If you are looking for a premium budget ultrabook, the IdeaPad Slim 3 might be a great option.
Lenovo has finally brought the all-new (2025) edition of the Lenovo Ideapad Slim 3 to Nepal. Here, we now get a taller 16:10 aspect-ratio display, powerful yet efficient processors, and more. So yeah, in this article, I will discuss the all-new IdeaPad Slim 3, including its specifications, features, and price in Nepal.
Talking about the build, it comes with a solid and lightweight build made from ABS plastic. It also comes with a metal top cover, which improves the overall feel and makes the laptop feel premium to touch. The metal lid houses a Lenovo logo at the center, which makes the design more elegant and cleaner. The device weighs around 1.64 kg and measures around 17.9 mm thick, which is ideal for both students and business owners.
Talking about the display, it has got a sweet upgrade from the previous generation, as now it comes with a taller 16:10 15.3-inch IPS display compared to the previous 16:9 display. The change brings more vertical screen space, which is a great advantage for productivity. Other than this, it's a basic display with an anti-glare coating, which comes with a 60Hz refresh rate and 45% NTSC color.
Inside, we get either an AMD Ryzen 5 8540U / Ryzen 7 8840HS / Ryzen 7 170 or an Intel Core 7 210H CPU. All these processors are quite good for day-to-day tasks, but we shouldn’t expect high performance for gaming or video editing. However, we can expect good battery life on AMD processors compared to Intel, as they are quite efficient.
In terms of memory, the laptop ships with 8GB of soldered memory, but we have a single SO-DIMM slot available, which we can use to add up to 16GB of RAM, bringing the total to 24 GB. For storage, it comes with 512GB of NVMe SSD.
Regarding the battery, we get a 60Wh cell that charges via a 65W adapter included in the box. It also supports Lenovo Rapid Charge Boost (2 hours of runtime in a 15-minute charge).
For connectivity, it includes 2x USB-A 3.2 Gen 1, 1x USB-C 3.2 Gen 1 (supporting Power Delivery and DisplayPort 1.2), 1x HDMI 1.4, a 3.5mm headphone/microphone combo jack, and an SD card reader covering most everyday needs for external devices, displays, and audio accessories.
The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 is an easy-to-carry everyday laptop for students and business users who need a laptop to do light to moderate tasks such as multitasking, programming, online classes, internet browsing, and virtual meetings. However, it is not for gaming or professional-quality video editing.
The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 (2025) starts at NPR 84,999 for the AMD Ryzen 5 8540U and goes up to NPR 128,999 for the AMD Ryzen 7 170. You can purchase this laptop from various stores nationwide.
