Our Verdict

ASUS VivoBook Flip 14 (2020)

Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 (2021)

The Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15 (2021) and the ASUS VivoBook Flip 14 (2020) are both thin and light Windows laptops. However, the IdeaPad 3 is a clamshell laptop with a limited hinge range, while the VivoBook Flip has a 360-degree hinge that lets you use the laptop as a tablet. The IdeaPad provides a better user experience as its display is sharper and brighter, its keyboard is more comfortable to type on, and its touchpad is more responsive. The IdeaPad also has a better webcam for video calls and a wider port selection, and it's available with more powerful AMD Ryzen 5000-series CPUs.
