Lenovo Philippines just launched their very own ultrabook last night, the IdeaPad U300. We saw the U300 ultrabook last week in Singapore and was impressed by the design and slim profile that’s reminiscent of the earlier IdeaPad U260.
There will be several configurations of the IdeaPad U300 but Lenovo shares the maximum specs as stated below:
It is powered by up to 2nd generation Intel® Core™ i7 processor with Intel® Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 and is equipped with Enhanced Experience 2.0 RapidDrive SSD technology# that speeds up boot up time in as little as 10 seconds. The U300s also comes equipped with premium features such as a 16:9 widescreen HD display, 4GB DDR3 memory and up to 256GB of SSD storage. It also includes features like Bluetooth®, high-speed 802.11n Wi-Fi, USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 connectors, as well as an integrated 1.3M (720p HD) webcam.
The variant that they will be releasing in the Philippines this January is the ff.:

Wow. I want! Haha. Looking forward to a review of this Sir Yuga!
128GB SSD…wala bang version na nde ssd?
malabo yan… i doubt kung may kakasya na regular-sized laptop hard drive sa sobrang nipis na U300.
edi mag Acer S3 ka, kaso panget naman body kasi plastic lang.
Waaaaaaay too expensive for a notebook with a lousy graphics card. Talo.
trolololol. ULTRAbook. not the same as a regular notebook which is 2 or 3 times thicker. so definitely no dedicated graphic card. i wonder when the amd llano powered ultrabooks are gonna come out.
