Community Reviews
This IdeaPad Slim 3 looks like a strong budget productivity laptop, with a Ryzen 5 8540U, 300 nit touch IPS screen, USB C charging, and a 60Wh battery that stands out at this price. The memory is upgradeable, with an 8GB soldered module plus one DDR5 SO DIMM slot that can reach 24GB total, and the SSD can be expanded with some effort. The main tradeoffs are the cut down port selection, no USB4, HDMI 1.4, and uncertainty around external monitor refresh rates. It feels like a capable everyday machine if you can live with the leaner I O and modest base storage.

Hdmi 1.4 and 30hz. Isn't that a big issue if you connect it to an external monitor? I read you want 60hz minimum for an external monitor when connecting from laptop otherwise it lags? Or that is related to 4k monitors only? So connecting it to an external monitor regardless of monitor's resolution or anything or isn't going to be smooth? It does have a usb-c port so that connects to 4k monitor and 60hz right? So you can connect 2 external monitors but the hdmi will be lagging and not smooth? Or that isn't noticeable?
It charges with the barrel and not usb-c? So this isn't good since you can't charge it with a powerbank right so this would bother some people? I'm curious but if you have a Dell PW7015L barrel powerbank which I have, would you be able to use that with this laptop if charging it? Of course using a powerbank charger when you have no access to a power outlet and your battery is low on laptop.
What is the battery like on this? 60whr means probably how long when web browsing or youtube or movie?
No USB4, No HDMI 2.1, not even 10gbps USB3.2...

I read that 30hz means it's going to lag a lot on the external monitor right?

Why would they do an hdmi 1.4 anymore then since all modern laptops are hdmi 2.0 then?
But if you connect the monitor to usb-c, no limitations on that right? But this hdmi 1.4 is useless so might as well it being nothing then right?
