Lenovo IdeaPad S10-2 Review Roundup

Remember the Lenovo IdeaPad S10-2 netbook that was announced last month? It's the second generation of 10-inch netbook from Lenovo with quite some improvements over the first generation. The pink colored Lenovo S10-2 is currently available for order on Amazon for $329.99, and will comes with 1.6GHz N270 Intel Atom Processor, 1GB RAM, 160GB 5400rpm hard drive, and 6-cell battery.


According to most reviews done on this netbook, the Lenovo S10-2 is definitely much better than the first generation of IdeaPad S10. Lenovo has tried removing most of the complaints on the S10 model in producing a better new S10-2.

First, the external design of S10-2 looks better than its predecessor. It has a rounder look, a glossy cover with a repeating pattern that looks strikingly similar to Target’s Bullseye, and available in 4 colors including pink, white, gray, and black.

Second, the keyboard and touchpad of the S10-2 has a much improved design in terms of ergonomics. The pitch of the keys are wider, and the multi-touch trackpad has been expanded.

Third, the features of IdeaPad S10-2 has improved. It comes with a standard 6-cell battery (instead of 3-cell in S10), 3 USB ports (instead of 2 in S10), a glossy 10.1-inch display, and a new option for 3G modem. Also, there's a quick start function that enable this machine to be booted up in just 10 seconds, according to this review by DK.

And finally, the greatest part is the price. Despite all the improvements that Lenovo has made on the S10-2 model, the price remain in the comparative range in the market.

Now let's look at what other reviews say about the IdeaPad S10-2:

Laptop Magazine
"Lenovo improved upon its already solid netbook with its s10-2, but also dropped the price to be in line with many other netbooks on the market. The $349.99 netbook is exactly what any second generation product should be - remarkably improved and even more affordable."

GottaBeMobile
"I think a lot of consumers will be attracted to the S10-2’s designs, but I wish it had a matte display like the S10."

DK.SG
"If you like the Lenovo S10, I’m sure you will definitely love the Lenovo S10-2."

In short, Lenovo has no doubt produce a much better 2nd generation netbook to stay competitive in the netbook market, but there are still room for improvement if they want to compete with other top netbooks such as the Samsung NC10 and ASUS Eee PC 1005HA.
