The Jumper 16" Laptop is usually cheaper and offers a larger 16-inch screen with better resolution, which is good for media consumption and productivity with clearer and more roomy visuals. However, it has a weaker processor, less storage, and less RAM compared to the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15", which means it may be slower and less capable when dealing with multiple or resource-intensive tasks. The Lenovo also offers additional modern features like a better integrated graphics card which may be beneficial for casual gaming or graphical tasks. If your priority is performance and future-proofing for a range of applications, the Lenovo might be the better option despite its slightly higher price and smaller, lower resolution screen. However, if your primary goal is to save money and have a larger display for basic tasks and consuming content, the Jumper could be sufficient. Give Feedback

NotebookCheck

Sascha Mölck | February 2023
"The Lenovo IdeaPad 3 is an enduring office notebook with a powerful Ryzen APU. Lenovo's office all-rounder easily handles office and internet applications as well as modest games - the Ryzen 5 5625U APU and 16 GB of RAM make this possible. The CPU and GPU can work at consistently high clock rates. The emission values are okay, but the noise emissions should be lower under medium to full load. The relatively light notebook (approx. 1.6 kg) achieves practical battery runtimes of about 10 to 11 hours."
