestly, until I set up a second monitor I didn’t notice. Side by side you can definitely tell the difference. Of course a little more ram and a bigger HD would be nice too but I definitely got what I paid for.I looked at laptops until I was seeing specs in my sleep. Don’t do this to yourself, just buy this thing. Unless you’re a serious gamer or you want to do heavy video editing, this thing should work just fine.

The product works, well, fast switching between screens. My greatest disappointment is the power cord. It is too short and the power block is clumsy and perhaps puts too much weight on the power outlet. For such a sophisticated machine the cord should have been longer and more user friendly.

Great budget laptop.

We really liked this laptop until the power button stopped working after just 3 weeks. Amazon did not have one available for replacement so I was directed to contact Lenovo. Their customer service is a nightmare to deal with. At one point I was transferred to a number where I was offered a deal on Roadside Assistance. After 3 unsuccessful calls, I finally had luck chatting with an online rep. It was determined to be a hardware issue and the only resolution offered was to send it in for repair. After just 3 weeks, this was unacceptable. I’m sending this laptop back to Amazon for a refund.

Great laptop for everyday use! Works with no issues and is very fast?

I have had this computer for about 2 months now and I don't have any complaints. This is my 4th Lenovo computer and it has the quality I have come to expect. I was surprised by how light it is. Also the little switch to cover the webcam and microphone is really handy.

Perfect for work laptop!

Compré 2 computadoras portátiles y tardé más de 3 semanas en entregarlas, y solo recibí 1. ¿Qué esperas que te diga? Muy triste.
