5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT Laptop!, October 20, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Lenovo U400 099329U 14.0-Inch Laptop (Graphite Grey) (Personal Computers)
I had this laptop for about a few weeks now. I've been waiting for it to be available since it was announced. I'm sure a lot of buyers will want this laptop because it's basically a Window Macbook. And that is exactly what you get. I am also a mac owner, the quality is on par with Macbooks. This is a very pretty laptop and spec are pretty decent. On the pictures, the shade of silver looks very similar to the macbooks, but it actually a dark slate gray.

Pros -
-Laptop stays cool. It vents from the side, I've had it on for 14 hours once and it was stayed very cool.
-Chiclet keyboard feels really nice.
-Glass trackpad is on par with macbooks.
-Battery last around 6-7 hours.
-Light weight.

Cons -
-Don't really have any beside that I would had preferred an SSD option and Lenovo should make accessories for this laptop already! And I really wanted the Black/Clementine Orange color, but it's only available for the U300s.

5.0 out of 5 stars How to HARDWARE UPGRADE, November 28, 2011
This review is from: Lenovo U400 099329U 14.0-Inch Laptop (Graphite Grey) (Personal Computers)
[Update - Review]
Okay, I've had this laptop for about 2 weeks now, It's time for the review.
I'll start off with - This is a very nice laptop.

-Performance- 3/5 [Average]
Very powerful specs. This laptop may not be a gaming laptop, but will play most things you throw at it very well.

-Build- 5/5 [Excellent]
All in all, its built very well. The exterior, as you can see, is beautiful.

-Keyboard- 4/5 [Good]
The keyboard looks and feels very nice. The keyboard is slightly narrower than usual, which makes it feel a little awkward. But I haven't had any problems typing.

-Trackpad- 3/5 [Average]
The track pad is beautiful. It's very large and sensitive, which makes it an issue when you are typing and accidentally move and click your cursor (A problem I had with my old laptop that had a much smaller trackpad). However, you get this lovely little button that turns off your trackpad. :D
You have to be careful... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Pretty amazing laptop, November 18, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Lenovo U400 099329U 14.0-Inch Laptop (Graphite Grey) (Personal Computers)
This thing is pretty amazing!

I needed a new laptop after having my previous one for 4 years. I love windows (not that I have anything against Mac OS, just don't prefer it), but I wanted something with the build quality of a mac book pro but a lower price tag. I was really considering getting a mbp, until I saw this laptop. If you are in the same boat as me, then this is the perfect laptop for you. All aluminum body, extremely sturdy look and feel, very sleek design, I would say it matches up perfectly with the mbp but at $300 less.

The thing runs extremely fast. The 2nd generation mobile i series is catching up to the power of the desktop versions. I really don't notice a difference between this laptop and my i5 desktop tower as far as responsiveness. Trust me, performance is not an issue for this laptop. It can handle anything that you can throw at it (obviously that's an exaggeration, but anything reasonable that you can throw at a laptop it can do). It also... Read more
