Perfect for College!
Date: April 25, 2013
Pros: Battery, Weight, Processor, Durability, Memory, Keyboard/peripherals, Screen size
Cons: touchpad
"I absolutely love my Lenovo! I bought this Ultrabook in the Ruby Red color and it is absolutely gorgeous! I bought my computer 9 months ago and have not had any problems with it so far. I love it for my college classes because it is light and easy to tuck away into my backpack. It also fits easily on my desk and the keyboard is fairly quiet to type on. I bought an external cd/dvd drive to use with my computer, but haven't needed to use it yet. WThe touchpad can be a little sensitive sometimes, especially with the zoom function, but it just takes a little time to get used to. The only other drawback I found was that the home key is very close to the backspace key and I find myself hitting that on accident and then typing at the beginning of the line all of a sudden."

Decent laptop
Date: April 17, 2013
Pros: Input/Output compatibility, Processor, Memory, Storage
Cons: Battery, Keyboard/peripherals, Screen size
"This is the first laptop I own and so far, so good. However, the keyboard is a little too sensitive and I can't seem to type the letter "t" the first (or second time around). I need to consciously remember to press harder on the letter. Also, I do notice the keyboard flex and cover flex. It doesn't bother me too much but I do notice the flex. It would be great if the keyboard is backlit but I understand this is a budget ultrabook. I prefer Windows 7 but Windows 8 is growing on me."

The key pad really bothers me

Pros: Processor, Included software, Software compatibility, Memory, Video card, Storage
Cons: Weight, Display performance, Durability
"I get this dull looking computers yesterday. Overall it works just fine except the key pad bothers me a lot. It feel so weak and
trembling while I was typing. Cannot understand the designer why the key pad should have such design. Feel it will fall apart anytime while you're using it."

School Laptop
Date: March 16, 2013
Pros: Battery, Weight, Processor, Memory, Wireless card, Keyboard/peripherals, Storage
Cons: Build Quality, Durability, all plastic
"I recently got this laptop for Christmas. The U410 is an excellent laptop as far as the value. Its relatively thin and not too heavy, so its easy to carry around. I mainly use it for school to write papers and complete online work.
Here are some cons.
Here are some cons.
1. The plastic frame around the screen tends to (un-pop) from the main base behind the LCD, this is easily fixable. Its a constant reminder of the compromises Lenovo made to keep it cheap. it doesn't effect functionality so its minimal, no biggie.
That is basically it, the laptop gets the job done. The keyboard is absolutely the best thing I have ever used. This laptop is on par with Lenovo's "DO" slogan.
In conclusion, If you are looking for a work laptop thats portable, and you take good care of your stuff, buy this."

Excellent But...
Date: March 3, 2013
Pros: Battery, Weight, Processor, Memory, Video card
Cons: Wireless card
"I've recently purchased this U410 laptop and it was easy enough to set up. The graphics card runs excellent. I can run World Of Warcraft on good. The battery live is good, running at full speed i still have 4 hours left. Running energy mode it will last 5-6 hours. The only bad thing: which is going to take some getting used to is the track pad. I'm used to have the track pad and 2 buttons separate. The weight of the computer is super light to make easy travel. That is the only problem i have with this laptop is the track pad when i game, Simple fix is get an external mouse."

"I've had this laptop for just over a week and I already love it! I bought it to use for University.
Pros:
- Fairly thin and light but still feels sturdy

- Multi-touch trackpad- less clicking and more tapping!
- Everything loads really fast- I've found it can start up in less than 10 seconds
- Aids in productivity- the design is clean and very functional
- Has many cool features that come with Windows 8

Touchpad problems almost deter from overall value
Date: February 24, 2013
Pros: Input/Output compatibility, Weight, Warranty, Processor, Durability, Software compatibility, Memory, Bluetooth, Video card, Screen size, Build Quality, Display resolution, Display performance
Cons: Support, Battery, Keyboard/peripherals, touchpad issues
"I bought this computer a few weeks ago and it has been running smoothly thus far. I'm not sure how I feel about Windows 8 over Windows 7, but Lenovo itself is superb (this coming from a lifelong Mac user). The only problems I've been running into, which I have found are extremely common, are that the touch pad sometimes forgets that it can do two finger scrolling and double finger tap as a right click. Restarting fixed the scrolling problem temporarily (it's an ongoing problem that seems to happen after opening certain common programs like Office), but I still have not found a solution to the right click problem, which is very annoying. I will contact customer service to see if they have any suggestions. Also, the battery dies very quickly."

