Still up in the air over which kind of tablet device you want to purchase? Well, fret not – there is the Lenovo IdeaPad A1 that has just opened up its doors for your pre-order pleasure – and this is the smaller sibling to the IdeaPad K1 just in case you were wondering. 2GB of storage space will cost you $199, while throw in another $50 and you get eight times (that’s 16GB just in case your calculator is broken) the amount of internal memory. Surely it is a no-brainer as to which model to pick up, right?

I guess regardless of the capacity and price, some folks do not mind having their tablet run on a non-tablet optimized version of the Android operating system – specifically Gingerbread. After all, times are hard, but at $199, why not consider the Amazon Kindle Fire instead? You might be able to gain more from that model considering the number of pre-orders it has already racked up.

This Android 2.3 Gingerbread-powered tablet will feature a 7? display at 1,024 x 600 resolution, and a single-core 1GHz processor, in either black or white colors.

Lenovo Ideapad U400, U300 – Macbook Pros Cousins

Lenovo Ideapad U400, U300 window.fbAsyncInit = function() { FB.init({ appId : '139683546053659', status : true, // check login status cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access the session xfbml : true // parse XFBML }); }; (function() { var e = document.createElement('script'); e.src = document.location.protocol + '//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js'; e.async = true; document.getElementById('fb-root').appendChild(e); }()); Network:Ubergizmo English, French, SpanishUberphones Subscribe to RSS Ubergizmo ReviewsMobileGamingAndroidAppleComputersGadgetsConceptsPhoto/Video |  Jobs Contact About Home > Breaking > Lenovo Ideapad U400, U300 – Macbook Pros Cousins Lenovo Ideapad U400, U300 – Macbook Pros Cousins Hubert Nguyen 09/01/2011 09:00 PDT The Lenovo U400 is a 14” (1366×768) laptop and the latest addition to Lenovo’s line of thin and light computers. It features a new design which Lenovo calls “book-shaped” that has a shell completely made of Aluminum, hence the “Macbook Pro” look (which is great).  At 4.36lbs it is light compared to other 13” or 14” competitors, but it may not the lightest 14” of its category.

Inside, you can choose between a second generation Core i3, i5 or i7, add up to 1TB storage AND a 64GB SSD. The memory maxes out at 4GB (6GB would have been a dream…) but you’ve got an internal drive and speakers that look decent. Interestingly, Lenovo estimates the battery life to 7hrs (in standard depletion mode, with display on), which is not bad at all for this type of computer. It is probably best to wait for the independent tests, however.I’m anxious to see what the display and the keyboards feel like. I was very impressed by the Lenovo X1 keyboard, but I was a bit disappointed by its display. Hopefully, the U400 will be fantastic on both fronts. We’ll have to wait and see.

If you prefer a slightly smaller form-factor, the Lenovo U300 is very similar to the U400, except that it uses a 13” display (same resolution), weighs only 3.5lbs (wow!) but has a slightly shorter estimated battery life (6hrs).

The Lenovo U300 and U400 computers look great, and we’re anxious to see if the details are as good as the overall picture. And I left the most interesting part for the end: the pricing starts at $799 (U300) and $849 (U400). So, what do you think?

Lenovo IdeaPad U300s – A Terrific Design

Lenovo Ideapad U300s window.fbAsyncInit = function() { FB.init({ appId : '139683546053659', status : true, // check login status cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access the session xfbml : true // parse XFBML }); }; (function() { var e = document.createElement('script'); e.src = document.location.protocol + '//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js'; e.async = true; document.getElementById('fb-root').appendChild(e); }()); Network:Ubergizmo English, French, SpanishUberphones Subscribe to RSS Ubergizmo ReviewsMobileGamingAndroidAppleComputersGadgetsConceptsPhoto/Video |  Jobs Contact About Home > Breaking > Lenovo IdeaPad U300s – A Terrific Design Lenovo IdeaPad U300s – A Terrific Design Hubert Nguyen 09/01/2011 09:00 PDT

With the Ideapad U300s, Lenovo is entering Ultrabook territory in style. “Ultrabook” is a platform for uber-light computers that Intel has been promoting recently and the U300s is part of the first generation of Ultrabooks. At 14.9mm thick, it is thinner than the Macbook Air and weights a comparable 2.91lbs. The design of the Ideapad U300s is terrific. It looks clean from any and every angle.

When closed, the edges are clean, and none of the ports look out of place. Even the backside of the Lenovo U300s looks great. When fully opened, the ultra-thin display impresses, and the Lenovo keyboard seems comfortable as it has full-size arrow keys (which I dearly miss on my Macbook Air).

I haven’t been able to try the keyboard yet, but the glass touchpad seems very interesting and comfortable as well. I wonder if the trackpad drivers and gestures commands are good. There are only two USB ports, but this is not really unheard of in this category.

There is more than meet the eye: the U300s has no air intake for cooling. Instead, it draws cool air from the “breathable keyboard”. This is an idea from Intel called Intel Advanced Cooling Technology, and Lenovo says that with it, the laptop says cool even when left on soft surface like pillows.

You can opt for a Core i5 or Core i7 processor, 4GB (max) of memory and up to 256GB of SSD storage. In terms of battery life, Lenovo expects to get 8 hours under the best conditions (a basic depletion test with screen on), but we can’t wait to try it for ourselves.

The Lenovo Ideapad U300s is a very interesting Ultrabook, and I think that Lenovo should have differentiated it more by creating a new name, instead of just adding “s”. Some people may confuse it with the Ideapad U300… As of late Lenovo has been doing well, and the U300s design is impressive. Keep it on your radar.
