  Good find! In case anyone was interested in the i5/256GB version, it comes to $891.20 after the same coupon - https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NEW-Lenovo-81X1002FAU-IdeaPad-Fl…

    Probably worth the extra money to get the i5 with the bigger ssd.

      Guess it depends on the use-case, the i3 would probably be a good choice if you weren't going to multitask that much and mostly word processing. Otherwise the i5 is a great all-rounder. Like OP said - shame there aren't a lot of the Ryzen ones going around!

      Amazon US had the ryzen 4500U version for $870, I think the RRP pricing in Aus was $1200 same as i5 but better battery and performance.

      Ideally I would have grabbed that one with afterpay discount but sadly it's out of stock everywhere :(

      Different model. This one is i3 version.

      EDIT:

      Looks like the i3 version also supports usb c charging as per Techradar:

      The supplied charger is a barrel type rather than USB-C despite the fact that the Flex 5 has a USB-C port that supports charging

        Check my link. According to Lenovo, USB C charger is compatible with that model. Flex 5 can be charged using USB C or barrel.

          @trex: Thanks for clarifying this as it is never clear cut when there is a barel port as well as usb C port

          ( have to check usb c spec which can be elusive at times ).

          @trex: This is actually quite useful where you need to free the usb c for fast data transfer you can charge the laptop with the barrel power adapter

          @trex: How good is the screen? Is it 250 nits or higher?

            @[Deactivated]: According to this article it is max 250 nits. To me, the screen is bright and very comfortable to work with. I usually set the brightness to 40% or lower. Anything too bright just reduces the battery time and gives too much glare.

            I like the Flex 5 alot. Find it very handy to use in tablet mode. My Flex 5 (AMD version) came with an active pen. Watch the videos on youtube for Flex 5 review.

  Soldered RAM and storage?

    seanbaussie on 19/03/2021 - 18:23

    Wondering too.

      In this Flex 5 (AMD), RAM is soldered. I don't believe storage is soldered since it's a NVMe SSD.
