LenovoIdeaPad Flex 5 14 inch 2.5K Laptop (AMD Ryzen 5 5500U, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD, Digital Pen, Windows 11 Home) - Storm Grey

Very pleased with my purchase. I have a Lenovo Yoga 370 which i have had for a few years and that has been faultless, and runs windows 11 great, though its chip isn't approved for Win 11. This one is a bit bigger and surprisingly heavier, if it had wheels it might do well in Robot Wars. The cpu is powerful and compares to an Intel i7 quite favourably, I doubt anyone could tell the difference in the real world. I can't fault hardly anything except for the speakers, which are delightfully clear but seeem to be optimised for the laptop experience, and you will need external speakers for filling a room with sound. I particularly like the privacy shutter on the camera lens. Another nice touch are the hinges which when in laptop mode on a flat surface they tilt up the keyboard. The 2.5k screen is (on mine anyway) actually WUXGA, fabulous to look at, but as you get better battery life with the WUXGA (a step up from full HD itself) I'm not sending it back at the price I paid. There are 3 performance modes to choose from via the Fn key and Q depending on your needs and the battery. There aren't many laptops out there with fingerprint sensor and backlit keys at this price and in my opinion its got everything most users, except outright gamers, would want in a laptop.

As a uni student this is not the computer to buy, This has to be the most difficult and a annoying laptop I’ve ever owned, it goes in to sleep mode constantly no matter if the setting has been changed and you cannot wake it up without resetting it , loses charge quickly , you cannot get rid of bing web browser and settings don’t seem to save, safe to say it will be my last windows laptop.After nearly a year of owner ship it now constantly overheats and doesn’t connect to Wi-Fi and I am already seeking a replacement.The laptop it’s self feels cheap the key lights don’t stay on they always turn off. However I am able to use the software I need such as auto cad and sketch up and adobe illustrator with ease

nice notebook, works really well. Picture quality well and very responsive.

The pen stops reacting and just completely stops working every now and then, then the keys broke off even though they were perfectly fine, 25 to ship it in to get the issue checked out and then would've had to pay more and was told the whole keyboard had to be replaced for 3 keys coming off, I got the replacement keys off ebay for less than 10 and it's all fine

Bought this for a good price for our son who is a uni. He is totally happy with it.Would like to buy one for ourselves but price has gone up. Too expensive now.

We needed a new laptop and this was recommended by my brother who is an It engineer. Very pleased with it

I am a videographer and I had to leave this laptop back because the colours are just terrible in this laptop. It is a pity because i loved the spec but the colours are unbearable, i returned it. Also the hinges are quite cheap, they are made out of plastic and it looks like they will break.

Very nice to have .... powerful
