Lenovo Flex 3 11-inch Review: No Longer the Yoga Half Measure

The new Flex 3 ditches the cheaper half measures of the old Flex, opting for a full 360-degree display hinge. The result is a budget option that actually feels like a higher value alternative to Lenovo's more expensive Yoga line.

High quality design ; Excellent touchpad ; Crisp audio quality ; Long lasting battery

Lenovo Flex 3 11 Review – small, flexible, and ready for business

Lenovo has introduced a number of low-cost laptops recently, and if you're considering getting one of them, look no further than the Lenovo Flex 3 11. This small laptop starts at $299 USD, a starting price shared by the IdeaPad 100 and some other...

The Lenovo Flex 3 11 is a budget laptop that doesn’t feel like a budget laptop, and that makes it the most appealing among the maker’s latest low-tier offerings. The Yoga-like flexibility and the touchscreen are both big perks over the Lenovo S21e and...

Big fat negative

I would not recommend this computer to anyone until Lenovo removes their heads from the sand and fixes the wifi issue. Lenovo should pull the Flex model off of the shelves completely.

Size and screen resolution.

The WiFi is intermittent. Every 30 seconds or so it disconnects from my network. Sometimes it cannot even find a network at all. Got to the point where the WiFi adapter disabled itself completely. Still did not work after running updates and...

Functionally broken

- Comes with Windows 10. I personally have come to not really see the point of all the extra features of Windows 10. I just wanted a computer that works. - The material used to make the body around the keyboard and trackpad look very nice.. until your...

- Actually quite good, when it works. Moderately fast, feels sleek. - battery life is pretty satisfactory - brightness can go quite low - Keyboard backlight is a nice touch - booting up/waking up the computer is pretty fast - Bluetooth. It's nice to...

- almost always has two or three features completely unresponsive (listed below) - restarting computer would fix one or two of the features, and then other features would break! - power button on side of laptop; often pressed it by accident. Not a huge...
