Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 15 Laptop, 15.6 FHD Display, AMD Ryzen 5 5600H, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650, 8GB RAM, 256GB Storage, Windows 10H

Great for young gamers

Ive sent this specific model back 4 times - the wifi keeps disabling (machine completely loses wifi options, and occasionally Bluetooth)

I got this for my 12 year old. This is our first gaming laptop. From our experience, its a good beginners laptop for gaming. It is on the lower end price wise, for gaming laptops. I find its comparable to other brands with similar specs. If you are a hardcore gamer, I would say this might not be the one for you. This handles gaming and videos well, but I dont think itll be delivering the amount of content in high quality for more advanced games. My sons games that dont require large amounts of data or high resolution for playing. This provides the speed and graphics he needs, but also allows for quick access for homework and research. Keyboard lights up nicely, and makes it easy to identify keys in the dark, when he plays games. Key strokes are light and responsive. Its very user friendly and settings allow to customize parental controls. Battery life is decent. He keeps it on his desk most of the time, so hes always within reach of a power source, but Id imagine gaming drains the battery a little quicker than just browsing internet. He likes setting it up for watching movies and hasnt had any issues. This can more than handle what he needs it for and his gaming. More experienced and advanced gamers, might be wanting more. Storage might need to be expanded, depending on use, so whether you upgrade laptop or use external harddrive, might be something to consider when pricing and comparing.

This may be ok for gaming. I have a PC that is powerful enough for the digital art I do. I wanted a laptop for travel. I make very large files. This laptop could not handle the task.

Es segura fácil de manejar trae lo que necesitas para trabajar tiene poca vida la batería... pero la saco poco de mi escritorio así que para mi es perfecta

battery lasts about 15 to 20 mins needs to be charged again

Would have been better if the dedicated graphics card was plumbed through the Thunderbolt port.

Firstly, the bios for this thing is literally a joke. There is no real co figuration for the bios and it’s basically a GUI that lays over the real bios to keep you from doing anything. Secondly, it does not support any m.2 storage devices other than the microscopic one that comes installed. The laptop has almost no ability to recognize external devices, my 600$ custom keyboard just doesn’t exist to this laptop at all. But my busted razed mouse connected and worked properly within a millisecond. This thing is a joke for hardware compatibility and software interface. But aside from the nightmare of that stuff, it’s pretty solid and I will be extensively pushing this thing to update my review later on it’s gaming capabilities

I spent a LONG time considering different laptops, WEARY of the fact that most machines are built to fail, because premature failure drives the market due to endless greed. I decided on this one due to low rate of failure and no apparent major modes of failure. After a few months, so far no issues. Will update this review if that changes.

This laptop is great for gaming and very easy to upgrade
