The hinge broke. Custom service was very rude

The lid couldn't be closed after a year of use. It had two years of warranty. Spent over 40 minutes to call custom service and was told that it was not covered!!! She hang off the phone and close the case without even mentioned it. I found from the website the case was closed. I had owned more than 6 Lenovo both for work and home use. Never will buy it again.

Beware of weak hinges...they break!

almost exactly a year after purchase from costco, the hinge on this ideapad broke. Costco would not honor the extended warranty. This is the second Lenovo that I buy and the second that falls apart within the warranty period. Will never buy again.

Does not power on after 3 times

I purchased this 3 days ago finger printer did not work, I thought ok I can live with that but then it just wouldn't power on something with the power on button. Worst purchase I have ever made.

Broken Hinges in a year

I bought lenovo ideapad through Costco on feb,21 for my son and as just after a year use, it's hinges came out loose. Please check website for hinges issues as it occurred to multiple customers. When i contacted customer service in spite of having extended warrantee on the product, he refused to help. I end up throwing the ideapad to garbage and bought new HP. I will never ever buy another Lenovo product due to it's poor product quality and hittable customer experience.

a great laptop for the money

a great all-around type of platform. not sure how it holds up against gaming but seems to do fine under different types of other programs. fingerprint reader is spot on and the built in camera cover is a nice plus.

My brand new laptop is a lemon

I purchased this laptop to replace another Lenovo laptop I had for a couple years that started having issues with the screen blinking... this new one is not only blinking, but with a white steady screen and I have had it less than a month. This is unacceptable. Still trying to contact support!!

Seamless transition!

So easy to set up and use! After years of being a Mac owner, I switched and chose to go with Lenovo. I thought there might be a ?learning curve? but everything about this computer made the transition seamless! Highly recommend.

It's value for money

The laptop runs snappy even with the ryzen 3 configuration. Battery life is good. Only thing I don't like is the cheap feeling plastic chassis and no-backlit keyboard

2 in 1? More like ALL in One!

THIS LAPTOP IS COMPACT, SMOOTH, QUICK AND QUIET. I GOT IT FOR WORK AND IT'S BEEN A BLAST. THE ONLY THING I REGRET IS THAT THE KEYBOARD IS TOO SMALL BUT OVERALL, IT'S AMAZING!

Good enough for personal use, not work Zoom.

It is small and compact. Big con is that it does not support Zoom blur background

Great little laptop

I love my IdeaFlex. The only reason I am not giving it 5 stars is that I haven't had it long enough to really determine if there are any issues that aren't immediately apparent.

Great portable/speedy laptop for the price

I'm really liking this laptop as my daily portable driver. I own a full out gaming laptop that I use for high performance applications and gaming of course but it is heavy and and loud and not fun to carry around everywhere. This Flex 5 has solved those issues. I really only bought it because I need to have on me mostly all the time and I needed something light with decent performance to have several tabs open all at once and for a budget. The only complaint I have about this rig is the cheep plastic on the keyboard. Its quite flexible.

1st experience with Lenovo

The purchase direct through lenovo went smoothly. The computer arrived within several days as promised. The laptop feels like a quality machine as soon as you touch and open it. I appreciated the minimum amount of preloaded software that came pre installed. Much cleaner to get going with the programs that I actually want and can install myself. After 3 weeks with the laptop very pleased with it. Thank you Lenovo. This was my first Lenovo based on a recommendation from a friend.

Old-Timers review.

As an 87 year-old I have eyesight and dexterity problems. Compared with the Surface laptop that I have used previously the Lenovo is far harder to read; grey font on a very grey background not easy for old eyes. Somewhat squirrely, jumps around at times or turns off app in use in mid sentence, but still getting used to handling this. Unit itself ooks good, is sturdy and has reasonable battery life. Keyboard excellent.

Extremely slow. It is not worth the money,

This product is extremely slow and is not worth the price. I was hoping to just use it for school but I'm afraid to tell you that it can't even handle simple zoom or meet calls. I gave it 2 stars only for the look. The customer service for Lenova is also very irresponsive. I have been trying to contact them few times in the return window but they keep sending me to different departments till the return window is closed. It was also delivered passed the deadline. I hate this product and customer service both and feel externality disappointed for the time, money and energy I have spent to receive this product.

Good experience so far

The laptop has been great so far. The quality is good and the speed is good. Graphics is also good. The only complaint is the video quality for video calls is horrible. It's blurry and not clear. I would expect the built-in camera to be better than this.

Flex 5 Ryzen 7 5700U review

This is a great laptop/tablet very fast and starts life with Windows 11 not a upgrade on top of Win 10. The laptop is very very built with a good screen, WiFi 6, fingerprint reader, webcam with privacy shutter and illuminated keyboard. I recommend the Flex 5 14" Ryzen model for personal or biz use It can handle most software no problem (have not tried video editing yet). This will be my traveling pc for many years to come.

IdeaPad Flex 5 14 (AMD) 2 in 1

Works fine and it's fast but the keyboard is slightly bent upward in the right corner - the build quality could be better. The touch screen is a great concept and works well.

Does it all.

By MArthurt

As a student and working professional in STEM, I always have software and large papers I need to work with. This does it all with ease. It’s also fun to game on.

My new Laptop

By Len23

I love how I can flip the whole laptop with ease. The keyboard is very soft and easy to type in. The sound system is amazing. The only downside for me is how easy it is to scratch the layered paint on the top surface. Overall it is really great!

Thin and light, foldable, touchscreen laptops with multiple ways to engage; classic laptop mode for maximum productivity, stand mode for an optimal touch experience, tent mode for gaming & entertainment, and tablet mode for extra mobility and practicality.

A narrow bezel on 4 sides gives you more viewing area and less clutter to interfere with the task at hand. Whether that's at work, or play, enjoy the most out of your screen with IPS panel technology and Full High Definition on the IdeaPad Flex 5.

Today's world is not a simple place, but that doesn't mean we can't build a simple solution to a complex problem. A physical shutter on the webcam ensures you keep out unwanted attention when concerned about your privacy. This isn't your typical laptop that you carry around - it's a fashion statement.

The IdeaPad Flex 5 is built with a new level of attention to detail, making this machine soft and comfortable to the touch with a durable paint that creates a better user experience. The IdeaPad Flex 5 is designed for you to keep your ideas flowing, anywhere, anytime with the ability to multi-mode. Use it in 'Laptop' mode for everyday computing, 'Tent' mode for sharing things, 'Stand' mode for binge-watching, or 'Tablet' mode for more intuitive interaction.
