    Average laptop and ultimately returned. Just was not fast enough, touch was delayed and good luck using a 2 monitor setup with this.

    I wanted to love this computer, and I was very excited to get it. The interface is good, but the touchscreen does not work. It starts to work if I restart the computer but fails after 5 minutes or so. The tablet mode is unusable, and I am very disappointed

    First time buying a non-Apple laptop. I definitely recommend this laptop at its price point - it might be unbeatable from this standpoint. The screen is nice, especially with the touchscreen capabilities. My only wish is that the audio quality could be a bit better, but this is just a small nitpick at an otherwise great product.

    I bought this PC because it advertised 3 USB ports as well as and HDMI out port for an external monitor. 1 USB-C port and 2 USB-A ports. At the unboxing I discovered that the USB-C port is being used for the power supply making it unusable. There was a totally unused DC power connector that wasn't being utilized, and this would have required the purchase of an additional 65 watt universal power supply costing over $60. Stupidest thing I have ever seen. I had to return it and got a Dell laptop (cheaper) that had a real power adapter cable. This thing also turned itself on the moment that I opened the lid to look at the keyboard, and I had NOT touched the power on button yet. I have an older Lenovo laptop that is still working after 10 years (Windows 7 upgraded to Windows 10) so I was hoping to stick with this brand given its performance history.

      Hello, ElmerK, we are sorry to hear that your IdeaPad Flex 5 15 has not met your expectations. You are correct in that this model Flex 5 15 features 3 USB ports, 1 USB-C 3.2 Gen 1 port for data transfer and power delivery, and 2 USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports. The included USB-C charger is intended to give the user the convenience of USB-C's universal design. This model Flex 5 also has a feature called "Flip to Start" where the computer will turn on by opening the laptop lid, not requiring the power button to be pressed for the device to turn on. This feature can be toggled off in Lenovo Vantage settings under the Device > Power tabs. We recommend learning what specifications and features you need to effectively complete various workflows and tasks if being use for work or education, personal use, and your preferences in design and features to help find the right solution before you invest in any computer.

    Still getting used to my new laptop love the backlit function on the keyboard have not tried out my pen yet. Only thing seems the battery is not good for a very long time maybe 6 hours and this is just doing basics not gaming. Nice clear display and get you where you want to go quickly.

      Thank you for choosing the Lenovo Flex 5i 15, model number 82HT00CQUS. This model ships with a Integrated 52.5Wh, Lithium-Polymer Battery, which within this model configuration, has a battery life of up to 10 hours, depending on the work the device is performing. If you are getting substantially less battery life, first, set your screen brightness at less than 100-percent - try 80-percent to start with. Then, be sure Battery Charge Threshold is turned off. This power management setting should only be used when the laptop is plugged in all the time. It will prolong overall battery life by only charging the battery to 60-percent of capacity. You can turn off Battery Charge Threshold within the Lenovo Vantage APP installed on this computer. In Vantage select Battery Settings and turn off Battery Charge Threshold, if turned on. Also check what programs are running in the background on the computer. Be sure only the programs you want running in the background are. These programs will drain the battery. Here is a link to information about how to find out what programs are running in the background on your Windows 11 computer and how to manage them for better system performance: https://websiteforstudents.com/how-to-find-what-is-running-in-windows-11/. Then, finally, be sure any software you installed is compatible with Windows 11. Incompatible software will drain the battery at a faster rate. There is no need to install Microsoft Office software. The software is already part of the operating system, you just need to activate the software with a purchased product key. If you have installed a copy of Microsoft Office, this is conflicting with the existing copy on the system and this will slow your system down. If you have installed a 3rd party anti-virus program, be sure that Windows Defender is turned off and that the trial version of McAfee Anti-Virus software is uninstalled. There can only be one anti-virus program on the system. You may need to restore your system to original factory default settings if any of the programming errors have occurred. You can do that by typing "restore" in the Cortana search window. Just click on the magnifying glass icon at the bottom of your Windows 11 Desktop. Click on "Reset This PC" Then click on "Get Started" and follow the on screen directions to restore to factory defaults. If the problem persists, we recommend you contact Lenovo Tech Support at: 877-453-6686. Lenovo
