This is an awesome ultrabook. fast, thin. and light.
The quality of graphic is not superb however ok for general use. Booting takes a couple of seconds .. happy with that. Touchpad loses enhancement (multitouch and scroll) function in several minutes after system on, but I'm expecting that lenovo will release new driver. I love back-lit keyboard, especially in the night time.
Good product. matches money value.

Very nice looking laptop with good specs. Only problem was crazy jumpy touchpad cursor. Cursor had a mind of its own and would move around with no one touching the pad. Tried latest drivers, playing with Control Panel settings, and calling Lenovo but never got it to work correctly. Googled "Lenovo U510 touchpad problems" and found lots of complaints. I ended up returning it.

    The laptop look very sleek and good. It was very quick and had great performance, the only thing that made me felt sorry about the product was that the mouse pad jumps all over the screen randomly, right from the day i purchased the laptop. I had to buy an external mouse to overcome this issue. But not evryone would like such an alternative.

    Hi anyone considering this laptop. Before you buy it, do a search for Lenovo U510 touchpad problem. There is a KNOWN hardware fault with this laptop all over the the Lenovo support site, where the touchpad does not work properly. It is NOT fixed by downloading new drivers. The laptop I ordered from Staples had this problem, and Lenovo will only allow it to be returned for repair - they will not provide a replacement. That takes a minimum of 7 days. Save yourself a big headache and buy something else.

      I think it's going to be a very nice home computer, but Windows 8 is a challenge for me at this point. I haven't found anything not to like except the operating system, and the lack of a printed manual.

          If you desire you can install Windows 7 on the Lenovo Ideapad laptop. You'll have to format the partition that Windows 8 is installed on.

        • A:

          In most cases, you would need to install Windows 7 by purchasing a brand new copy. Some machines come with downgrade rights that allow you to just install Windows 7 over Windows 8 (you would just need your old disc and product key).
