Lenovo just announced a bunch of new computer products in its recent Innovate 2023 event in the Philippines. One of those items is the new Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i and 5i Gen 8 for 2023.
The new Lenovo IdeaPad Slim Gen 8 models come with a new Smart Power feature that utilizes a machine learning algorithm that can predict workload needs so it can adapt power output based on real-time usage, resulting in optimized battery life and performance. They also have a bigger screen with up to 90% active viewing area as well as a user-facing speaker for better audio.
Unlike the Yoga Book 9i, Slim 7i Carbon, and Yoga 9i Gen 8, the IdeaPad Slim is geared toward users who want a complete experience without breaking the bank. They can be had with up to a 13th-gen Intel CPU, 8GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage.
The new models are 10% slimmer than their predecessors with a pretty straightforward yet robust design.
You can get the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i with a 15.6-inch FHD display, Intel i3-1305U CPU, 8GB RAM, and 512GB of storage for a price of Php34,995. The IdeaPad Slim 5i comes with a 16-inch 2.8K display, Intel i5-12450H CPU, 8GB RAM, and 512GB of storage for Php43,995. Both models are available at Lenovo Experience Stores and authorized resellers nationwide.
