Lenovo ThinkPad Edge S430 Review

Rating: 8.0.

If you are in the market for a new laptop, then there are certainly no shortage of options available today. We tend to focus on gaming machines at Kitguru, however today's review product will appeal to a business user who values performance, portability and build quality. The Lenovo ThinkPad Edge S430 is designed for productivity, equipped with a fast Intel Core i5 processor, Nvidia Optimus graphics and 4GB of DDR3 memory.

Lenovo have a range of laptop computers designed specifically for the business user. The Edge S430 is targeted at the ‘small business' user, weighs less than 1.8KG and has a rated battery life around 6 hours.

For a frequent flyer, this machine looks to be an ideal choice, especially as it uses an almost identical keyboard to the class leading unit incorporated into the ThinkPad X1 back in September last year.

• 2GB NVIDIA® discrete graphics with Optimus™ technology
• Integrated DVD reader/writer or second HDD
• Trusted Platform Module
• Progressive, clean design in soft-touch mocha black
