Type-A Gen 1 ports (one on each side, which is really handy for charging and connecting accessories), as well as a microSD reader, an audio combo jack, and a lock slot.

The hinge is firm and does provide stability to the display while using it as a tablet, with the keyboard as a stand. With my workflow and usage, the laptop easily provided me around 9 hours of battery life in a single charge. That sense of engineering quality extends to the keyboard, which has plenty of keystroke and a really solid base. As for battery life, this is one seriously long lasting machine, notching up over 16 hours of video playback.You can expect that this thing will last all day, and certainly longer than many more powerful Chromebooks. If your battery for Lenovo FLEX 3 Chromebook-11IJL6-82N3 occurs the issue with non-human factors during the one-year warranty period, free repair service or a new replacement could be offered after reviewing by our after-sales department. It includes a power button on the right edge in lieu of one in the keyboard, which is handy for waking up the laptop when its keyboard is lying face-down on the desk.

You'll feel some unwanted flex in the chassis when you lift the laptop by a corner, but it manages to be sturdy enough so that you feel no no irritating bounce when typing. We also offer especially scratch-resistant Privacy Tempered Glass from the brand Savvies for selected smartphones from Apple, Samsung, and Sony. This will usually involve letting them know what has gone wrong and they will arrange for the issue to be rectified for you. On the left flank is a USB-C port that does double duty as a power jack, but you'll also find a USB 3.For the Flex 3 and the other Chromebooks with only 64GB of onboard storage, we played the video from an external SSD plugged into a USB port. The Flex 3 is good for working mains free or surviving a long-haul flight with over 16 hours of video playback and well into double figures even for the most demanding workloads. Geekbench by Primate Labs uses all available cores and threads to simulate real-world applications ranging from PDF rendering and speech recognition to machine learning, while GFXBench 5. But the Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 3 has carved out a little niche of its own thanks to that particularly good build quality and some good features including dual USB-C ports.

When I’m using the Flex 3, I feel like I’m looking at a small window of screen floating in an abyss of black. language":{"de":"","de_at":"","pt":"","en_th":"","pt_br":"","en_ph":"","th_th":"","es_mx":"","en_hk":"","es_es":"","id":"","nl_nl":"","nl_be":"","sv_se":"","es_ar":"","da_dk":"","en":"%3Cp%3EThe%20CO2%20Offset%20service%20is%20contributing%20based%20on%20the%20average%20cost%20of%20the%20carbon%20emissions%20associated%20with%20selected%20devices%2C%20from%20manufacturing%20to%20shipment%20and%20the%20average%20lifecycle.There are caveats, of course: There’s very little bass, percussion is weak, I heard a bit of distortion at max volume, and you’ll want an external speaker for any crowded setting. The heyday of ultra-cheap Chromebooks has come and gone, but you'll still find some remarkably affordable models out there.
