Reviews for the Lenovo IdeaPad S400-MAY9BGE
Source: Comp Reviews

For those that want a low cost touchscreen based laptop, the Lenovo IdeaPad S400 Touch is a very attractive offer. The relatively compact and light system offers a smooth enough overall experience which is useful for the new user interface of Windows 8. It certainly isn't going to be winning any performance marks but is close enough to the competition.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.
The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.
