Reviews for the Lenovo IP Flex 5 Chromebook Plus 14IAU7, i5-1334U

I recommend this Chromebook over many Windows laptops that cost twice as much

The Lenovo Flex 5i Chromebook Plus is on sale for $600 at Costco. I recommend this to anyone looking for a new work, budget-friendly computer. It performs better than some higher-end laptops while providing a soft keyboard and loud speakers. If display quality is important to you, I would instead suggest the Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Plus from 2024. The resolution is the same, but it has an AMOLED panel that provides more vibrant colors.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.
