If you’re a keen observer, then you could notice such events of cloning several renowned devices to create cheaper yet less impressive products.

Well, Chinese PC makers have some sort regarding to it. There is this particular notebook from Shenzhen-based Rahway Technology that is believed to be both MacBook Air and Lenovo X220i inspired unit.

The notebook has a 13.3-inch wide panel with a 1366 x 768-pixel display resolution. It features an Intel Core i3-2350M Sandy Bridge processor and equipped with 2 GB of RAM. Also, this laptop contains a HDMI output, a USB port, and even a SIM card slot for 3G functionalities.

But this device isn’t categorized as an official ultrabook entry. Since according to Intel, the ultraportable guidelines to serve include a solid state storage and should have at least below 1 inch of body thickness. Wherein this case, the Chinese notebook doesn’t have SSD, rather, just the 320 GB of hard drive. Also, it happens to be an inch thick—not as slimmer as it must be.

The laptop offers various colors including silver, red and black version.

Users who own a Lenovo IdeaPad S10-2 netbook can now transform the LCD display of their device into a Pixel Qi 3Qi hybrid display. Using a Pixel Qi DIY kit from MAKE magazine’s Makershed, this modification gives users the chance to select among three screen modes: a black and white mode, a high resolution full color mode, and an e-paper mode for glare-free reading with ample ambient light.

This hybrid type of screen allows users to save from 0.5 to 2 W of power and prolong the battery life of the device which uses it. Originally, the Lenovo IdeaPad S10-2 netbook comes with a 10.1-inch WSVGA LED-backlit display with a resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels.

On the front, the Pixel Qi screen is matte as compared to the glossy Lenovo display. On the rear side, it comes with an inverter that works with the Lenovo S10-2. The original Lenovo display may be opened through an X-Acto knife and a screwdriver.

Users are warned, however, that the replacement is generally advisable only for experienced technicians, as it requires some level of difficulty especially with the opening of the device. It will likely also void warranties on the gadget.

It takes approximately 15 to 25 minutes to install the Pixel Qi 3Qi screen.
