@@tirklus So for mine, I have the i5 version, it’s good for Roblox yes, but expect a few web download issues (that may be for all laptops, don’t know.)

Hi! Question. I have the Lenovo Ideapad Slim 3 and it has a backlight keyboard but for some reason I cannot adjust its brightness, it only has on and off (dim and off) options. Is this normal?

@user-nz1xs3vb9d9 ай бұрын
the same problem. I have ideapad slim 3 with i3 N305 processor. Even in this video, you can see that the keyboard has only one level of brightness. On the other hand, when turning on the laptop, the keyboard shines with stronger lighting, which means that the hardware itself supports stronger lighting, but the problem is in the software. I hope that Lenovo will solve this problem.
@kheicee9 ай бұрын
@@user-nz1xs3vb9d I so agree with you! I actually tried calling the Lenovo Premium Support here in the Philippines about this issue but all they said was it only supports one type of keyboard light (it cannot be adjusted because it was according to the "specs" of the laptop) but honestly I doubt it because if it only supports one type of light, then how come whenever we reboot it or turn it on, its showing us maximum brightness.

So, you're one of those youtubers who thinks that companies have to change design just for the sake of it ... ok. Btw, a laptop mainly needs two things: the screen and a keyboard. How much room for design change do you think can there be around that? Btw 2: look at car makers. Most famous car makers don't change design every year, but they keep the main aspects and just refine it year, after year, after year (for example mercedes, bmw and audi). Try to give more importance to substance and content instead of form. P.s. what do you think about sony mobile phone? Like the bezels? I do ...
