RTINGS

If you need or prefer a Windows laptop over a Chromebook, the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 (2021) might be the one for you. It's a simple-looking laptop that fits well in a professional business environment, and it feels well built, with a thin and light design that makes it easy to carry around. Its port selection is decent as it includes two USB-As, a full-size HDMI, and a USB-C port, although you can't use the latter for video output or to charge the laptop.

As for the user experience, it has a decently sharp 15.6 inch display that provides enough space for light multitasking and gets bright enough for use in most settings. The keyboard is reasonably spacious and includes a Numpad on the right side, but it feels a bit tiring to type on for extended periods as the keys require a fair amount of force to actuate. Its webcam's video quality is decent as it captures a good amount of fine details, though the microphone sounds quiet and slightly staticky.

Its AMD Ryzen CPU is more than capable of handling most productivity tasks like web browsing, text formatting, spreadsheets, and presentations. The battery lasts over nine hours of light productivity, so you can comfortably get through a typical workday on a full charge. Last but not least, it has a fingerprint sensor built into the power button so that you can log in quickly and get right to work. All in all, it's a well-rounded Windows laptop that's easy on the wallet.

Our pick for the best budget laptop is the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 (2021). This 15.6-inch Windows laptop is portable and sturdy and gives you enough battery life to get through an eight-hour workday. It's available with AMD Ryzen 5000-series CPUs, which are capable of handling most general productivity tasks. You get a 1080p display that gets bright enough for use in most indoor settings, a good webcam for video calls, and a decent port selection, including an HDMI port.

Unfortunately, while the keyboard feels reasonably spacious and provides good tactile feedback, it can be tiring to type on for long periods as the keys require a fair amount of force to actuate. As for the touchpad, it's just okay as it's small and doesn't always register some movements and taps. Some models have a fingerprint sensor built into the power button, so if it's something you care about, it's best to check before buying.

The best laptop for students we've tested in the budget category is the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 (2021). It's an ultraportable available with AMD Ryzen 5000-series CPUs, which are capable of handling most general productivity tasks like text formatting, web browsing, and video playback. It feels well-built despite its affordable price, and it's very portable, thanks to its thin and light design. The battery lasts long enough to get through a typical school day of light productivity. Unfortunately, you can't charge the laptop via its USB-C port, so you'll have to use the barrel plug power adapter.

The display is a 15.6-inch, 1080p panel. It looks reasonably sharp, gets bright enough for use in most indoor settings, and provides plenty of space for split-screen multitasking. We highly recommend getting the IPS panel over the TN because TN panels typically have worse color reproduction and viewing angles. The keyboard feels spacious and gives satisfying tactile feedback, though it can be tiring to type on for long periods because the keys require a fair amount of force to actuate. As for the touchpad, it's just okay; it's small but tracks reasonably well. Not all models have a fingerprint sensor built into the power button, so if it's something you want, it's best to check the specs before buying.

The best laptop under $500 we've tested is the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 (2021). It's a portable Windows laptop with good build quality and a battery that lasts over nine hours of light use. Its 15.6-inch screen gives you plenty of space for multitasking, gets bright enough for use in most settings, and is flicker-free, which helps reduce eye strain on long school or workdays. The keyboard is reasonably spacious and includes a Numpad on the right side, though it feels a bit tiring to type on for extended periods as the keys require a fair amount of force to actuate.

Its AMD Ryzen CPU is more than powerful enough to handle general productivity tasks like web browsing, video playback, text formatting, and spreadsheets. It has a decent port selection that includes two USB-As, a full-size HDMI, and a USB-C port, although you can't use the latter for video output or charge the laptop. It has a fingerprint sensor built into the power button, meaning you can log into Windows quickly.

The best budget laptop we've tested is the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 (2021), an ultraportable Windows laptop designed for general productivity tasks like text processing, web browsing, and video playback. It has a sturdy build, a thin and light design, and a battery that lasts around nine hours of light use. You can configure it with an AMD Ryzen 5 or 7 CPU and up to 16GB of memory and 1TB of storage. There are two 1080p display options, an IPS and a TN panel; we recommend getting the IPS display as it has better color reproduction and gets brighter to combat glare.

As it's a budget model, there are some compromises to consider. The first is that while the keyboard feels spacious and provides satisfying tactile feedback, it can cause fatigue over time as the keys require a fair amount of force to actuate. Second, you can't charge the laptop via USB-C, meaning you'll have to carry the charger with you. Some models have a fingerprint sensor, so it's best to check the specs before buying if it's a feature you want.

