What are people's views on this vs the Flex 5 from Amazon @$600? Ideally I'd like 16gb of ram, but screen quality is important too (ips is a must) Is the Ideapad 5 a more premium model than a flex 5?...

It's increased to $520 which is still pretty hot. But I'm waiting for it to go back down to OP price of $500. Argh!

8gb RAM seriously is fine for most people, even if you do light gaming or multitasking. Seriously. Just don't keep 27 tabs open in Chrome or do video editing and you'll be fine.

Bottom is plastic and the lid/screen is aluminum. From personal experience, build quality for the IdeaPad 5 is pretty good and it feels solid to me.
