The 2020 model isn't even a year old and it's already on sale. The timing suggests that Lenovo may announce a revision with 4th gen Ryzen options this Summer to replace the last year's 3rd gen options.

Costco is currently hosting a sale on the 14-inch AMD Lenovo Flex 5 2-in-1 for $150 USD off the original launch price. The retailer had a similar sale in January but with an Intel processor instead.

This latest deal is notable for its Ryzen 7 4700U CPU which is comparable to even the fastest Intel 10th gen or 11th gen Core i7 CPUs that often retail for higher prices. In other words, users would be getting the performance of a high-end Ultrabook out of this Flex convertible for about half the price. Other features include a backlit keyboard and two 2 W speakers.

Thunderbolt is not supported which is to be expected since the Flex is a mid-range model in contrast to the higher-end Yoga series. We've yet to review this specific chassis and so we can't offer our personal impressions on the system. It is, however, the latest design from Lenovo succeeding the older design we reviewed back in 2019.
