Lenovo IdeaPad Y550

A few weeks after its smaller brethren, the Y450, peeked its head out, Lenovo’s IdeaPad Y550 is now available for purchase. The Y450, Y550, and Y650 were all announced at CES this year, but the Y650 was the only one to be immediately available for purchase. The Y450 became available a few weeks ago and now you can choose from all three of them.

As the names might imply, the models offer 14-inch (Y450), 15.6-inch (Y550), and 16-inch (Y650) screens. All screens are LED backlit and WXGA (1366×768) resolution. You also get the same audio system, multi-touch trackpad, and DVD burner on all models.

The Y550 currently offers the largest variety of configurations of the trio though. You can choose among different processors, RAM, integrated vs discrete graphics, hard drive size, and Bluetooth. The list prices go from $579 to $1199, but right now there’s an additional 10% off coupon to bring things down a bit more. Check out the baseline config you can pick up for $521 and hit the links below to see all the sales on these IdeaPads.
