Lenovo IdeaPad Y480 Review: Taking The Good With The Bad

news · July 6, 2012

Not bad, huh? The Y480 is formidable on paper despite its 14-inch

display. And get this Â– our review unit is not a high-end model. Nope.

ItÂ’s a basic, no-frills version that sells for $949 on LenovoÂ’s

website at this time. You can spend a lot more if youÂ’d like, but

thereÂ’s not much point. All models are similarly equipped and the

upgrades obtained for additional coin only impact components such as

the hard drive and optical drive.

Quote: "If you want a reasonably portable laptop that also has a lot

of power at a low price you should still give the Y480 consideration.

With that said, the larger Lenovo Y580 offers an even better

performance value (it has similar hardware but packs the GTX 660M for

about $50 more) and the ThinkPad T430s is more functional and

portable. The Y480 will only be the best choice if you have very

specific needs."

Thanks for posting our news!!
