Touted as the slimmest ultra book around, the gadget has a lot to offer than just superb looks. Here is a face-to-face spec tale of the Lenovo kid against the Apple Macbook Air and Macbook Pro 2013.

Apple weighs slightly less than Lenovo here but the cable story takes the cake away from the latter. With Apple’s connector coupled with the Macbook Air, the crown for the winner rests atop Apple. As far as the Macbook Pro is concerned, the metal body again takes a beating against the carbon-bodied Lenovo ultra book.
