Nice big screen
The heart of the Lenovo IdeaCentre AIO3 is a tight one 27 in large display (26.9 inch, Screen diagonal 68.4 centimeters), around three times the size of a standard 15.6 inch notebook. The display works with a full HD resolution (1920×1080 pixels). Full HD is a good choice for office programs, because the menus are not as tiny as in displays with a higher resolution, which are better suited for editing photos or videos in 4K. In terms of image quality, the IdeaCentre’s screen also scored points: with precise color reproduction and high contrast. The display is matted this ensures a minimally pale color display, but prevents annoying reflections. Ideal for use in the office.
Rare: The Lenovo IdeaCentre AIO 3 is one of the few all-in-one PCs that still have an optical drive (DVD burner).
Super quiet, but not always
The fact that the processor in the Lenovo IdeaCentre AIO 3 (Core i5-10400T) is a fairly economical model has two advantages: In normal operation, the processor only heats up a little and therefore hardly needs to be cooled: This way, the fans in the Lenovo stay with them 0.1 sone whisper quiet. Second advantage: Despite the large 27-inch display, the all-in-one PC only consumes 38 watts; it only draws significantly more power from the socket (104 watts) under full load. Then the fans turn up audibly: 3.6 sone Don’t just bother in quiet surroundings.

Test result for the Lenovo IdeaCentre AIO 3
The next all-in-one PC should be big but not that expensive? Then the Lenovo IdeaCentre AIO 3 (test mark 2.7) is a good choice. When working, it is really fast and remains super quiet (0.1 sone). The fans only make noise under full load. There is plenty of storage space: a fast SSD for Windows and programs, a hard drive as a spacious data storage facility for music, videos and photos. Good for working: the display is slightly matt and hardly reflects.
