Smarter Features for Less Hassle – IdeaPad Chromebooks

Take the essentials anywhere with the incredibly versatile IdeaPad Flex 5i Chromebook (14”, 7). Powered by up to 12th Gen Intel Core processors, the stunning 14-inch FHD IPS display screen with optional 400-nit brightness and 100 percent sRGB color vibrancy treats the user to a better visual experience, bringing shows and games to life even in most outdoor environments.

Get more done and say ‘bye’ to endless scrolling through spreadsheet rows with the taller 16:10 aspect ratio display with thin bezels on all sides. Enables creativity with support for its optional stylus, plus a user-friendly, larger (120mm x 75mm) touchpad for more flexibility.

This unique 2-in-1 convertible Chromebook is packed with thoughtful details to get started faster as it works to help keep the user better protected with its optional fingerprint reader and a physical camera shutter for privacy, when not video calling with family, friends and colleagues on crystal-clear video calls via the FHD webcam (1080p).

Offered in Storm Grey and Stone Blue with a clever 360-degree hinge, the IdeaPad Flex 5i Chromebook provides fuller and louder sound in every mode from dual front-facing speakers tuned by MaxxAudio®. Enjoy a better touch and type experience with the drop-down hinge that gently lifts the keyboard, allowing the user to rest their wrists. It also comes with optional backlighting for working after-hours at night. Swipe, tap and scroll with a battery life of up to 10 hours, and switch to tablet mode to take advantage of an interface designed for touch.

Users can also experience outstanding performance and big-time entertainment on the 2-in-1 IdeaPad Flex 3i Chromebook​ (15”, 7).  Offered with a large 15.6-inch FHD IPS touchscreen display, user-facing speakers tuned by MaxxAudio and plenty of I/O ports for peripherals. Its responsive Intel Pentium® Silver N6000 processor will enable productive multitasking when the user’s on the go.

An 18.94mm thin and light frame (1.91kg) offered in Abyss Blue and Arctic Grey hues helps to make this convertible ideal for stylish commuters – just slip into the bag and go. Featuring Google’s Chrome OS to power productivity tasks quickly, the IdeaPad Flex 3i Chromebook also offers the extra convenience of a numpad​ and larger touchpad for a more natural user interface​, allowing the user to select and edit files more efficiently.

When it’s time to embrace the productivity-from-anywhere life turn to the ultra-mobile IdeaPad Duet 3 Chromebook (11”, 7) that’s 7.9mm thin and fanless design runs cool and quiet. The responsive performance and leading efficiency of the Snapdragon® 7c Gen 2 Compute Platform enable up to 12 hours of streaming video on a single charge^, so Duet 3 Chromebook users can play and work longer from home, a park or café.

As the 2-in-1 successor to Lenovo’s much-acclaimed original Chromebook Duet (10”), this new device is sure to take centre stage. Enjoy all the sights and sounds from the slightly larger 11-inch 2K near-borderless display that’s TÜV-certified for low blue light, a significant upgrade over last gen’s touchscreen with upgraded dual speakers for clear audio.

Offered in Misty Blue and Storm Grey, this Chromebook offers enhanced durability via a ‘snap-on’ detachable keyboard with anti-pry and water-resistant keys. The optional stylus which can be attached to the folio case via a removable clip draws quickly and like a real pen with tilt support for natural-angled brush strokes and fast inking.

The smart keyboard automatically disables when folded into tablet mode​ allowing for notetaking with the stylus pen without accidental keypresses so one can focus on the screen. Paired with two USB-C ports for easy connections and first-class features like a folio kickstand, 5MP front camera and 8MP rear webcam​ – simply remove the folio case and hold it as a camera for a quick chat with pals.
