Picked up the Lenovo Flex 5 13″ for my young son who uses Chromebooks at school. After a bunch of research it came down to this or the Lenovo C330. I was originally favouring ASUS but learned that, surprisingly, Lenovo has some of the best Chromebook offerings. Buying an affordable Chromebook isn’t easy because you’re basically looking for the best offering among some of the lowest PC specs available. Nothing stands out as being particularly great unless you start approaching a cost that has you wondering why you’re still looking at Chromebooks. In the end I chose to spend a little more for something newer and faster that could perhaps get my son through his grade school years.The Lenovo Flex 5 13″ stood out for a couple of reasons based on the reviews I read. Right off the bat it has a decent fully HD (1920×1080) screen. I think the screen looks great — nice brightness and good contrast. The viewing angle is a bit limited as I noticed that swaying left to right even a little bit started to affect the viewable colours on the sides of the screen but overall the effect was negligible.The touch screen was a bonus. I know my son likes to work with his iPad so I figured at times the touch interface could be more intuitive. The screen can be flipped back into tablet mode and the touch screen worked well but it’s certainly not as comfortable to hold as a slim iPad. Plus, you now have the keyboard exposed on the “bottom” which is a bit awkward. Sometimes it is just easier and faster to just touch the screen than use the touchpad though.The interface and browsing was pretty snappy with the Core i3-10110U Processor. The 4GB of RAM was the main factor that had me hesitating on this purchase but so far it hasn’t been a problem. I’m very pleased with how fluid and responsive the system feels.Keyboard has a decent size, it’s backlit, and it feels good for a notebook. The touchpad is also fairly large and it’s responsiveness was perfectly fine. Note that if you have never worked with a Chromebook before, it DOES take some getting used to some of the touchpad gestures. For example, you don’t just click the right side of the touchpad for a right-click, you need to tap the touchpad with two fingers. You can scroll windows by swiping up and down with two fingers. etc. I personally do not find the Chromebook interface to be very intuitive which is a bit of a concern for my younger son but I know he’ll learn. Many options are simply hidden from the screen and you just need to know the appropriate gestures or button clicks to work your way around the system.Speakers face upwards and I found them plenty loud. I don’t expect great quality from built-in speakers but these did the job.The Flex 5 13″ also has a full size USB-A connector which some Chromebooks don’t offer. It might be a minor thing but this makes it easy to connect any typical mouse or memory stick you probably have. I think this is just convenient for people without the technical know-how to deal with converting USB interfaces. There are also USB-C ports on both sides which is also convenient.Storage-wise, the Flex 5 13″ comes with about 46GB of free space out of the box.No problems connecting to Wifi. The connection remained stable and fast.Overall I am please with this purchase. I have nothing to complain about. I was probably hoping to spend about 3/4 of the price for a Chromebook ($538 at the time of my purchase) but I think the little extra money was well spent in this case. Except for the 4GB of memory, I don’t feel I’ve compromised on anything. Being a newer product it will also continue to receive Google updates for a while.UPDATE: We’ve now used the Chromebook for the entire school year and it has been fantastic for my son. At least half the year, if not more, was remote learning and we never once had an issue with WIFI, the camera, or audio with Google Classroom. Also, the 4GB of RAM (my biggest concern) never seemed to be an issue either. My son tends to leave a LOT of browser tabs open and we never encountered any noticeable slowdowns. Very reliable Chromebook that has performed GREAT for the year — still very pleased with the purchase!
Excellent features for the price. Great for university. I purchased this to be a “commuter” device for university. My Windows laptop is a bit too expensive and fragile for me to want to stuff it in a backpack and carry it around all day. When I purchased this, I was looking for something that could be used for video conference lectures, that I could do schoolwork on, and that I could use for light internet browsing during study breaks. I used it during the fall 2020 semester, and this met those expectations and more. Here’s the “Good, Okay, Bad” breakdown.Good:The convertible screen ended up being incredibly valuable, once I finally got my hands on a USI stylus. I used it to take notes directly on PDFs of my lecture materials using Squid, and it really upped my study game.If you’re already deep in the Google ecosystem, this is a really handy device to have. My Pixel paired easily and now I can see my text messages on my computer. That’s really cool.Startup takes no time at all.The battery life is impressive. I can consistently get at least 8 hours of heavy use, even with my brightness turned all the way up. It charges really fast, too.The screen is clear, bright, and vibrant. I’m used to a much larger screen on my Windows laptop, and the transition to this smaller screen was easy, because the quality is so nice.It’s a durable little sucker. I’m kind of hard on my electronics. Four months of daily use, and it still looks the same as it did the day I unboxed it.The keyboard is excellent and I love that it’s backlit. I wish it had a 10-key numpad, but it definitely wouldn’t fit one.The touchpad is also excellent and I love that it supports multi-touch.I’m just a big fan of Chrome OS. It’s simple and easy to use. There’s almost no learning curve. It has a lot of fun little tricks that make it really simple and efficient to use.Okay:The RAM is sufficient for my needs. It gets a little laggy when I have a lot of tabs open and apps running simultaneously. By “a lot,” I mean like 20+. I currently have 12 tabs, one of which is a youtube video, and Google Hangouts open and it’s running fine. It sometimes struggles to handle having multiple youtube videos open, or having a youtube video paused in the background while I do a video call. It has crashed on me a few times, almost always when I have multiple youtube tabs or streaming services running simultaneously. But as long as I’m careful about how much I have open at one time, it’s fine.The touchscreen is just okay, even with the USI stylus. It’s not bad exactly, but sometimes it takes a while to recognize my USI stylus. I’m not sure if that’s a problem with the stylus or the Chromebook. Palm rejection, latency, and smoothness vary a lot depending on the app you’re using. (I tried every handwriting app in the play store.) I’ve never used it to draw. I wouldn’t use this as a tablet replacement. It’s a little bit too big and the layout is a little bit too unwieldy.The app selection is okay. You can run most Android apps on a Chromebook. Usually they work fine. Sometimes they’re a little clunky.The webcam is alright. It’s nothing fancy, but it’s fine for video calls. I like the privacy cover.Bad:The speakers aren’t great. They’re loud enough, but they’re tinny with no bass. The speakers on my Pixel 3a are objectively better. I almost always use headphones, so this isn’t a huge problem for me – I didn’t even notice until I’d already owned this Chromebook for a few months. But if listening to music without headphones or an external speaker is important to you, this might not be the device for you.Overall, I’m very happy with the Flex 5. I would recommend it if…You already have a more powerful Windows or Mac device and want something lightweight, cheap, and sturdy to carry around.You’re caught between buying a tablet and a laptop, because you want a bigger screen/better keyboard/more traditional computer-like interface than you can get with a tablet, but you don’t want to spend a ton of money on a laptop or sacrifice features and durability for a low-tier laptop. (This is the perfect compromise for that, especially if you’re already a Google/Android user.)You’re a light computer user who basically just wants an internet machine, but you want a nice internet machine. I would highly recommend this for an older adult or a kid who doesn’t need any fancy software.You already own Android or Google devices and want something that will complement them.

