The Lenovo Flex 5i 14 has an attractive entry-level price when on sale. But in the reviewed configuration, its battery life, display, and build hold it back.
Lenovo Flex 5i 14 MSRP $800.00 Score Details “The Lenovo Flex 5i 14 has solid performance for productivity users, but its battery life and display quality aren't good enough.” Pros Cons I always want to cheer for midrange laptops that come in at an attractive price point. I know a laptop under $1,000 won’t have all the bells and whistles of more premium options, but I’m always hopeful these types of laptops can balance price and quality.
As we’ll see, the entry-level model is much more attractive at its sale price of $550, while the $800 configuration has some stiff competition. Finally, the hinge is quite stiff, which is great for holding the display in tent, media, and tablet modes but forces you to use two hands to open the lid. All in all, it’s not a terrible build at $550, but it falls short when you compare it to some other laptops in the $800 range like the Asus ZenBook 14 OLED.
The webcam runs at 1080p, which is great for a laptop in this price range but increasingly common. It provided a decent image for videoconferencing. There’s no infrared camera for Windows 11 Hello facial recognition, but the fingerprint reader embedded in the palm rest works fine. With a low-power CPU and an FHD+ IPS display, you’d hope for competitive battery life. The battery capacity is a bit small at just 52.5 watt-hours, though, which isn’t a lot for a 14-inch laptop.
