PC Perspective posted a review on the Lenovo IdeaPad Y480
Not bad, huh? The Y480 is formidable on paper despite its 14-inch display. And get this – our review unit is not a high-end model. Nope. It’s a basic, no-frills version that sells for $949 on Lenovo’s website at this time. You can spend a lot more if you’d like, but there’s not much point. All models are similarly equipped and the upgrades obtained for additional coin only impact components such as the hard drive and optical drive.Lenovo IdeaPad Y480 Review: Taking The Good With The Bad
If you want a reasonably portable laptop that also has a lot of power at a low price you should still give the Y480 consideration. With that said, the larger Lenovo Y580 offers an even better performance value (it has similar hardware but packs the GTX 660M for about $50 more) and the ThinkPad T430s is more functional and portable. The Y480 will only be the best choice if you have very specific needs.
