 There may be some applications where the AMD CPU will catch up with the Intel one, but I can't find it. The performance hit when running on battery is an even bigger issue.

Look for any of the newest models that use the 11th gen Intel chips if you want the best performance.

I was seriously disappointed in the performance of the CM5 and the Ryzen 5 processor. I even opened 4 windows with the Octane 2 benchmark running - the Intel was still faster. There may be some applications where the AMD CPU will catch up with the Intel one, but I can't find it. The performance hit when running on battery is an even bigger issue

<div class="md">Been looking into buying a Chromebook for school and for when I&#39;m away from the computer. I&#39;ve been looking at the Asus CX5 and the Lenovo Thinkpad C13. I&#39;m not sure which processor is better suited for some intensive tasks like running Blender.
</div>

Trying to decide on my first Chromebook.

It is 79,000 yen (around $850 U.S) and it will serve my purpose of having a reliable chromebook for a least 5 year or more. Plus the I could also play games on it as well as web browsing etc. 

Before I buy, Any advice ??

 on other Google products. Yes, this portion of the review is likely not going to be limited to the Flip CM5, and that's why the review is docked to only 3 stars and not 2. In addition, I'm still able to use browser-based Google Drive, but it still shouldn't be any kind of issue. But shouldn't the baseline be that Google apps run seamlessly on Google OSes (Android and Chrome)? Forgive me for expecting Google products to interact well with each other

 As such, when my old word processor laptop finally breathed its last symbolic breath, I opted for the switch. Unfortunately, however, my first impressions ~2 weeks in are not particularly high. Before making the purchase, I appropriately did my research. During that time, I was continually thrown back at how low basic performance specs, only to be assuaged by (sponsored, bought and likely fake) tech reviews of how Chrome OS doesn't need all the fancy schmancy high RAM and CPU processing power because

. it's Chrome OS! I knew better, but when budget constraints were accounted for, there were not any truly viable options of reliable brand + desired features + desired performance specs in my price range. Something had to give and it ended up being the performance specs. Out-of-the box, the device consistently hangs when loading basic, basic things

 Something had to give and it ended up being the performance specs. Out-of-the box, the device consistently hangs when loading basic, basic things. I'm not attempting to run anything remotely intensive and there is still that consistent pause that isn't there in similarly-priced (non-bloatware-filled) Windows devices -- let alone anything running Linux (MacOS excluded because of price-point). This is entirely because of the industry standard to short consumers on specs

Unnecessarily low performance specs and horrible selection of Play Store apps for Chromebooks

 It performs really well. Battery life is great. Display is very good. Everything you'd expect from a fairly high spec machine

Great looking machine but...

Asus Chromebook Flip CM5 review: A stealthy, sturdy AMD laptop with a big display

 A $500 configuration of the CM5 is available, but it drops to a slightly slower Ryzen 3 processor, 4GB of memory and 64GB of slower eMMC flash memory for storage. That configuration would still be fine for general use, but spending the extra $100 if you can gets you a much better Chromebook. The CM5 is big but still fairly slim.

11ax (Wi-Fi 6) wireless, you get a lag-free streaming experience. It's Asus' first Chromebook with an AMD processor and graphics with performance that falls between models we've tested with 10th-gen Intel Core i3 and Core i5 processors. The configuration I tested will first be available from Costco sometime in August for $600. That price converts to about £434 and AU$813

Wirecutter

With excellent performance for its low price, a great keyboard and trackpad, and a compact, light body, the Lenovo Flex 5 is the Chromebook to buy.

With excellent performance for its low price, a great keyboard and trackpad, and a compact, light body, the Lenovo Chromebook Flex 5 is the Chromebook to buy.

Consumer Reports

This 13.3-inch convertible has an Intel Celeron processor, 4GB of memory, and 64GB of flash storage. Performance is midrange but solid for the price.
Our testers noted that while the 11.5-hour battery life for web browsing is below average compared with the competition, it’s still long enough to get through the average workday (and then some) without too much worry.

RTINGS

Our best budget pick is the Lenovo Chromebook Flex 5 (2020). Like our mid-range pick, it's also a 13-inch 2-in-1 Chromebook. It feels well built even though it's entirely plastic and very portable, thanks to its thin and light design. The display gets bright enough for use in most indoor settings, the keyboard feels good to type on, and the touchpad is reasonably large, albeit not very accurate. It's available with an Intel Celeron or 10th Gen. Core i3 CPU; both are fast enough to provide a smooth desktop experience on Chrome OS. You just have to be mindful of the number of apps running simultaneously because you can only get 4GB of memory. As for the battery life, it lasts a little over seven hours, so you'll have to plug it in for a quick charge at some point. There's no biometric for fast logins, and sadly, it can't output to an external monitor.

It is, however, a bit on the large side as 13-inch Chromebooks go, at 0.7 inches thick and a weight just under three pounds. (It’s just slightly lighter than the Spin 713.) That makes it a bit heavy to hold as a tablet for long periods of time, and you’ll want something smaller if you’re looking for a device you won’t notice in your backpack

 The 45W adapter took an hour to juice the laptop’s battery up to just 54 percent with light Chrome use.

Lenovo Flex 5 Chromebook review: midrange done right

 As a comparison, my Samsung phone with one tiny speaker is much, much louder and clearer than this Chromebook. Makes no sense - the two speaker grills on the front could easily support larger, louder, better quality speakers. What would it cost them, a dollar? Two? Lenovo, come on now,  Overall I really like this Chromebook. It serves most of my needs, is quick, simple to use, light, good for scrolling the internet, good for watching movies (but as mentioned, the volume is low, so it would be a challenge to play for a group in a room), the battery is pretty good - never ran out of battery

 3. Size: Small footprint without feeling like you are sacrificing anything in the display or keyboard. 4. Cost: At this price point, the Flex is hard to beat

 4. Cost: At this price point, the Flex is hard to beat. 5. Responsiveness: In my use (writing and surfing the web), the Chromebook has been very snappy, with no lag

 If you’re expecting tablet-like weight, you will be disappointed because it is considerably heavier than a tablet. Personally, I would rather have a well constructed Chromebook like this one than a flimsy, light one.

Excellent build quality, keyboard and screen. (Review after two months of steady use.)