Cannot upgrade to Windows 8
Date: February 22, 2013
Pros: Processor, Memory, Video card
Cons: Storage, Bluetooth
"Bought with Windows 7 and 39.99 deal to upgrade to Windows 8. Unfortunately, Lenovo has not released RapidDrive software for Windows 8. RapidDrive allows you to merge your SSD and HDD as one drive for the OS. This makes the bootup faster (using SSD) and have direct access for large disk space for your files and applcaiton (from HDD).
Am sticking to Windows 7 till the software update is released or spend more money to buy a bigger SSD."

Fantastic Ultrabook
Date: February 11, 2013
Pros: Battery, Input/Output compatibility, Processor, Memory, Video card, Wireless card, Keyboard/peripherals, Screen size, Build Quality, Storage
Cons: Display resolution, Weight
"Went into store planning to get a tablet, came out with this amazing laptop.
Pros: Great Battery Life, Well-built design. Very quick for a laptop (kudos to Lenovo for actually using the SSD part of the hybrid drive for the OS installation, some companies don't do that.), It is down-right gorgeous, AND VERY LITTLE BLOATWARE!
Cons: Wish it was 1920x1080 resolution, had to turn off the touch to click functionality on the touchpad it was a bit too sensitive for me, I kept clicking on things when I didn't intend to.
All in all a great laptop, I had never really owned a Lenovo laptop and from my experience thus far I will definitely recommend their products to any one of my friends or family members."

Pros: Battery, Weight, Processor, Support, Included software, Memory, Video card, Wireless card, Build Quality, Storage, Display resolution
Cons: Input/Output compatibility
"I am writing this only to refute those bad comments about wifi ( from looks like fake customers ) . I bought lenovo because I have used their product at my office before this. They are awesome , particularly the ThinkPad. I bought a i5 U410 this new year and it works absolutely fine. There is no problem with wifi. The laptop is light weight and slim. It is a complete value for money. It has win 8. ..I just paid $650 with tax. The only problem is it does not have a connector to LCD....by the way I am a techie"

wifi problems, stay away!
Date: January 25, 2013
Cons: Wireless card
"I bought the Lenovo U410 on Cyber Monday 2012. It had wifi connectivity issues, where download speed on wifi is terribly slow, as described in the tremedously long discussion log on the lenovo support site. After a while I gave up and returned the laptop, because it seems to be a design problem. The return process was pretty painless, so at least that was good. But I wasted time installing software and troubleshooting the wifi problem. So stay away."

WantedToLikeIt
Owned Product:1-6 months
I wanted to like this laptop.
Date: January 8, 2013
Pros: Battery, Weight, Memory, Keyboard/peripherals, Screen size, Display resolution, Display performance
Cons: Wireless card
"It is light, looks great, and has one of the better keyboards available now that we are in the era of tapping on chiclets instead of pressing actual keys. The display is crisp and bright. Long battery life. The trackpad has a nice feel to it.
But (and this is a very big "but"), I just couldn't get past the WiFi problem. The U410 constantly disconnected at both of two locations where as use the laptop on a regular basis. It gets really tiresome having to disable and re-enable the wireless adapter just to stay connected.
Another issue was with the trackpad two-finger scrolling. The driver would crash on a regular basis, and you'd have to restart to get trackpad scrolling again. When you're used to that feature, it's a pain to have to do without."

Date: January 6, 2013
Pros: Weight, Durability, Storage
Cons: Display resolution, Wireless card, Keyboard/peripherals
"The laptop itself is decent for the price, but there are flaws that made me regret buying the product. First, the wireless card. The wifi was fine from a short distance, but when moved any further the wifi ran terribly slow and dropped. Secondly, the keyboard. I noticed a lot more flex in the keyboard than i expected. the mouse was also problematic because it practically moved to where i was typing. Overall the laptop is fine but these flaws made me regret the purchase."

Great Machine but hate Windows 8
Date: January 2, 2013
Cons: windows 8
"This is really a nice machine, I like the 14 inch size. Overall, quality is nice. However, Windows 8 is a disaster, and it's not possible to order this with Windows 7, therefore, can only give this 1 star for overall rating. Downgrading to Windows 7 is not as easy I thought it would be, apparently due to the SSD cache and HDD combo. I'm going to talk to Lenovo sales tomorrow, and see if I can return it and get a Thinkpad, as it appears that I can order a Thinkpad with Windows 7. Can't express what a disaster Win 8 is...if I wanted a tablet OS, I would have bought a tablet....a touch interface on a notebook, is really not that useful. Don't have space to outline all the major issues with the Windows 8 interface."
