In our Lenovo Chromebook Flex 5 review, we loved its flexible 2-in-1 design, touch screen with pen support and exceptional keyboard. We are also fans of its webcam privacy shutter. We gave the Lenovo Chromebook Flex 5 an overall rating of 4 out of 5 stars. 

When it comes to performance, the Chromebook Flex is well suitable for multitasking. In one test, we launched 31 Google Chrome browser tabs with two streaming 1080p YouTube videos. Alongside these running tasks, we opened up Google Docs and the Chromebook never stuttered or slowed down. 

With a weight of 2.97 pounds and measuring 2.2 x 8.3 x 0.7 inches, the  Chromebook Flex 5 is on par with its competitors. It's slightly lighter than the HP Chromebook x360 12b (2.98 pounds) and Asus Chromebook Flip C434 (3.1 pounds).

For your connectivity needs, the Chromebook Flex 5 supplies you with two USB Type-C ports and a USB Type-A port. It also has a headset jack as well as a microSD card slot for easy file transfers and storage.

At $130 off, the Lenovo Chromebook Flex 5 is an incredible value. It's a solid choice if you're in the market for an affordable 2-in-1 laptop.
