    I am very pleased with my new laptop. I do have one caveat. The hinges of the laptop tend to catch on fabrics if you place it on your lap.

    This is an excellent Chromebook/pad. It functions really well and the touch screen with folding screen turns it into a giant pad. It's fast and responsive.

    This is a pretty good computer. I got it from my husband for for his birthday. It’s super fast you can watch basically YouTube videos on it. It’s also great that you can use it for business. You can type documents on it. There is no lag. It’s really nice and smooth. Can look at multiple apps at the same time on it. All he ever did was talk about this computer so if you wanted affordable Chromebook, this is it.

    Excellent chromebook for basic computer task. I wonder this Chromebook had Inter 5 processor instead of Intel 3. I like 2in1 design and the laptop is lighter in comparison with other Chromebook Plus. The price is reasonable for what it does even thought you might find it on sale at BestBuy too often.

    Was a top rated laptop on the reviews, my daughter really likes it. Had an issue with startup and downloading things needed for class, so my daughter took it in and Geek Squad had it blazing in less than 10 minutes! Thanks!

    I purchased this computer because I have been using google docs along with the chrome OS on my macbook and like the versatility. I subscribe to Nvidia GeForce Now and find this computer plays all my steam games with the same resolution and speed as the mac, for a third of the price. I also find the flex function very handy when I want to watch videos or read a book.

    I recently purchased the Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5i Chromebook Plus from Best Buy and have been thoroughly impressed. Here's a concise review: Design: The laptop sports a sleek, professional look with a two-tone grey finish. It's aesthetically pleasing and feels sturdy. Performance: Equipped with an Intel i3 processor and 8GB of RAM, it handles everyday tasks smoothly. The performance is reliable for browsing, document editing, and media consumption. Display: The 14-inch screen offers crisp and clear graphics, enhancing the experience for both work and entertainment. Keyboard and Trackpad: The backlit keyboard provides a comfortable typing experience, and the responsive trackpad adds to the ease of use. Versatility: As a 2-in-1 device, it offers flexibility with various modes, including a tablet mode compatible with a stylus. Best Buy Experience: Purchasing from Best Buy added value with their warranty options, ensuring peace of mind. Overall, the Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5i Chromebook Plus is an excellent choice for its price, offering a great balance of design, performance, and versatility. I highly recommend it for anyone in the market for a reliable Chromebook.

    Wanted a Chromebook Plus model for the kids (11th, 9th, and 6th graders) so they could do schoolwork more easily than on their school-provided basic Chromebook. This one seemed to be the best one for the price, but... It's a Christmas present and won't be opened for 2 weeks, so I'll update this review in a few weeks with the thoughts from my kids after they first use it and after they've used it for a while.
