    Hey everyone. I have several questions about this laptop. I heard great reviews on it and it fits right into what I want, a budget laptop with good battery life and decent processing speeds. However, I just found a model on the Lenovo website called U430P and its quite cheap. Is there a difference between that version and another version? If the only difference is the touch screen or something, I'd buy it right now. What does the P even stand for? Also, last question, how does the eCoupon on the Lenovo website work? Is it immediately used on the order? Thanks and sorry for any typos, I'm typing from my phone.

    No quite sure about the P model, but I tried the U430 that Best Buy sells and could not stand the resolution of the screen. The colors sucked on it! Viewing angles were horrible and the touchpad felt loose. I returned it the same day for a Y2P. Good luck

    I guess its the non-touch version.
