Our Flex 5 produced 260 nits of brightness during our testing, which put it below the Chromebook average of 294 nits. The Asus Chromebook CX9 led our group with 78.8%, followed by the HP Chromebook x2 (71%) and the Acer Chromebook 7 15 (44.5%). I was surprised to learn that the Flex 5 covered a disappointing 47% of the DCI-P3 color gamut during our testing, which is below the 64.8% Chromebook average. It felt good to slink off to my backyard on a warm fall day and watch more episodes than I care to admit. The Flex 5 did a solid job reproducing the saturated imagery with solid crispness and clarity. On the right, you have a USB Type-C port, and a Kensington lock. The Flex 5 arrives with a decent assortment of ports for a Chromebook to connect your favorite peripherals. Just remember to hit the lock key on the upper right hand of the keyboard if you’re getting up and will be away from the Flex 5. From there, I can unlock the Flex 5 so that is pretty secure. To open my phone, I need to use a fingerprint scan or facial recognition. However, I found the option of using an Android phone to unlock my computer to be a new favorite. There is a webcam shutter to provide security when you’re done with video calls, and although I searched every inch of the unit, there is no fingerprint scanner to speak of. The HP Chromebook x 2 weighed in at 2.6 pounds, measured 9.54 x.46 x 0.3-inches, obviously being our most petite Chromebook followed by the Acer Chromebook 7 which measured in at 14.4 x 9.8 x 0.7-inches and weighed 3.8 pounds. The Asus CX 9 was our most svelte Chromebook coming in at 2.5 pounds and measuring 12.7 x 8.1 x 0.7-inches. Measuring 12.20 x 8.4 x 0.67 inches and weighing 2.9 pounds, the Flex 5 is not the lightest system in our Chromebooks test group.
