Lenovo IdeaPad Y460p
$849.00
Released January, 2011
The Pros:Excellent performance for the price with plenty of high end CPU/GPU options available to users. High performance parts in a portable package. Reasonable battery life considering the components, but users should be aware of the battery life hit with more powerful options.
The Cons:No switchable graphics, unacceptable for a portable notebook released in 2011. Lower battery life that similar products, mainly due to Core i7 processor and dedicated graphics options, buyers who want battery life will need to weight their priorities. Lenovo disabled integrated graphics at BIOs level, stuck on dedicated graphics, contributes to the battery life issue.
The Lenovo IdeaPad Y460p is a laptop designed as a multimedia entertainment system. This is similar to the Lenovo IdeaPad Y560p, but has a smaller 14 inch display. Apart from that they are the same, and use a 16:9 screen aspect ratio with a fast Intel Core processor to deliver high definition multimedia content.
