Description
Built for you
The IdeaPad 3 (17) AMD was designed to bring you more for less, letting you handle everyday computing tasks and run demanding applications that spark creativity. With up to AMD Ryzen™ R7 processors with Radeon™ graphincs and bountiful memory and storage options, you can tailor this laptop to your lifestyle. A 17″ FHD display with Dolby Audio™ will let you dive into your favorite movies and shows, and its webcam privacy shutter will keep hackers’ eyes out of your life.
A level up
Nothing’s worse than buying an entry-level laptop and having to replace it when you pick up a new hobby or skill that requires better performance. The IdeaPad 3 (17) AMD was designed to keep you in that entry-level price point, but with beefy Ryzen™ R7 processing options that will stay current as your needs evolve.
Robust visuals
With a spacious 17″ display with FHD resolution, you can catch all the fine details in your favorite photographs and streaming videos. And you can take those visuals to the next level with optional AMD Radeon™ graphics. Narrow bezels give it a sleek and borderless look, providing you more screen to look at. And with Dolby Audio™ sound, you’ll love what you hear as well as see.
Command your privacy
How creepy is it that hackers can watch your life by breaking into your webcam? With our physical privacy shutter, the IdeaPad will keep those prying eyes out of your life so you can enjoy your screen time safely, with the people you want to share it with. And with an optional fingerprint reader power button, your laptop won’t even wake up unless you’re the one trying to do it.
Work in silence, or go loud
Using Q-Control you can push your processor to its potential with “Max Mode,” perfect for gaming and other demanding tasks. Or tone it down with “Stealth Mode” that cuts out fan and hard drive noise with a simple keystroke, so you can stretch out some extra battery time on the go.