In the more affordable budget category, we recommend getting the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 (2021). It's available with AMD Ryzen 5000 series CPUs, which are more than capable of handling most productivity tasks and provide a smooth desktop experience. The battery life sits around nine hours of light use, so depending on your workload, you may need to plug it in for a quick charge. Unfortunately, you can't charge the laptop via USB-C, so you'll have to carry the barrel plug power adapter.

There are also other compromises, like the keyboard and touchpad. The former can cause fatigue over time as the keys require a fair amount of force to actuate, and the latter doesn't register some movements or gestures at times. The overall build quality is good, though, and it's easy to carry around, thanks to its thin and light design.

If you're shopping on a tight budget, get the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 (2021), a 15.6-inch Windows laptop. It feels sturdily built despite its low price, and it's portable, thanks to its thin and light design. It's available with AMD Ryzen 5000-series CPUs, which aren't as fast as the CPUs in the laptops we recommend above but are still very capable. It has a 1080p display that gets bright enough for use in most indoor settings and a decent port selection that includes three USBs and an HDMI port. The keyboard feels spacious; however, it can be slightly tiring to type on for extended periods as the keys require a fair amount of force to actuate. The battery life sits around nine hours of light use or a little over an hour when performing demanding tasks. Unfortunately, you can't charge the laptop via USB-C, so you'll have to carry the barrel plug power adapter.

Our budget pick is the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 (2021). This Windows laptop is easy to carry around and has enough battery life to get you through a typical eight-hour workday. Its 1080p display is decently sharp and provides plenty of room for split-screen multitasking, so you can keep your reference material on one side while you write. The keyboard feels spacious and provides satisfying tactile feedback, but it can be a little tiring to type on for an extended period because you need to apply a fair amount of force to actuate the keys. The touchpad is okay; it's on the smaller side, making it hard to perform actions like dragging and dropping. Some models have a fingerprint sensor built into the power button, so it's best to check before buying if this is something you care about.

For you budget-minded folks, we recommend the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 (2021). It's a 15-inch model available with AMD Ryzen 5000-series CPUs, which are more than powerful enough to handle most productivity tasks. The battery life is good at around nine hours of light use and eight hours of video playback; the downside is that the USB-C port doesn't support charging, meaning you'll have to carry the proprietary charger. The keyboard feels decent to type on but can be fatiguing over time, and the touchpad's tracking is just okay, as it sometimes doesn't register a movement or tap. The fingerprint sensor is an optional feature, so make sure to check the specs first if it's something you care about.

 It's heavier, though&mdash;at 4.84 pounds, it has a full pound on the 3.75-pound Asus and 3.91-pound Dell

75-pound Asus and 3.91-pound Dell. Also, its AC adapter is a bulky plug that hogs two spaces on a power strip.&nbsp;

Eight and a half hours away from a wall outlet isn't bad for an inexpensive desktop replacement, though it's nowhere near the stamina of modern ultraportables. The IdeaPad may not quite get you through a full day at the office or school, but it'll survive an unplugged work session.

The keyboard has a flat, plasticky typing feel that's dull and uncomfortable. We experienced a number of skipped and double letters. The small, buttonless touchpad glides and taps smoothly enough but has a stiff, hollow click.

Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 (2021) Review

Not impressed so far. It's fine for a workhorse but it has a bad habit of freezing and crashing to the point where I have to do a hard reboot (terrible for the laptop). The screen is fine except for when I'm connecting remotely, then it becomes really hard to see. If you need a cheap laptop and do not need to connect remotely to another computer, then this might work for you

Has crashed on me three times since buying it

Bulky but in a good way, easy to use, good microphone

Bad sound system

Keyboard keys non premium feel

Nicely made little laptop

 What's the point of an AMD graphics card if the screen is unable to differentiate between dark blues and blacks? I got a headache looking at anything that was dark on the screen and mostly everything is very dark as the screen also has very poor lighting/brightness.  Just make sure you save the box if you buy. Amazon gives you a month to try it out after using it for a couple weeks you'll have this slight headache if you stare at the screen for more than 20 mins, and I have perfect vision!  I LOVED MY OLD IBM THINKPADS. This one didn't even have the little red track ball either

Brutally Bad Screen / Display

 Battery will last all day with medium use. The durability on laptop is okay I dropped it and some scratches that's about it. Screen is umm okay if you're buying this laptop it's not for the screen. But overall it's a great laptop the speaker s are okay

It gets the job done honestly better than I thought it could

PC freezes regularly if more than one app is open, and is overall a very slow device. Fan runs loud, and I end up loosing Data regularly (which is rough when looking for work. Has caused issues on interviews as well. So convenient that the warranty ran out last month
