The single fan on the left side of the U300s remains on most of the time but is quiet and non-intrusive. At maximum speed, it develops a slight whine but continues to be ignorable. The notebook chassis itself remains co...

  • 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. Last but not least it lacks a media card reader. On the plus side, the U300s has a great k...

If there's a laptop that deserves the moniker "Ultrabook" - a term that Intel introduced (and trademarked) earlier this year for a class of very slim and light laptops - it's the Lenovo IdeaPad U300s. Not because it's faster or beefier than the compet...
  • 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...