From its crisp screen to lightning-fast startup and exceptional battery life, this Chromebook has become my go-to companion for work and play.

The peace of mind that comes with a reliable battery life is truly invaluable, especially during long trips or extended work sessions.While the Lenovo Chromebook Flex 5 excels indoors, it does have a minor downside when it comes to outdoor use. The screen brightness, while generally adequate, could be improved for optimal visibility in bright sunlight.

Its crisp screen, lightning-fast startup, and remarkable battery life ensure a delightful user experience. While it could benefit from improved screen brightness for outdoor use, this Chromebook excels in every other aspect, offering a seamless blend of performance, versatility, and value.
Reliable and simple. I’ve had this laptop since 2022. The things I like are the price, backlit keyboard, a comfortable keyboard, like the touch screen, and for simple everyday use, it works very well.Things that aren’t so great are the think pad mouse can be difficult to right and left mouse click. Not aggressively so but I played some basic games and it can get touchy. I don’t ever use the ipad option. If you don’t fold it slowly it can mess up the latches. I still like it but I think it’s just early for that type of manufacturing/ technology development. And the sound of the speakers could be higher.I think overall for the price it’s a great value especially if you’re looking for a simple everyday computer. It fit my budget and the ipad option is still fun. If I had a good case I would probably use it more because I’m afraid of dropping it because of the lack of grip. I use it every day and I really enjoy it. I think this would be great for students looking for a basic computer or for traveling. Great lightweight build and reliable. Definitely has gotten hit around and has been great.
2 years on and now it breaks. I bought this Chromebook because I was going back to school and was using it at work seminars. I love the touch screen and the ability to use it as a tablet is great, though it is a bit heavy. However, less than years after purchasing the camera no longer works – all I get is a black screen. The warranty, of course expired, I’ve tried all the troubleshooting from Lenovo and Google to no avail. If I didn’t have to have the camera and video capability for work I wouldn’t mind, but I do and it’s frustrating.
