  • Lenovo IdeaPad U310It's hard to argue against an Ultrabook starting at just $599 with Ivy Bridge options. Not only does the notebook provide a decently built aluminum chassis, it even looks better than many and has an overall presentation that would sugge...

  • Attractive exterior, Enjoyable keyboard, Excellent bang for your buck
  • Doesn't excel in any metric besides value, High-pitched fan noise at idle
  • Lenovo hasn't broken the mold with the U310. Instead, they've followed the standard Ultrabook recipe. Low-voltage processor? Check. Slim profile? Of course. Attractive exterior? Yep. Long(ish) battery life? Also present. The laptop does, however, have ...

  • The thicker, heavier design weighs a bit more than last year's U300s, and there aren't any SSD-only upgrade options
  • The Lenovo IdeaPad U310 is an all-around decent ultrabook that's perfectly priced for back-to-school shoppers, but there are plenty of alternatives with nearly identically prices and features....

  • Snappy waking from sleep, Looks great, Decent range of ports, Good keyboard
  • Not a great screen, Battery life a bit low, Stupid single, finger gestures, Flex in body
  • Compared to the laptops you'll find it next to in a PC shop, it may be that the fun looks are all that can make the Lenovo IdeaPad U310 stand out. It's not any worse than its low-priced Ultrabook peers, and the keyboard is good for those who want to do a...

  • Fast startup and shutdown, Battery life: 4 hrs 47 min, Quiet, Standard connectivity
  • The speakers need serious revision, Glossy screen with a mediocre image, Low gaming capabilities, Soso finishing
  • The IdeaPad U310's mediocre screen automatically limits its overall score to 3 stars. But it has other problems, too: poor speakers, very low processing power and issues with the finishing. In the same price range, the Sony Vaio T13 is a better deal....
