LenovoIdeapad Flex 5 14Itl05 14" Touch Laptop i3-1115G4 4GB RAM 128GB SSD W11H

great laptop for casual use, tablet mode, drawing, productivity, and business meetings. fast intel processor, light - all within a good price point. highly recommended.

My old laptop was slow and on its last legs. Ironically also a Lenovo. I was hesitant to get another one, but after doing my research, and knowing what I needed a laptop for, this one came up multiple times on multiple lists. My husband agreed it was time for a new one and I decided to go with this one.I am thrilled that I did. It starts up super-fast compared to my old one and shuts down very quickly. While it doesn't have a backlit keyboard, that isn't a dealbreaker for me. The keys are responsive, and the keyboard is comfortable.The touchscreen is great and easy to use. I haven't had much need to use it yet, but I can see where it will be beneficial. I love the fact that I can convert the laptop, and it is easily portable. I bought a case to carry it around in that is fantastic and it fits great in. For avoiding scratches (since I have a dog) I did purchase a snap on case that is my favorite color purple and I can add stickers to. (links to both below)I have had zero issues with my laptop since getting it and I would gladly buy it again. Since I plan on using it for pictures and there is no SD card reader, I made sure to purchase an external SD card reader with a USB connection. (last product link)If you're looking for a budget laptop, this is definitely one to consider.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08PK4RTXV?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_detailshttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B08RC88H2Z?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_detailshttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B08P1T8R46?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

Add a flash drive and it’s a cheap memory upgrade. Touchscreen is responsive and it folds into a tablet and cuts off the keyboard

I'm an amateur musician and I noticed that a number of my colleagues were using large format iPads for their sheet music, so I looked into it and found that the large iPads were quite expensive, so I decided to see if I could find a cheaper alternative. I found a refurbished unit of this IdeaPad for $219 (thru Amazon), so I purchased it and a Lenovo touchpad stylus (an additional $30). For my purposes, I was looking for a unit with an HD screen, a touchpad, and the ability to convert to a tablet (so it can sit on a music stand). This IdeaPad only has 4GB of RAM, but that is plenty for my purposes. It only has a 128GB M.2 drive (which, again, is plenty for my purposes), but it can be upgraded by the user to a generic 1TB M.2 drive for $50. For my project, I wiped the Windows 11 installation in favor of xubuntu 22. It installs easily once the secure boot feature is disabled in the BIOS.As for fitness of purpose, I just got this IdeaPad, so I don't know how well it will work as a sheet music alternative. I still need to modify some GPL'd PDF display software ("xournal" seems to be the best candidate I've seen so far) for ease of use during a 2.5 hour rehearsal. Also, preliminary tests seem to indicate that the battery probably won't last for a full rehearsal with the display being driven full-time.I knocked a star off the touchscreen for its non-intuitive behavior -- the screen starts to respond when one moves the stylus within about 3mm. This has led to some stray marks in my early tests. I knocked off 2 stars from the battery life because of its performance under load. This may be because I purchased a refurbished unit, so take it with a grain of salt.

The media could not be loaded. I’ve been using the Lenovo Ideapad Flex 5 (14”, i3, 4GB RAM, 128GB SSD) for a few weeks now, and it’s honestly a solid choice for everyday use.The touchscreen is super responsive, and the tent/tablet mode makes it really versatile for things like streaming, note-taking, or working on the go. I use it mostly for light productivity browsing, Word docs, content planning and it handles it well without lag.Battery life is decent, and the build quality feels premium for the price. It’s lightweight and portable, which is great for students or remote workers.⚠️ Just note: it’s not meant for gaming or heavy editing, but for basic tasks, it delivers. The stylus is a nice bonus if you take notes or sketch.Overall, it’s a great budget-friendly laptop that punches above its price. Would recommend for students, casual users, and anyone who needs a reliable everyday device.

Bought it to use for home. Love this computer.

Good product given the price. Works great! . Will update if anything comes up

Great 2 in 1 for the price! Perfect for your everyday use! Screen Quality is pretty good! Perfect for what I need to do. No dvd drive but for that price for a 2 in 1, no problem! Love it!
