About this deal

Meanwhile, wireless connections include 802.11ac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.2. There's no support for the latest Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) wireless standard. Neither are most this good-looking. Lenovo painted the metal finish with an almond color, which helps the Flex 3 stand out in a sea of plastic and occasional gray-aluminum chassis that typically make up the budget-laptop set. In all of these benchmarks, the Flex 3 came in significantly behind the more expensive and more powerful Acer, roughly equal with its non-Flex cousin, and comfortably ahead of the Chromebook Duet (which has an especially pokey Mediatek ARM processor).

The Flex 3's battery life is adequate. It lasted for a bit more than 10 hours in our video rundown test, which involves playing a locally stored video file with Wi-Fi turned off. That should get you through a day of occasional browsing, but it's on the low end for a modern Chromebook. A Slate of Strengths...and One Key Weakness The Chromebook features a Intel Celeron N4500 processor paired with 4GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 128GB of eMMC 5.1 storage. Right from switching on the Chromebook, you need to wait for a few seconds. Though as you will lift the lid the laptop gets automatically on but yes it does take a few seconds for the laptop to respond. However, the screen brightness is dim. Even while using the laptop indoors, there was a need to increase the brightness to suit my eyes. And same goes while using the Chromebook outdoors. Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 3 Chromebook 11IJL6: Performance Inside, the Flex 3 is available with just one set of computing components, and they’re pretty much exactly what we expect from a Chromebook at this price point. In addition to the 64GB of flash storage, they include an Intel Celeron N4020 processor with integrated UHD Graphics 600 and 4GB of system memory.

Lenovo’s 2-in-1 Chromebook isn’t slick, but it is excellent value

Lenovo supports the Flex 3 Chromebook with its standard one-year consumer-laptop warranty for parts and labor. Testing the Flex 3: Average Chromebook Performance The Flex 3's main strengths are its above-average build quality, attractive styling, and wallet-friendly price. With a generous range of ports, it should also appeal to people who plan to supplement their Chromebook's internal storage and perhaps connect an external keyboard and mouse. And a 360-degree hinge increases its versatility without adding extra bulk. Battery: These systems do not support batteries that are not genuine Lenovo-made or authorised. Systems will continue to boot, but may not charge unauthorised batteries. Lenovo has no responsibility for the performance or safety of unauthorised batteries, and provides no warranties for failures or damage arising out of their use. **Battery life is based on the MobileMark® 2014 methodology and is an estimated maximum. Actual battery life may vary based on many factors, including screen brightness, active applications, features, power management settings, battery age and conditioning, and other customer preferences. Alas, if you think that Lenovo has stumbled upon some hidden exception to the rules of physics and economics to fit such high-end features into a tiny enclosure at a palatable asking price, think again. The Flex 3's most significant compromise is its cramped, dim 11.6-inch HD display. Yes, you can touch it, but with a brightness of just 250 nits and a resolution below the 1080p (full HD) that we consider adequate for budget laptops, it's not all that pleasing a panel to look at.
