Press quotes
"Out of all the netbooks out there I really like the S10...I would definitely recommend the S10 to anyone looking to purchase a netbook. Overall ThinkComputers gives the Lenovo IdeaPad S10 10.2-inch Laptop a 9 out of 10 score and our Recommended Award!"
Leaving ThinkComputers, November 2008
"The Lenovo S10 has a very sleek design, and incorporates the reliability Lenovo is known for. In my personal opinion, the S10 is also the best looking Netbook of the year."
Leaving Gadling, November 2008
"Overall, I can highly recommend Lenovo's S-10 Ideapad as a great little laptop being sold at a reasonable price. It could give the Eee and Dell's new mini a run for the money. Apple, are you listening? Highly recommended."
Leaving TheStreet.com, October 2008
"There are a number of reasons why Lenovo's IdeaPad is one of the more exciting releases to date. First off, they are offering 10" diagonal screens on the IdeaPad S10... Secondly, Lenovo's build quality is generally perceived as one of the best in the notebook market, as their rugged ThinkPad series designs are likely to be seen in some form on the IdeaPad models. Thirdly, Lenovo is being aggressive with their pricing, offering the S10 out to market at $399 with an well-rounded feature set and a sleek, simply designed exterior."
Leaving Hot Hardware, November 2008
"We'll take two, thanks! ... Amazing combination of price and performance. Sophisticated, decidedly non-toy-like styling. Touch-typing is as easy as it gets in this category."

Press quotes
"The whole system is very glossy. It is a stellar, luxurious PC."
Laptop Computers, May 2008
"It's a slim and sexy ultraportable notebook that is a full-fledged system...The U110 is a high-end consumer notebook built to the specifications of an ultraportable business machine."
Leaving Geek.com, May 2008
"...it's one of the nicest and most stlylish PCs I have ever used."
Leaving Jupiter Research, May 2008
"The IdeaPad U110 is particularly appealing as 11.1" sub-notebook; the main striking thing about the design of IdeaPad U110 is probably the lid, its sizzling red-hot and has sort of florid pattern to it – not anything like we've seen in a notebook before."
Laptop Link, January 2008
"Here's the 11-inch. I want one soooooo bad now that I've seen it in person. ... 17-inch. Awesome"
Leaving CrunchGear, January 2008
"We caught some time with Lenovo's new Ideapads and they're pretty hot..."
Leaving engadget, January 2008
"The Lenovo IdeaPad U110 while not a UMPC or a Tablet PC is certainly an intriguing little small device. It is tiny and shiny and with that red cover will certainly stand out in a crowd. And guess what, for security how would you like to try Facial Recognition on for size? Well, that's what you will be able to do if you get your hands on this small device."
Gottabemobile.com, January 2008
"With a focus on the consumer market, Lenovo has announced their new IdeaPad line of notebooks, featuring touch sensitive controls, Dolby Home Theatre Systems, frameless screens, VeriFace for facial recognition, and unique paint textures."
Leaving Gottabemobile.com, January 2008
"Other interesting design notes include a backlit logo on the notebook's cover, a 6-in-1 card reader, and a unique drop-style hinge. Perhaps the coolest feature though is the facial recognition system that will allow Windows users to login to their notebook simply by sitting in front of the computer."

"Lenovo's IdeaPad Y710 breaks the company out of its traditional ThinkPad business market and into the consumer space."
Model: Y710
Leaving PC World - CES 2008, February 2008
"You'd think that most companies are going down the cheap, low-end laptop route (Eee PC) in order to differentiate themselves and bring in more customers, but Lenovo is one brand that still focuses on shoving in as many features as possible."
