  • Review of the Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 14 (2020) packed with an AMD Ryzen 5 4500 U Processor. This 2-in-1 convertible only costs $589 USD but manages to beat out a bunch of premium laptops that retail for double the price! Watch for the full review.

    I got one about a week ago and so far it's been great. Pretty good battery life, very good performance, I love the keyboard (it's no Thinkpad keyboard, but still love it for long typing sessions), great price, etc, etc. I would like to also note that you mentioned that the pen is optional. It may be different in Canada, but for those buying in the US it ships with the pen, which is a nice little bonus. Also to note, the $599 version on Amazon shipped with 16GB of RAM.

    Im writing this on my Flex 14. I cannot fault it in any way considering the price.
    - The keyboard is the best ive ever used
    - The battery is stellar
    - I always use it in Battery Saving Mode, even while playing light games - ive yet to hear the fan, and the laptop is cool.
    - It flies through every task
    - 8gb ram seems sufficient
    The screen is on the dim side, but its way less of an issue than i thought it would be.

If the brightness is too low even if you crank it all the way up remember you can boost it in the AMD Radeon settings app. Thx for the tip on Alt + Q I hadn't discovered it using Vantage yet.
    Oh, and my stickers are also crooked. Get on the ball sticker guy! Cheers.

It has most of features of a premium ultrabook (all metal build, 10th gen processors, gtx 1650, etc..) but starts at a much lower price. But it's hard to find a good review for it in YT.

    Hey Matt! I bought the ThinkBook 15 and... it has no precision drivers on it and I can't swap them! So I returned it... I'm looking at the Flex 15, do you know if that model has precision drivers as well ?
