IdeaPad 5 2-in-1-2024 - Professional Laptop - Fingerprint Sensor - 16" WUXGA IPS Display - 16GB Memory - 512GB SSD Storage - AMD Ryzen™ 7 8845HS - Windows 11 Home -Luna Grey

I bought with many doubts because of comments here. I choosed the most powerfull 16GB 512SDD and Rysen 7700, 16" screen... 1) The quality materials are rights 2) The speed boot is awesome (10 seconds) 3) The fingerprint reader and backlight keyboard works perfect and they are awesome 4) The performance overall it's great (I need to test the embebed video yet with a game) 5) The screen it's really good. Excelent definition BUT a little bit reflective and perhaps need a little bit more NITS if you think to use outside. 6) The model that I've choosed it's toooo heavy but, I selected a 16" because this one it's not gonna be my mobile laptop 7) The HD Camera is soso, I have a Dell Latitude 9000 series too for work and the diference between this HD (works like 380 and not 720p) It's a lot vs the 1080p Camera of the Latitude. BUT this was not important for me 8) USC C work awesome. I've and external extreme SSD and works at 700MB/s I was impressive about that. 9) The keyboard and touchpad feeling are ok. So... I'm extremly happy of this selection.

I LOVE this computer! I’m a nursing student and it went beyond my expectations for what I needed. The folding mode is great for watching slideshows and tracing pictures of anatomy. The battery lasts for a full school day easily and charges super quickly once plugged in. The backlit keyboard is useful in dark settings, especially as someone who often studies in dimly lit environments. This computer is insanely fast and renders even the largest files with ease. Not only that, it’s actually a great little gaming laptop, too. I’ve played several games with complicated graphics (Destiny 2, Marvel Rivals, COD, Dead by Daylight) with zero issues. It’s a little awkward playing with the keyboard, but that might just be personal preference. Controller connectivity works great for that on this PC though! Overall, I would 100% recommend this computer to anyone who asked. It was worth every penny I spent on it.

Purchased the Ideapad Flex 5 16" R7-512GB laptop version while it was on sale on Prime Day for $699. So far I am overall happy with this unit. The screen quality is very good for a lower to mid budget laptop and colors are vibrant enough. Touchscreen works great as well. I like the idea of the flexibility of changing between laptop mode and tablet mode. The 16" screen size in tablet mode is great for watching movies and other random entertaining things, but if your goal is to use it for note taking or similar, it is a little on the larger side and would recommend the 14" instead. My main purpose is to use it for travels and remote work via remote desktop, so the additional real estate on the screen was important for me for my engineering work (CAD and programming). Since I also have a need for multiple monitors when stationary, I went ahead and also purchased a cheap off-brand USB-C docking station from Falwedi on Amazon. I was able to expand to at least 2 additional monitors, resulting in a triple monitor setup, one 24" Dell 1080 and another 27" Dell 2K. I did however get some issues where the external monitors would blank for a second or two occasionally, but not yet sure if this was due to the current drivers on the Ideapad or the off-brand docking station. Something I will need to investigate further at a later time. Sound quality from the speakers is just ok. There is no base, which I wouldn't expect from a lower budget laptop anyways. The camera worked decently and clear, which is sufficient for most video conferences anyways. The fingerprint reader works flawlessly and makes login into Windows and other biometric supporting apps super easy. I am however surprised on how heavy this unit is for being a new modern 16" model. Reminds me of my 10+ year old Toshiba brick. Another drawback is that the pen or stylus was not included with it and is sold separately. There is no ethernet port and for those that want to utilize wired connections, will need to purchase an additional dongle.

Really good laptop for the price. Minor knocks for a less than ideal battery life, even in battery saver. The SSD is an M.2 NVME 2242, not the longer, more typical, 2280. Some people have had the drive that came with the system fail, so it's worth knowing. Also Torx screws instead of Philips. The only replaceable options are the storage and the WiFi module. At the price point, not taking off any stars. It runs Pop!_OS (PopOS Linux LTS 24.04) without issue out of the box. I had to disable secure boot in the bios (F2/Fn+F2) and was able to boot from USB (F12/Fn+F12) in order to install. The install went smoothly, and all the hardware seems to be working without issue. Note: I haven't configured the fingerprint reader, that will likely require a bit of tinkering, but I don't use it. I didn't even boot the Windows install once, so can't speak for the configuration there. Linux is running solid for me. The speed is perfectly acceptable, as are pretty much any recent AMD CPUs with 6+ cores (there are 8 cores, 16 threads for the 8845hs). While this is priced above what would typically be considered a "value" model (sub-$600) it's definitely one of the best values you can get in a sub-$1000 laptop. At just under $700, definitely worth it and likely worth another $150-200 for a good 2-4tb NVME 2242 drive to replace the 512gb included, just invest in a good Torx screwdriver kit. LTT or iFixIt should both work for you.

Der Touchpad hat nicht immer funktioniert, habe den mehr mals aktualisiert aber hat nichts geändert. Habe versucht den Laptop mehrmals zurückzuschicken, es hat aber leider nicht geklappt, habe jetzt einen defekten Laptop und kein Geld.(
