That’s it for the new Chromebooks from Lenovo. The IdeaPad Flex 3i Chromebook (15”, 7) will start at $399.99 and is expected to be available starting May 2022. Check out the details of the new Flex 3i. Both the Celeron and Pentium CPUs have proven themselves to have more than enough power for moderate tasks and should perform admirably for general use. This Chromebook will be a great option for users wanting a larger display but don’t want to spend a king’s ransom on a premium device. The Flex 5i is USI compatible and features 2 x 2W Stereo Speakers by MaxxAudio®. Lenovo has also added a 1080p webcam which should be an answered prayer for countless users as 720p webcams are the worst and it’s time for PC makers to do better. This is going to raise the base price of the Flex 5i but I think that it will be well worth it when you look at everything this device offers.Īpart from the new display, the Chromebook Flex 5i will come with up to a 12th Gen Intel Core Core i5, up to 8GB of RAM, and up to 512GB of storage. Instead of a 13.3″ panel, the new Flex 5i comes bearing a 14″ 16:10 FHD display. WIN! The brightness isn’t the only upgrade. The all-new 12th Gen Flex 5i departs from its predecessors by bringing a new display offering that starts at 300 nits and goes up to an option 400 nit panel. A gripe that we have shouted for the rooftops for years, it seems that Lenovo has finally heard our cries. The only real drawback of these models was the mediocre 250 nit display. Compared to other flagships, the Flex 5 line has always been a hundred dollars or so less than the competition. The biggest selling point has always been the price. Previous iterations of the Flex 5 and Flex 5i have come in the form of a 13.3″ convertible and for the most part, have been very solid devices. The latest addition to the Flex family of Chromebooks, the newest Flex 5i brings 12th Gen Intel processors but there’s much more to this convertible than just some new silicon.
