Pros and Cons

Lenovo IdeaPad 3i

Strengths

The Chromebook itself was in like new condition with zero battery Cycles
The trackpad is pretty decent for an entry-level Chromebook, it's a large size has a good click feel to it when pressed and responds well to gestures
The keyboard is a plus point to this Chromebook being a larger device you get the benefit of the number pad as well the keys have a medium travel to them and feel nicely responsive to type on
General performance is no issue, even with light gaming such as Real Racing 3

Weaknesses

The build quality feels all plastic but it's solid enough which may be expected at this price point
The trackpad was a little loose feeling, which bugged me so I opened it up to adjust it and improve it (Note: not recommended as it voids the warranty)
The display is a compromise, full HD but TN rather than IPS, so it looks washed out and viewing angles are not great
There's only one USBC port for power data and display out

The laptop feels incredibly solid, especially when you press against the seat cover.
It's seriously slim, thinner than a lot of laptops out there (13.9mm) and weighs only 1.3kg.
