Lenovo Laptop Reviews

"So, they all look and smell alike, and you're probably thinking there's something special about the Lenovo IdeaPad S10e...So let's start with the stuff that could make the S10e stand out in a crowd...Unlike most 10-inch netbooks, Lenovo's S10e features a 16:9 screen, which means you get 1,024x576 pixels on 10.1 inches...There's plenty of contrast to go around, and the colours look good...There's next to no flex in the keyboard, and the touchpad buttons are pretty good..." read more »

"The screen itself suffers from an unpleasant ratio in contrast and an awkward viewing angle, making the Lenovo G530 not the best option for work that involves high levels of visual accuracy...By and large, the Lenovo G530 is a functional but low-end laptop, and nothing about it really tries to disguise that fact...the ethernet port is 10/100, and the OS included is 32-bit Windows Home Basic...For that subgroup of computer customers, a Lenovo G530 fills exactly the necessary needs, and at a terrific price at that..." read more »

"We took a first look at the SL400 to give you some idea of whether this laptop is right for you...The pricing on the SL400 starts at around $799...As it stands now, there are a number of reasons you might want to pick up an SL400 rather than a similar notebook from the Dell Vostro lineup or Toshiba Satellite Pro line..." read more »

"Lighter design than its predecessor...Superb keyboard and pointing stick...Bright LED screen...Multiple wireless antennas...Excellent battery life...Improved...Still no internal optical drive....The ThinkPad X200 Tablet ($2,323 direct) packs in many more refinements, such as a lighter chassis, a better speaker system, Intel Centrino 2 parts, and three choices of display panels offered in the widescreen format...If there's a tablet that can take the category..." read more »

"Inbuilt 3G > ULV Core 2 Duo > Lightweight > LED backlit screen...Standard graphics > Expensive...The ThinkPad X301 is still utilitarian in design, but the remarkably thin chassis and faultless high-quality finish combine to make it a lot more attractive than previous ThinkPads...The 13.3-inch screen is excellent, proving sharper than all but the Sony Vaio VGN-P11Z/R, and also more usable...Combined with the integrated GPU and LED backlighting, it..." read more »

"Built-in Wacom tablet > Powerful performance > Fantastic screen...Quite bulky > Cramped keyboard...The Lenovo W Series is a range of laptops aimed at the workstation market, with the Lenovo ThinkPad W700 (£3053 inc...A workstation needs a number of different factors in order to work properly...Fortunately, the W700 delivers across the board on all these...Overall, we found the performance of the ThinkPad W700 to be excellent......" read more »

"The Idea Pad Y550 by Lenovo is a glossy, big and plastic machine much different from the company’s sleek, understated business ThinkPad...The Idea Pad Y550 may not be a bargain, and it doesn’t contain the style of some of the competitor machines, but packs a solid bang for the buck certainly...In spite of these cons, the laptop makes for a solid device and packs plenty of punch and is available in a variety of configurations and range starting from $550 up to $1400 when fully loaded..." read more »

"The ThinkVantage Client Security Solution, provides an extra layer of protection for passwords, encryption keys and electronic credentials...With the Intel new 45nm based CPUs, they offer improved overall system performance, optimized for video editing and 2D/3D image design, and expanded power management compatibility for new levels of energy efficiency..." read more »

"Good battery life > Great screen > Excellent usability...Not great multimedia performance > Boring design > Some missing features...Lenovo's ThinkPad laptop range targets the corporate user, but of late the company has also tried to attract smaller businesses and regular consumers...The 15.4-inch screen doesn't feature a glossy Super-TFT coating and it's by far the best for use on the move...One thing that's the same between the SL500 and more expensive..." read more »
