In Pictures: The best new Ultrabooks

A wave of Ultrabooks -- light, thin laptops that have more capabilities and fewer compromises than ever -- is hitting the market. Here's a look at some of the current crop

Lenovo IdeaPad U310

The Lenovo IdeaPad U310 performs well, as long as you’re not looking to do anything fancy. It has loud, if sometimes thin, speakers and a good-looking but dim screen. It also has decent, but not great, battery life. As with many Ultrabooks, the port selection is modest, but they include two USB 3.0 ports, an HDMI-out, and an ethernet connection. At the end of the day, the U310 will most likely appeal to college students and other young, budget-minded shoppers who will like its bright, fun colors.
