This IdeaPad Slim 3 didn't have a great price earlier this year, but Best Buy is pushing it way down for its Deal of the Day.

Best Buy loves to sell a laptop at a great price for a single day, so if you’re in the market for one, the Deal of the Day page is great. For example, today it’s featuring a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 laptop with a Ryzen processor, big touchscreen, and 16GB of RAM, all for just $419.99. That’s an incredible deal, but you need to move fast to get it.
When we reviewed this laptop just a few months ago, reviewer Chris Hoffman said the IdeaPad Slim 3 is decent but priced way too high, so it “could be a great deal on sale.” Well, here it is. Note that the version he reviewed was an Intel variant, but otherwise it’s the same design—and the Ryzen 7 5825U is arguably the better pick if you want to do some light gaming. 512GB of storage, 16GB of RAM, and a touchscreen that’s not often seen at this price point are also great inclusions.
The laptop scored low on battery life with just three cells, but its port selection is solid with one USB-C, two USB-A, full-sized HDMI, and a standard SD card reader. It’s fairly middle-of-the-road for a 15-inch laptop in terms of portability with a 3.56-pound weight, but I’m glad to see both an IR camera for face unlock and a physical privacy shutter over the webcam—two more features you don’t often see below the $500 mark.
This Best Buy deal expires today (Friday, September 5th) at midnight Central US time (1 AM Eastern on Saturday), so get an order in quickly if you want one. There may be a demo unit available at your local Best Buy retail store, too. If this one doesn’t strike your fancy, then check out PCWorld’s picks for the best laptops on the market.
