With up to 13th Gen Intel® Core™ i7 CPUs engineered explicitly for thin and light laptops. Multiple cores deliver the power to run multiple apps seamlessly and simultaneously with total confidence that your IdeaPad Flex 5i Gen 8 16" will stay cool and silent, no matter what you throw at it.

360 degrees of freedom—so you can conquer any scenario
The IdeaPad Flex 5i Gen 8 16" matches your flow of work, play, and collaboration. Rotate into tent or stand mode for entertainment and presentations, or tablet mode for life on the go. The rugged drop-down hinge even raises the keyboard to a more comfortable typing position and covers the bottom display bezel, increasing the screen-to-body ratio for a more immersive display.

You’ve never seen colour like this before
Entertainment comes vibrantly to life with a 16:10 screen with narrow bezels for an impressive greater-than-90% screen-to-body ratio.

Super-fast charging and connectivity—more productivity and fun
Ready for a faster charging PC? The IdeaPad Flex 5i Gen 8 16" gives you two hours of battery life in just 15 minutes on rapid charge. Connect up to two 4K monitors with Thunderbolt™ 4.0 universal connectivity, which offers a compatible dock and super-fast data transfers. A fingerprint login ensures security, and an optional Lenovo Digital Pen helps you take notes or sketch.

AI that continually fine-tunes performance
Lenovo’s AI engine utilises machine learning to enhance your device’s performance. Our algorithm never stops fine-tuning the variables. It deploys power modes to seamlessly switch between Quiet, Balance, and Performance by matching your workflow—giving you the optimum balance between performance and battery life.

Stylish—from the chassis up
The IdeaPad Flex 5i Gen 8 16″ revolves around a convertible chassis engineered with a 360° hinge. The ultrathin body makes this workhorse perfect for on-the-go sessions while weighing an incredibly light 2.1 kg. The sleek casing has an optional metal cover and is available in Arctic Grey.
