The IdeaPad U310 13.3" Ultrabook Computer, now in (Graphite Gray), features a 3rd generation Intel Core-i5-3317U processor running at 1.7GHz, 4GB of DDR3 1600MHz RAM and a 500GB hard drive with a 24GB solid state drive thrown in for faster access to often used programs. The 24GB cache drive will ensure quicker startup times for the Windows 8 operating system as well.
The graphics are presented through the 13.3" LED backlit display, with a native 1366 x 768 HD resolution and a 16:9 aspect ratio for viewing movies in widescreen. It's powered by an Intel HD 4000 Graphics processor, and includes an HDMI out port for viewing your graphics on a larger monitor or HDTV. The unit is also WiDi capable, so you can wirelessly stream your digital media to any WiDi enabled device.
Other networking features include an RJ45 10/100 Mbps Ethernet connection, Bluetooth 4.0 and of course, 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi. There's even an integrated 1.0MP webcam and microphone for Internet calling and social media interaction.
The form factor on this Ultrabook is slim - only 0.7 inch thin when closed, and less than 4 lbs. It can be thrown into a briefcase or laptop bag and carried all day without putting a strain on your shoulder. The 7 hour rating on the battery ensures a full-day of productivity (battery life will differ according to usage and configuration of your laptop).
As with all Lenovo laptops, this one includes a wide variety of programs, including Evernote, Skype, Amazon Kindle, Lenovo Cloud Storage by SugarSync and Microsoft Office 2010 - Free 60 Day Trial. The Lenovo U310 series is ready to go when you are - it's light, portable and powerful.
