Why you should buy the Lenovo Flex 5i Chromebook
For anyone even remotely interested in Chromebooks, the Flex 5i practically sells itself. We scored it an 8/10 in our review, and it’s our current Editor’s Choice pick in both ourBest ChromebooksandBest Chromebooks for Studentsroundups. It doesn’t do anything exceptionally well, or have a single standout feature — it just kind of does everything you need it to, with ease. The touch-sensitive display lets you quickly switch from laptop to tablet mode, and the hinge is sturdy enough that you’re able to set the screen to your preferred viewing angle for typing or binging. The keyboard is backlit and offers great tactile feedback, and the upwards-facing dual speakers sound better than their downward-facing counterparts.
This deal is specifically for the Core i3 version of the Lenovo Flex 5i, which in addition to that solid Intel Core i3-1115G4 dual-core processor, comes equipped with 8GB of RAM and 128GB storage. If you need more room, there is a 256GB model available, but the 30% discount on the 128GB version puts it right in the sweet spot of price and functionality. Both models include two USB-C ports, a single USB-A port, a microSD card reader, and an audio jack. They also support the fast and reliable Wi-Fi 6 protocol, and Bluetooth 5.1 for wireless accessories.
Again, there are muchcheaper Chromebooksavailable, for those on a budget, and far more powerful Chromebooks for those looking for a dedicated gaming machine. But for everyone in between, the Flex 5i is a great option. Get one, while you still can, at this price.
