Editorial note

The Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 2 stands out for its versatility of use, thanks to its touchscreen and convertible design, offering an optimal balance between work and entertainment. Equipped with a 4th generation Intel® Core™ i5 processor and 8 GB of RAM, it ensures reliable performance, although the maximum memory may prove insufficient for users with intensive multitasking needs. However, the battery life, limited to 6 hours, can be problematic during prolonged use without access to a power outlet. Additionally, weighing 2313 g, this laptop is relatively heavy, which may make it less convenient to carry for some users. In terms of value for money, the Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 2 offers a storage capacity of 500 GB, which is satisfactory given its overall performance. Nevertheless, the lack of USB 3.2 ports and an optical drive is a drawback for those seeking fast connections or needing to read CDs/DVDs. Finally, although connectivity is complete with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, the Windows 8.1 operating system, now outdated, may require an update to benefit from the latest features and improved security. Overall, the Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 2 is a wise choice for users looking for a versatile device, provided they take its limitations into account.
