If you prioritize a larger screen and more storage, the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 might be a suitable choice as it has a bigger display and twice the storage capacity compared to the Jumper. However, the Jumper 14" Laptop, despite being more expensive, offers more RAM, which could lead to better multitasking performance. The Lenovo is heavier, which might affect portability if you travel frequently. Additionally, if battery life is critical, consider that the Lenovo has a larger battery capacity, which could mean it lasts longer on a single charge. Both run Windows 11 Home and are suitable for general use and light productivity tasks. If you often perform tasks requiring powerful graphics, neither of these may be ideal, as they come with integrated graphics that are not tailored for intensive 3D, machine learning, or gaming workloads.

The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 is good for general use, while the Jumper 14" Laptop is poor.
The Jumper 14" Laptop, with its Intel Celeron processor and 12GB of RAM, offers fair performance for general tasks, and with its lightweight design and modest battery size, it balances portability with battery life. The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3, using an AMD Ryzen processor and 8GB of RAM, potentially provides similar general use performance but increases screen size and battery capacity, which improves visual experience and battery life at the cost of added weight and reduced portability.

The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 has a better screen than the Jumper 14" Laptop for general use, engineering and design, content creation, and software development.
For general use, the Jumper and Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 laptops have screens with adequate resolution and brightness, making them suitable for everyday tasks like browsing and watching videos, despite not having the high-quality panels found in premium models. In engineering and design, while both laptops provide sufficient clarity for most tasks, professionals may find the color representation lacking, as these screens do not cover the wider color gamuts necessary for precise color work. Gamers and those engaged in 3D work would be constrained by these laptops' lower refresh rates and modest resolution and panel types, which do not support the smooth, detailed visuals that high-end gaming and 3D modeling demand.

Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 to be only fair for engineering and design, while the Jumper 14" Laptop is poor.
The Jumper 14" Laptop's Intel Celeron J4105 processor and Intel UHD Graphics 600 are less capable for demanding tasks such as engineering software, compared to the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 which has a more robust AMD Ryzen 3 7330U processor and Vega 6 graphics. Additionally, the IdeaPad offers a slightly larger and higher-quality screen, beneficial for design work, whereas the Jumper's screen, although decent, is smaller and less bright, making it less ideal for detailed visuals.

How the Jumper 14" Laptop and the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 compare to other laptops
"For the vast majority of people looking for a beautiful, affordable, and portable laptop, the Jumper EZbook S5 is a perfect choice. It’s surprisingly capable of things like web browsing, Office, webmail, and beyond. The experience offers a few compromises when it comes to more intensive tasks, but for college students looking to save money, or someone looking to buy their kid a basic daily-use laptop, this is truly one great option."
Olivier Martin, Ryan Lim, and John Peroramas | May 2023
"The Lenovo IdeaPad 3i is decent for use as a workstation. Its Intel CPU and integrated graphics can only handle light productivity tasks, not demanding workloads like video editing or 3D graphics. You also can't do any color-critical work because the available displays have a narrow color gamut. It has a good port selection, but its USB-C lacks Thunderbolt 4 support. On the upside, it has a comfortable keyboard and doesn't get hot or loud under load."
