Lenovo IdeaPad U160 Pro Reviews

expertreviews‘s review Edit

Around the same size and price as a netbook, but more powerful and with a higher screen resolution – an excellent budget choice.

If you're after a small ultraportable with a decent battery life and performance enough for running work applications with ease, the IdeaPad U160 is great value at this very competitive price.

Engadget‘s review Edit

After spending the last few days with the IdeaPad U160, we've come to the conclusion that the laptop is only for the few that demand more processing power than some of the other ultraportables on the market, yet are willing to put up with a few annoyances to have it. No matter how you look at it, these days $1,150 is a lot of money to shell out on a smaller machine, especially when other laptops out there that are just as light, run longer on a charge, and cost less -- just take the $799 13-inch Toshiba Portégé 705 or $450 Acer Aspire One 721. Yes, the U160 packs more CPU power, but at the end of the day you'll have to live with the heat and battery drain that it ultimately causes. And frankly, we wouldn't wish that upon anyone.

Notebookcheck‘s review Edit

Lenovo offers its smallest subnotebook in interesting configurations available from 499 Euro. Our Lenovo U160 M436GGE was representative of the high-end version with a Core i5-520UM (from 675 Euro). The computing performance should have been on par with that of the Acer Timeline X 1830T (11.6-inch), though an improperly functioning Turbo Boost feature prevented the i5-520UM from reaching its full potential. All processor, graphics and application benchmarks have arrived at this same result.
