The Chromebook space is filling up quickly with very similar laptops, which isn’t really productive.

The most recent one from Lenovo, the IdeaPad Flex 3 comes with a 15.6-inch touchscreen display, a 360-degree hinge, and a decent set of features.

Today we are giving you a quick overview of the Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 3 Chromebook (15″, ILJ7).

Pricing of the Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 3 Chromebook (15″, ILJ7) is as of now unconfirmed, but if we had to guess, due to the hardware availability and features, it should cost around $300-400 USD.

Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 3 Chromebook (15″, ILJ7): Full Specs


Design

Since this device should be on the cheaper side, we have a plastic chassis with sharp edges and rounded corners. It looks really similar to the regular IdeaPad 3, with a grill above the keyboard that houses a stereo speaker setup. The keyboard has a full row of keys, including a NumPad. There are two colors, Arctic Grey and Abyss Blue. Also, the Lenovo badges have a reflecting effect, which looks like a rainbow, giving the laptop some character. In terms of weight and height, the notebook stands at 1.90 kg and 18.94 mm.


Display

There is a single display option, with a 15.6-inch diagonal and a Full HD resolution. It uses an IPS panel, with Multi-touch support, a max brightness of 300 nits, a contrast ratio of 800:1, and uses DC Dimming, which isn’t harmful to your eyesight.


Specifications and features

Hardware-wise, there are two CPUs to pick from with either the dual-core Celeron N4500 or the quad-core Pentium Silver N6000. Each of them brings enough power for ChromeOS. With up to 8GB of RAM, you can open plenty of Chrome tabs. The integrated graphics come with 32 cores for the Pentium and 16 cores for the Celeron.

The I/O consists of two USB Type-A 3.2 (Gen. 1) ports, a single USB Type-C 3.2 (Gen. 1) port, an HDMI 1.4b port, a MicroSD card reader, and a 3.5 mm audio jack. The HD Webcam comes with a privacy shutter.
