Very pleased with my purchase of Lenovo IdeaPad Flex. I replaced a similar Lenovo laptop that had aged out. Now I have a longer battery life, faster processing and more up to date features. I download a lot of books from the library, and I find reading books on this laptop to be perfect. I liked my old Lenovo laptop so much I basically replaced it with a newer model.
