Overpriced
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall, it's a nice computer but it's definitely overpriced. I appreciate the thumbprint sensor.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBad battery life. But pretty good
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good laptop, if you need it for the basics, I run zoom on it and the battery life is so bad it only lasts an hour it basically has to be plugged in the whole time.

Posted .Hey, KimberlyG. We are sorry to hear that the battery life on your Flex 5i has fallen short for you. Regarding your issue with battery life – there are lots of variables that contribute to shorter battery life. Thankfully, many of those variables can be adjusted. By default, the system will tend to give more speed when needed, which can sacrifice battery life. If you want to squeeze out more battery life, we recommend users utilize the Lenovo Vantage application that is preinstalled to adjust settings related to power and battery performance. Users can also take advantage of the keyboard shortcut, Fn + Q to toggle thermal modes and easily switch between prioritizing battery life or power, or even the best of both words. We appreciate you taking the time to share you experience with us, as it does not go unheard.

Posted .Hi MarygraceF,
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are sorry to hear that you are having trouble with your Flex 5i. We apologize for the frustration and inconvenience that this may have caused you, and we'd like to work with you to resolve this issue.
To start, we recommend ensuring you have the latest software by checking for updates, as this could correct the issue with the latest version of Windows patches and driver updates. To do so, first, open the Settings app > Select the Windows update tab > Select the Check for updates button. Next, open the Lenovo Vantage app > on the homepage, select the Check for updates button and ensure are updates are fully installed.
Next, to address battery life – there are many variables that contribute to shorter battery life. Thankfully, many of those variables can be adjusted. By default, the system will tend to give more speed when needed, which can sacrifice battery life. If you want to squeeze out more battery life, we recommend utilizing the Lenovo Vantage application that is preinstalled to adjust settings related to power and battery performance (to access relevant settings, open Vantage > Device Settings > Power). You can also take advantage of the keyboard shortcut, Fn + Q to toggle thermal modes and easily switch between prioritizing battery life or power, or even the best of both worlds.
Please update us when you can regarding this and reach out to us again should you have any questions or need further assistance.

I would recommend this to a friendSo far so good!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just got this computer today. I am 100% excited. Pros: the touchscreen is amazing, the fingerprint sensor works awesome, there is a back light on the keyboard that has two different settings or an option to keep the back light off absolutely love that. Great at multitasking can pull down tabs and minimize while having numerous still trying to figure this laptop out, but so far, I love everything about it. When you fold into tablet mode, it automatically locks the keyboard so that it’s not activated. Cons: speakers are OK they’re not what I expected have the volume at max volume and it’s not as loud as I expected.
