Looks a good deal except for the SSD being TLC (Low Endurance & less write cycles). RAM is soldered.
Would have preferred a NVMe SSD.

This does come with a NVMe interface SSD.

Official Specs:
https://psref.lenovo.com/Detail/I...82Y0000JUS

"Storage
512GB SSD M.2 2242 PCIe® 4.0x4 NVMe®"

TLC is very common, is same type as high end gaming Lenovos, and in real world very little writing is done on these after installations so endurance should not be an issue.

Would you say this is a good choice for a 7th grader to do online classes, write papers, watch you tube, surf web, email, etc. he wants to game and I know this isn't a gaming laptop but we have a Xbox and switch for those times.

No. Terrible choice if gaming is the goal.

Good. I'm not in the market for a gaming laptop. Again just something he can get through junior high n high school with.

Is it worth the extra $100 for the ryzen 7 7730U version? Everything else looks identical.

I have an older Yoga 920, battery life is suffering.

I bought the Flex 5i on a whim. Aside from it being heavier than I expected, I'm debating on whether to keep it or not, and just replace the swelling battery in my 920.

Thoughts?
