LenovoIdeaPad 3 14 Laptop, AMD Ryzen 5 5500U, 8GB RAM, 256GB Storage, 14.0" FHD Display, AMD Radeon 7 Graphics, Windows 10 Home, Abyss Blue

I was a little skeptical about this laptop considering the price, but I am amazed!Three things right out the gate: 1) It's listed as Abyss Blue but it's actually a silver/metallic color which I'm not angry about because it looks good. 2) It's listed as 14" but it's actually 15.6" which again I'm not angry about lol 3) It's stated as Windows 10 Home for the operating system but it comes with Windows 11 which this is my first time using the OS and I haven't run into any issues with it so once again I'm not angry!Now onto the rest: I read a review in which their laptop didn't have the correct graphics card in it. I can confirm mine does indeed have the 6 core, 12 thread AMD Ryzen 5 5500U. In fact, everything else is as stated in the description and it's wonderful! It is quick to start up and all programs so far run quickly. I haven't tried playing a newer game on it yet so that will be the biggest test for this laptop that I would be able to put it through. Otherwise, it operates the web and my usual desktop applications perfectly fine.The few negatives I have: 1) The sound is not the best as the speakers are inside the elbow where the screen meets the body. 2) Even though the keyboard has a full ten key pad, the enter key is small and I find my finger hitting the 4 key rather than the enter some times (just have to learn this keyboard better) 3) The battery life seems decent. I'm taxing this system more than I am my work laptop, but it still seems to drain slightly faster than I expect.Overall I'm very happy I got this laptop so far as it has exceeded my expectations at pretty much every turn.

Battery life is very good, good quality but not premium, fair for the price. I increased the memory ram, only can be changed one, the second is fixed to the motherboard.

Very reliable product

Excelente equipo para uso profesional.

I bought this a few years ago and it's been my daily for casual gaming and personal projects that ranged from sound recording to audio editing to some small scale videos (very small, so don't overvalue that comment).I bought this one because I wanted to start playing some games but didn't want to invest a lot to do so. It worked. I've been able to play a few (but wasn't able to play one that was too big (looking at you ForeverWinter).Probably should have gone with 16 GB ram, but this laptop has carried me for a while. Very glad to have had it. I did try adding in an extra 8 GB ram stick, but the stick was faulty and didn't allow it to turn on. From what I hear, that's normal, but I was too lazy to go through the process again.

great p cI just wish now that I would have gotten one with numbers on the right but I was looking for easy portable and I have it just spoiled with full size one but glad I have this one

died today. leave the lid close for an hour and when I opened to continue my work was turned off. cutomer support did not help at all. does not power on. 7 weeks of use and now I have to send it to lenovo and wait for them for a "repair?" wait for how long to recieve the same crapy laptop who maybe, if I am lucky enough will maybe last more than 2 months. Dio from cutomer support told me to follow the instructions of an email he send to me to continue help me with the return. he only wanted a positive score and that the problem was resolved. then he ask me to call lenovo myself. if there was a way to take back that feedbak I'll do it. DO NOT BUY IT!!!! you are going to regret it.

Overall it's fine for the price. However, there is one thing VERY annoying about it. It comes installed with this "smart key" bloatware which gets in the way of basic keyboard shortcuts. For instance, if you want to copy something using ctrl + insert, this smart key program pops up instead. Uninstalling it isn't enough. If you uninstall it and then try a keyboard shortcut it pops up the microsoft store page to reinstall. So I had to uninstall it, remove everything related to it in the registry, and remove all the drivers for it. Even all that didn't work. The fix which finally worked was going into BIOS and disabling "smart keys".It's very VERY annoying.For this reason alone I am docking it two stars. Completely unbelievable
