The Lonevo S10-2 is a beautiful and ultra portable netbook. It is not the most powerful 'laptop' on the market but for surfing the web and word processing it is perfect.
POSITIVES
Gorgeous Design
Ultra Portable
3 USB Ports
Card Reader
Never gets very hot
NEGATIVES
1. Big Negative and why it gets one star. There is a design flaw in the plastic monitor frame. After a few months a crack develops which is constantly spreading. This is not as a result of a bump or a drop (my laptops are treated with kid gloves) but in my opinion due to pressure on the frame from the hinge itself.
The crack develops close to and on the laptop hinge. I have read other reviews online referring to the same problem at the left hinge or both hinges, so there is clearly a design flaw. To compound the problem Lenovo does not wish to honor this flaw as a warranty claim. For this alone I would suggest persons NOT buy this product.
2. Small keyboard is okay to use for short periods of time, but any lengthy typing is strenuous.
3. There is a problem with the sleep mode where it will wake up on its own while it is closed and this results in the battery being drained or the machine getting very hot if left in a case.
4. The speakers are very poor and located under the keyboard. As such headphones will be needed to properly listen to audio.
In summary I would love to love this laptop. I really wish everything was perfect with it. But it has a terrible design flaw and a manufacturer who appears yet to recognize and admit it. As such avoid the headache and avoid this machine. There are many other options in the same price range with the same specs.Get more detail about Lenovo S10-2 10-Inch Black Netbook - 6 Cell Battery.
