Abstract: You’d have to actively be avoiding the tech media over the past several months not to have heard about Ultrabooks. Their coming has garnered a boatload of buzz, fueled in no small part by Intel’s $300 million fund to get hardware and software makers ...
Thin and light, even by ultrabook standards, Strong Core i7 performance, Bump-resistant SSD, Long battery life, Aluminum chassis, Surprising audio fidelity
Too expensive, No memory-card slot, Port selection is only basic
The U300s delivers on the ultrabook promise of a take-anywhere laptop that doesn't compromise speed or battery life. But the Core i7 CPU and 256GB SSD in our test unit drives up the price too far for most users. Read More...
Good keyboard, Excellent performance, Sleek design,
Flexible chassis, No media card reader,
The IdeaPad U300s is a solid entry into the Ultrabook market; it's mostly successful but stumbles in a few noticeable areas. While I like the design, the chassis is too easy to flex, which leads to some concerns about long-term reliability. The screen is nothing special with barely adequate picture quality.

No matter which way you cut it, the U300s is a pricey laptop, though only moderately more so than the similarly configured competition. It's available in a slower, less capacious configuration with a Core i5-2457M CPU and a 128GB SSD for around £900, ...
Solid construction, solid performance, solid feature set. Keyboard is as good as it gets on an ultrabook. OneKey rescue button to restore/rebuild the laptop is a neat idea — but do we really need a standalone, physical button on the side for this? It's th
What's up with the backlighting? Minimal port selection, with USB ports on opposite sides of the machine. Weak clickpad
Velvety looks and feel, Great keyboard and touchpad for an ultrabook
No Etherent or SDHC card slot, A little pricey for its performance level
The U300s ameliorates its high price and slightly slow performance with a classy and very usable design. Images (click to enlarge) Lenovo IdeaPad U300s: Light, Luxurious Lenovo IdeaPad U300s Review, by Jon L. Jacobi November 15, 2011 If there's a ...

Tasteful design, well-madeComfortable keyboard, smooth trackpadInsanely fast boot time, runs cool
No SD slotNo backlit keyboardLow-res display
On tap here: fast performance, a tasteful design and the best keyboard / trackpad we've yet seen on an Ultrabook. It's too bad, then, that at this price it's missing key features like a memory card slot, higher-res display and backlit keyboard....
