Lenovo IdeaPad U110

Feather light & feature rich Lenovo's IdeaPad U110 raises the standard in mobile computing

The first thing that came out of my mouth when I removed the Lenovo IdeaPad U110 from box was "This is Amazing." The U110 is light, sleek, sexy and it comes in brilliant shade of red.

The Aluminum top cover with its textured pattern is durable and fingerprint resistant.

The U110 is not a Tablet PC. It is an award winning ultra portable ideapad notebook designed with the style and power for those that want their own sense of style reflected in their choice of mobile computer.

This sleek new Lenovo IdeaPad U110 weighs in at 2.4 lb and is only .72 of an inch thin so it can go anywhere you do without weighing you down and its powerful enough to get the job done

Lenovo IdeaPad U110 slides easily into a standard 9x 12 envelope

I look forward to becoming familiar with all of the new features in the Lenovo U110 including VeriFace face recognition

Preliminary Conclusion.....

The Lenovo IdeaPad U110 is the thinnest lightest computer I have ever had the pleasure of using. This lightweight is rich in features including some that i have never seen before such as Veriface and I find the bright red color to be very uplifting.

Feather light and feature rich the Lenovo IdeaPad U110 is a dream come true for those who want it a computer that reflects their own sense of style.

Outside in the Shade

The Lenovo IdeaPad U110 shown above does not have an outdoor display,
but as you can see for yourself when it is not in direct sun the screen is still crisp. clear and easy to see.
