With its magnesium alloy chassis and orange (or brown), cap and base, Lenovo IdeaPad U260 is a head-turner. It is the world's first 12.5-inch ultraportable notebook and has a low voltage Intel Core i5 processor under the hood. So, how does the machine fare in real world usage?

Heat
Heat levels are normal. Lenovo airy design of the keyboard and Intel Advanced Cooling techniques to help keep the laptop cool during rada.Područja reasonably close to the rear vents below the screen

performance
