Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 12th Gen Intel Core i5-1235U 15.6" (39.62cm) FHD Thin & Light Laptop (16GB/512GB SSD/Windows 11/Office 2021/Backlit/2Yr Warranty/3months Game Pass/Arctic Grey/1.63Kg), 82RK0085IN

Performance wise really great laptop but if you are going for a TN display then it becomes really painful to look at the laptop. If you are planning to spend a good number of hours with a laptop working on it then I believe it will impact the eyesight because the colours look washed out in TN display even if you try setting up various display brightness levels it won't look good. You need to sit and look from an exact angle to get the property visibility. Don't expect any good results if you are looking at the screen from angle more than 30 degree. From the left, it will look too bright white and from the right, you will see too dark black. Lenovo has given both TN and IPS displays - TN display is for low-budget laptops and IPS for a higher budget. Lenovo has clearly mentioned it is TN display so it is general characteristics of the TN display to work like that and it does not provide good viewing angles in general. Also, speaker's sound is not that great. Performance wise this is a great laptop - no fan sound very silent operation and all the applications program runs smoothly without any issues. TN Screen displays 2 out of 5. (go for IPS version) Speaker sounds 2 out of 5. In nutshell, it is a low budget laptop with a main focus on performance with an average display and speaker but with great processor power and RAM.

I wanted a fast laptop for my personal use. This laptop fulfilled all my needs, This is great buy at this price. i5 12th gen CPU and 16 GB memory along with SSD drive makes this laptop work faster. Only negative point is battery. It could have been better. Backup is just 2-2.5 hours even for new device. But overall at 57k this was a good deal.

Writting this review after using for a month :- Best design and build quality you can buy as it contains ssd which gives best performance for an day to day life and charging last for upto 4 hrs and also best in preformnce. Can buy this laptop for an day to day user and

Warranty mentioned is 2 years but battery failed within 1 year. They are selling laptop saying 2 years of warranty but battery warranty is only 1 year as per Lenovo (even if laptop is unsold for one year they handover expiring battery laptop to customers). I am writing this review after using laptop for more than a year, I raised warranty claim, it is more than 2 months now, neither Lenovo nor Amazon responding and not replacing battery under warranty, they are charging around 5000 more for battery, claiming warranty is the most difficult thing with Amazon, customer care people keep on asking for 1000 things which is impossible to privide details being on call and they never resolve Warranty issues. There is no direct email we can contact Amazon support, each we need to provide details being on call with customer support and uploading details never ending process, in fact they dont have intention to resolve warranty claim. Warranty mentioned is 2 years but battery failed within 1 year and when informed Amazon they are asked to raise it with Lenovo directly, but Lenovo says battery warranty is only 1 year. There was no separate warranty slip provided by Amazon for battery and it is built-in battery. I were to call Amazon customer care several times but each time they ask to upload more information which never ends and the battery not replaced after 2 months within warranty period.

Nice Product

Good laptop I am using since 1.5 years, not any issue

**Update after an year of usage : I want to bring it to everybody's attention that batteries are not included in the two year warranty. They have a one year warranty only, and this was not communicated on the site. A little over an year after using, my battery went dead without any symptoms, so I want others to be vary of this. Otherwise I was satisfied with the purchase, just this experience proved to leave a sour taste in my mouth. *Update after two months usage: The display is actually the weakest part of this laptop. Studying in a college pursuing CS, I am around all sorts of laptops, and it is very apparent among all the better screens. Otherwise the device works just fine in all other respects, the battery could've offered a wee bit more charge but it's alright. I got this laptop for 54k, for which it is a decent deal. The best thing about it is that it is an overall well rounded machine. It is well built and looks good, is sufficiently thin and light, has a modern and fast processor (for day to day purposes, not including gaming and related stuff), boots within 10 seconds and wakes up in about a second, and has some decent speakers too. Biggest Con for me would be the display; the 8 GB variant comes with an IPS display, which should be available with the 16GB as well (I have the latter). Darker colors look a little meh, maybe it could be a deal breaker if that's your priority. No fingerprint sensor and single level backlit keyboard are another couple of misses, which should be offered (some competitors do). Overall, as a college student, this is a satisfactory purchase for me. It's the kind of deal that you can't go wrong with, no nonsense reliable product with a great warranty package. Although the prices have increased since, and I'm not sure I can recommend it at >4k more than what I purchased it at (54k).

Very nice laptop. Worthy for the price. Only con is predated warranty, instead of 24 months it shows 17 months warranty. Amazon took back the laptop when I asked about it.
