Lenovo has expanded its IdeaPad Slim laptop range in Europe with a new 16-inch model, the IdeaPad Slim 3 16IPH11. The device targets budget-conscious buyers by offering Intel Panther Lake processors and user-upgradeable components at a starting price of €1,009 in the Eurozone.
The new laptop features user-upgradeable RAM and dual M.2 storage slots for budget-conscious buyers
The laptop features Intel Core Ultra 5 322 or Core Ultra 7 355 processors. It ships with 16 GB of RAM and includes dual M.2 2280 slots for storage expansion. The system supports Wi-Fi 6 connectivity and comes in either a 50 Wh or 60 Wh battery configuration.
- Processor: Intel Core Ultra 5 322 (6-core) or Intel Core Ultra 7 355 (8-core)
- RAM: 16 GB (user-upgradeable)
- Storage: 256 GB (dual M.2 2280 slots)
- Battery: 50 Wh or 60 Wh
- Display: 16-inch 1200p IPS (400 nits) or OLED (300 nits, 100% DCI-P3), 60 Hz
Display options include a 16-inch 1200p IPS panel rated at 400 nits or an OLED variant with 100% DCI-P3 color accuracy. The OLED screen operates at 300 nits and maintains a standard 60 Hz refresh rate. Lenovo claims the 60 Wh battery configuration lasts up to 27.3 hours during local 1080p video playback.
The laptop supports user-upgradeable RAM, allowing buyers to increase memory capacity after purchase. Storage configurations start at 256 GB but utilize dual M.2 2280 slots for future expansion. The device is available in the Eurozone and UK markets with specific regional pricing structures.
Starting prices are set at €1,009 EUR (about $1,173) in the Eurozone and £949 GBP (about $1,275) in the UK. Purchasing a Windows license directly through Lenovo allows customers to reduce the overall cost of the device. The device is currently available for purchase across European markets.
The new model joins the existing IdeaPad lineup, which already includes devices powered by comparable Intel Panther Lake chips. Earlier models in the series were priced higher than the current starting point of €1,009 in the Eurozone and £949 in the UK. The new Slim 3 model offers a more affordable entry point into Lenovo's current laptop lineup.
