If you’re on the hunt for a new Chromebook Plus, you may be interested to know that the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 is currently discounted down from £349.99 to £249.99 – that’s a 29% saving. This particular device is a Chromebook Plus which means that it meets specific hardware requirements set by Google for an even better experience.
The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 features a 14-inch Full HD display, an 8-core 8-thread Intel Core i3-N305 (all cores are E-cores), 8GB RAM, and a 256GB SSD. The SSD should provide ample space even if you’re going to be installing Android apps and the fact that it’s an SSD means it’ll make your computer feel snappier than if it was running with a hard drive.
