Lenovo unveils budget IdeaPad Slim 3 15Q7X11 laptop with 120 Hz display and 33-hour battery life

Lenovo announced its new budget laptop, IdeaPad Slim 3 15Q7X11, featuring a 15-inch display, as per the official PSREF database. Although the device is not yet available for official purchase, retailers in Europe have started listing it with prices ranging from 400 to 569 EUR, which converts to approximately 459 to 653 USD, suggesting a low launch price when sales officially begin.

The laptop utilizes Qualcomm's energy-efficient Snapdragon C C11-0100 octa-core processor, which is expected to deliver performance below that of the Snapdragon X X1-26-100 used in last year's IdeaPad Slim 15Q8QX10, priced at 699 USD. The device matches the smaller 14-inch model with a battery life of up to 33 hours, relying on a 50 watt-hour battery.

The 15-inch model includes several hardware differences from the smaller version, such as an integrated numeric keypad that shifts the keyboard and touchpad to the left, and offers an additional option for a touchscreen with a refresh rate of 120 Hz, a feature absent from the IdeaPad Slim 3 14Q7X11 model.
