It was time for a change for
Lenovo! The popular Chinese company revealed on Thursday a brand new line of notebooks
that will target people interested in using their computers mainly as entertainment
tools. The three products that Lenovo unveiled on Thursday fall under the new
IdeaPad brand, which is the consumer side of the company’s mobile PC business. Until
the new IdeaPad brand, Lenovo was best known in the United States
for its ThinkPad line of business notebooks.
However, it seems that the
Chinese company wants more than creating tough business mobile computers! And the
IdeaPad Y510, Y710 and U110’s features are smart enough to launch Lenovo ahead of
many rivals. The three brand new notebooks are powered by Intel’s dual-core
Centrino mobile platform, they have five Dolby Home Theater speakers, Wi-Fi
support, DVD/CD recordable combo drives, frameless screens, touch-sensitive
control surfaces and other features. Interestingly enough, Lenovo equipped its
new notebooks with facial-recognition technology for security purposes.
Lenovo’s brand new notebooks’
main rivals are represented by HP’s Pavilion entertainment notebooks and Dell’s
XPS line. They all combine sleek design with smart features for playing and
organizing video and music tracks. Still, Lenovo bets on its new notebooks’
design, their VeriFace Face Recognition software and Dolby Home Theater system
to differentiate them from HP and Dell’s similar products.
