Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 (2022) Overview
Built & Display
Major remodel on the visual outlook of the laptop with a noticeable hinge which is now placed in two distinct pedestals. Compared to last year’s Lenovo has made quite an exception with two exhaust vents behind the hinge.
The exhaust is quite visual because it has a light blue accent (the color which is most associated with the Legion brand). All over, the device chassis is all-plastic and doesn’t feel as premium as its siblings.
For display, it is available in two sizes 15.6-inch and 16-inch in Nepal with Full Definition resolution, 100% sRGB coverage, and 165Hz refresh rate.
