The terribly named Amazon Prime Big Deal Days is upon us, but amazing deals are coming with it, even from stores outside of Amazon; Lenovo is offering the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 at a steep discount that'll make the perfect holiday gift.

For a limited time, the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 costs $250 at Lenovo with the coupon IP3FLASH1. It comes with an AMD Ryzen 3 7330U processor, 8GB of RAM, a 512GB SSD, and a 15.6-inch, 1080p display. The most significant feature is its CPU, which offers great performance for that price point.

The Slim 3 is among the best Prime Day deals. Now, we haven't had the opportunity to review the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3, but most laptops at its price point will either stick you with a weaker processor or be a Chromebook.

A Windows laptop that won't immediately slow to a crawl when you pull it out of the box is a bit of a rare find at this point. However, keep in mind that this is still a low-end machine. You shouldn't expect to be juggling intensive tasks.

Overall, the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 is a great choice for those who need a laptop for simple tasks or as a gift to that young child or elderly person in your life.

Reviews: While we haven't reviewed the 2023 model, Tech Radar took a crack at the 2024 version and complimented the laptop's reasonable features considering the price.

Tech Radar: ★★★★

Buy it if: You want the most performance you can get for as little money as possible. You are willing to make compromises in the display and audio department.

Don't buy it if: You are working with intensive tasks. With only 8GB of RAM, the Slim 3 won't handle someone who likes to have 100 Google Chrome tabs open all at once. You want a laptop to last longer than a few years.
