I had a hinge issue with mine, right after it went out of warranty. Lenovo feels like
a solid build when you get it. It was hands down, the worst laptop I have ever owned, and I am not hard on my laptops.

But your comment when combined with the other person comment about have a lifetime warranty is basically telling people, don't worry with Costco because you can return it at any time. Besides just not being ture for every store, it's also gonna ruin it for other people when Costco decides to have an even shorter and stricter return policy, like Sam's. Remember, there was a time when there was no date limit on return policy for ALL items but it was abused and here we are.

Nice deal, this will be perfect for most people that don't really do intensive tasks on their laptops.

I was wondering the same. Assuming the same screen, I saw the Ryzen in store and was pleasantly surprised how bright the 300 nits showed at all angles even in the bright store and with a reflective screen (normal with touchscreens). Seems like neither model is particularly better considering they're both business/school use level machines, so maybe just save the $150 this weekend.

Looks like hinge issue might be better now, but might be a gamble. https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Leno...-p/5143738 (see last page where a person notes their newer one has a more robust hinge with an extra screw hold).

Costco purchase FTW... Looks like they're covering repair when Lenovo won't.l, for 2 years from purchase anyway.

I went to the store today and that's my observation .. screen is really crisp comparing to other 1080p laptops

When you buy from Costco it carries a life time warranty essentially LOL

I can't decide between this or the Ryzen 7 5700U with 2.2K display for $50 more ($500).

You need to read the reviews before minimizing this issue. My son had a gaming Dell laptop, almost never left his desk and just got opened and closed once or twice a day, and the hinge cracked on that. Flex 5 reviews on at least most 2021 and 2022 models are people with light usage for 3 months... 6 months... And still having cracked hinges that essentially destroy the computer.

Contrast that with my 2 in 1 Dell Inspiron 13 that is still fine 7 years later, but the CPU is showing its age so trying to find a replacement and wondering if this Lenovo is right for me.

Why are the reviews not good? Is this laptop worth it for kids to play PC games?
