Lenovo IdeaPad U1 Hybrid
$1,000.00
Released June, 2010
The Pros:Great claimed battery life of 8 hours in tablet mode, 10 hours in laptop mode. Extremely slim. Respectable price for a 2-in-1 design.
The Cons:Pre-production display has horrible viewing angles. Pre-production Skylight interface is quite laggy. Seperate storage, operating system experience, etc... can get frustrating for the average every-day user.
