Can't find any details on the panel, if it is TN or IPS.
The touchscreen version is IPS @ 250 nits, the non touchscreens are TN @ 220 nits.

Thanks OP! I purchased this exact model a few weeks ago for $179 and just got a price adjustment for $50 plus tax. Nice little machine for web browsing and streaming video.
how did you get the price adjustment

Man, 1080 but to bad this doesn't have the N4000 or N4020 in it. I have the 11 1/2" Lenovo 3 with the 4020 and it's pretty snappy with Octane scores around 18,000. The MT8183 only hits around 10,000 which is definitely iffy even in a Chromebook. Heck, the 2012-2014 Acer C710's and 20's are faster.
Haven't seen any of the NEW MT8192/8195 chromebooks hit this price range yet. And probably won't for another 1-2 years.

What do you mean 2 years of free music streaming. I can't find that anywhere for this purchase. Can you please elaborate on that thought?

I just called Best buy and asked for a price adjustment. I believe you have to be within the return window to get the adjustment. I was pretty painless.

This is the first Chromebook in the recent slew of deals that looks like a real winner. 14", 1080p, decent processor for this price. Really tempted to bite even though I don't really need it.

It looks like the AUE (Auto Update Expiration) date is June 2028. Very nice.

I think you put too much emphasis on this single benchmark. It has 8 cores so apps that use them do very well. Apps that do not do not do as well.

The point is this may not be as snappy but it should work well. Especially at this price range.

Sure if you want snappy get the N4020 the N4000 is slower. Or real snappy pay even more and get an I3.

As a long time Chromebook user from the beginning, except for the first free one, when someone mentions Octane they are primarily probably like me and mainly a web browser user.

How would this perform mainly for using Citrix from home?
Works good enough, it lags when you use Citrix VPN

Missing HDMI
Per "Lenovo Product Expert" on Best Buy:

Thank you for choosing the Lenovo Chromebook 3 14 model number 82KN0000US. This model ships with 1x USB-C 2.0 (support data transfer, Power Delivery 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.1a) port, with video out capability to an external monitor. This Chromebook 3 14 supports up to 2 independent displays via native display and 1 external monitor; supports external monitor via USB-C (up to 1920x1080@60Hz). If you are connecting an HDMI monitor with a USB-c adapter, be sure the adapter and the cable you are using is compatible with DisplayPort 1.1a version. Check the resolution settings within your monitor.

So yes, no HDMI, but you can utilize the USB-C 2.0 port for an external display.
