so this Chromebook is marked coming soon on Lenovo's official site, but Amazon has it listed and some people even left review on it with the product pictures...what is going on? Is the Amazon link for real? Or Lenovo is just lazy about their own products or something?

Amazon Link: https://www.amazon.com/Lenovo-Chromebook-i3-10110U-Integrated-82B80006UX/dp/B086383HC7/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?dchild=1&keywords=lenovo+flex+chromebook&qid=1593461823&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEzQ0NISjZVNjFaS0hFJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNDUyODAyMjBJNFo4UFg1Q0dUNiZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwMzE4OTc0Mk1JV0dUSzZOQUhKSSZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=

The link looks legit. It's listed by Lenovo, and it's sold and shipped from Amazon.ca

 

It could be a miscommunication between Lenovo and Amazon. They could have gotten them in, and not realized they're "not released" yet, and started selling, or Lenovo just sucks and hasn't updated their website yet.

@Statik problem is no other site like newegg or bestbuy has it on their sites either, only Amazon has it and the Amazon link even has reviews by customers who have gotten the thing in their hand...I also think that there might be laziness on Lenovo's end but need to be sure XD

I mean if it's a product you want there's virtually no risk. There must just be a disconnect somewhere if I had to guess. If you indeed do get fucked over, then amazon will cover/refund you. They're good like that.

 

If it's something you want I'd personally suggest getting it now, incase there is an issue and they sort it out.

happens quite often with amazon if i remember they had the 3100 up before i had heard of it coming. Must just be poor communication with certain manufacturers.

thanks a lot, yeah I had heard about the 3100 as well that is why I was thinking the same thing, sometimes its poor communication, sometimes lenovo just gets lazy  anyways thanks again!
