Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 3 11IGL05 laptop review: Quiet, efficient, and slow convertible

Fanless and slow. A laptop without fans can be an amazing thing, especially for people who are sensitive to noise. But Lenovo makes too many compromises with the extremely affordable convertible IdeaPad Flex 3 11IGL05. In the end, it is simply too slow, even for its low price.

A fanless convertible could also be a high-end laptop, but the Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 3 11IGL05 can be ...

fanless & silent; good battery life; IPS panel; cheap; acceptable speakers;

slow processor; eMMC memory; only 4 GB soldered RAM; non-upgradeable; display: weak color-space coverage, PWM; no USB Type-C port;

Happy with the purchase

It's good value for money. Decent battery life, sturdy build, light weight.

best value you can get

Battery life is much longer and charging time is quick.

Very Impressed

Handles browsing and youtube very well, and is the best display screen in its price range. I would have no concerns giving this to my child for google classroom school work, though it is a larger device than the school room issue ones.

Fit for purpose

Nice and light. Dispatched and received quickly.

Good Chromebook at this price

Picked this Chromebook as it has FHD screen so 1080p resolution. Also good keyboard and build quality. Very happy works well.
