BERLIN – September 1, 2011: Lenovo
(HKSE: 992) (ADR: LNVGY) sashays into the fashion world with three new
luxury laptops, the IdeaPad U300s Ultrabook™, and the U300 and U400
laptops. Bridging haute couture with superior technology, these laptops
are designed for fashion-minded consumers who want a product that is
stylish, yet also powerful and productive; the ultimate fusion for
individuals who take technology and fashion seriously.
“The
new IdeaPad U Series laptops from Lenovo provide style mavens
everything they need in a slender, mobile and super chic package,” said
Yao Yingjia, vice president, Innovation Design Center, Lenovo. “The
U300s, U300 and U400 laptops are the perfect luxury accessory this
season, liberating consumers on the go to combine productivity and
entertainment in one stylish device.”
“People
will be wowed with the new U Series systems from Lenovo that combine
incredible performance in beautiful and stylish designs,” said Mooly
Eden, vice president and general manager of Intel’s PC Client Group.
“Powered by our 2nd Gen Core processors, this system will
deliver great capabilities with a wonderful user experience and long
battery life that people increasingly want. We’re particularly excited
by Lenovo’s innovation and as one of the leading time to market partners
in the new ultrabook category with the U300s device that combines a
no-compromise, must-have mobile experience with performance, security,
responsiveness and style.”
IdeaPad U300s Ultrabook. The spectacularly slim U300s Ultrabook™, made possible with Intel, is a
unique statement for consumers that equally value style and
responsiveness. Featuring up to 2nd generation Intel®
Core™ i7 processor with Intel® Turbo Boost Technology 2.0, and boot up
in as little as 10 seconds with Enhanced Experience 2.0 RapidDrive SSD
technology1, the U300s is ready to roll no matter what the
task. The U300s has a 13.3" ultra-slim 16:9 widescreen HD display, 4GB
DDR3 memory and up to 256GB of SSD storage.
At just 0.6 inches (14.9mm) thick2, the
U300s is built from a single-piece aluminum shell to create a sleek and
lightweight product weighing in at less than three pounds. Available in
Graphite Grey or limited-edition Clementine Orange – the trendy colors
have been applied through an electrolytic process, and sandblasted to
create a perfect, scratch-resistant coating.
Other smart technologies include the one-of-a-kind Breathable Keyboard, an Intel®
Advanced Cooling Technology that allows air to flow in through the
keyboard and out of the sides and rear hinge. This design removes the
need for vents on the underside of the notebook – making it ideal for
long periods of use on your lap or even on a pillow!
Despite
its ultra-slim design, with the Lenovo Long Life Battery, the U300s
provides up to eight hours of productive use or an incredible 30 days on
standby. And with Lenovo RapidCharge its battery can be charged to 50%
capacity in just 30 minutes.
Also
included is Bluetooth®, high-speed 802.11n Wi-Fi, USB 2.0 and USB 3.0
connectors, as well as an integrated 1.3M (720p HD) webcam.
IdeaPad U300 and U400 Ultraportable Laptops. The IdeaPad U300 and U400 are the epitome of stylish, ultra-slim laptops, brimming with intelligent technologies that let consumers do more, with less. The U300 and U400 laptops come with 2nd generation Intel® Core™ processors and feature boot up times of under 17 seconds thanks to optional RapidDrive SSD technology. The U300 features a 13.3” HD display while the U400 has a 14” HD display and AMD Radeon™ HD5470M 1GB graphics.
