Lenovo Y710 & Y510
With the durability and engineering of the ThinkPad, Lenovo is launching a stylish version of their notebooks called the IdeaPad in early January. Models include the Y710 targeted to gaming and entertainment users and the Y510 for the all-in-one user. Key features include those borrowed from the ThinkPad such as an air-bag-like device that is designed to protect data during a fall and the popular comfort keyboard, as well as other features such as Dolby Home Theater system, 6-in-1 card reader, and face-recognition technology that allows users to instantly log on to their computer by looking at the screen (The computer takes a photo of the user, and matches it against a database of registered users.). Lenovo has been known for the plain, black business notebooks but is now making its move into a very crowded consumer market to compete against the likes of Apple, HP, Dell, Acer, Toshiba, Sony, and more. With all the notebooks making a fashion statement, Lenovo is pricing their product in the high-end range of $799 - $1199.
